- Jawbreaker LyricsDeadly as the viper peering from its coil
The poison there is coming to the boil
Ticking like to time bomb
The fuse is running short
On the verge of snapping if it's caught
And all the pressure that's been building up
For all the years it bore the load
The cracks appear, the frame starts to distort
Ready to explode Jawbreaker
Crouching in the coner
Wound up as a spring
Piercing eyes that flash are shimmering
Muscles all contorted
Claws dug in the dirt
Every ounce of fibre on alert
The poison there is coming to the boil
Ticking like to time bomb
The fuse is running short
On the verge of snapping if it's caught
And all the pressure that's been building up
For all the years it bore the load
Ready to explode Jawbreaker
Crouching in the coner
Wound up as a spring
Piercing eyes that flash are shimmering
Muscles all contorted
Claws dug in the dirt
Every ounce of fibre on alert
Facts about Jawbreaker

✔️
When we consider what the writer meant by those haunting lines, Judas Priest’s track titled 'Jawbreaker' effectively illustrates the very fierce and overwhelming feelings of a person through the metaphor of an extremely poisonous snake, which is about to bite. The writer portrays this very feeling as so intense that it is akin to a bomb about to go off, meaning the person is just about to reveal his or her suppressed feelings or stress. Jawbreaker lyrics mainly speak of the very negative qualities such as, especially, angst, anger, anxiety, fury, and insecurity. On the other hand, the song also points to the necessity of the very tension and pressure and the very explosion or release that is about to take place. The lyrics contain the themes of pressure and tension, and thus, they may not be appropriate for very young children unless they have parental guidance. Even though there are no direct mentions of violence or adult content, the metaphors of 'time bomb' and 'exploding' might be quite dramatic and disturbing for some listeners.
