Axl will release the new album on 11/25 not as "Chinese Democracy", but as "Oh How Stephanie Hurt me" and will include a bonus tracks on the delux addition called" Don't Cry Stephanie", "Back off Stephanie" and "Get in the Ring Stephanie".

Catcher in the Rye is actually about Mark Chapman, who killed John Lennon, he was reading The Catcher in the Rye while he waited on the police to show up.

On an ordinary day
Back in an ordinary way
All at once the song I heard
No longer wouldn't play for anybody (the death of Lennon; the music stops)
Or anyone
That needed comfort from somebody
Needed comfort from someone who cared
To be
Not like you
And Unlike me
And then then voices ran away
From me
So now you set the wheels in motion
It Haunts our memories
You were the instrument
You were the one
How a body tipped a bottle
And Gave that boy a gun (his mother had given him the gun)
You Took our innocence
Beyond our scabs
Sometimes the only thing
You got at all
When no one else is there

If anyone can add to that with notes please do, those are just the lines which I can make sense of from that part..

  still a sad song tho

"If a body catch a body coming through the rye." - from the book, I think that's something to do with the
'How a body tipped a bottle' line you have... it definately sounds like 'body' again to me, and not bottle.

good effort =)

Catcher in the Rye

When all is said and done
We're not the only ones
Who look at life this way
That's what the old folks say
But every time I'd see them
Makes me wish I had a gun

If I thought that I was crazy
Well I guess I'd have more fun
Guess I'd have more fun

Ooh the Catcher in the Rye again
Ooh won't let ya get away from him
It's just another day like today

You decide
If I don't have to
Then they'll find
And I won't ask you
At anytime
Or long thereafter
If it's cold outside
As I'm imaging
How it's gonna be
(Oh oh)

(nah nah nah)

Ooh the Catcher in the Rye again
Ooh won't let ya get away from him
It's just another day like today

When all is said and done
We're not the only ones
Who look at life this way
That's what the young folks say
As if they'd ever change
That's not whom I to say
But every time I'd see them
Makes me wish I had a gun
If I thought that I was crazy
Well I guess I'd have more fun
Cuz what used to be's not there for me
And ought to find someone that belonged insane like I do


Oh no
(nah nah  nah)

On an ordinary day
Not in an ordinary way
All at once this song I heard
No longer would it play for anybody
Or anyone
That needed comfort from somebody
Needed comfort from someone who cared
To be
Not like you
Unlike me
And then the boy took that away
From me
So that he set the wheels in motion
Haunts our memories
You were the instrument
You were the one
How a body took the body
Gave that boy a gun
Took our innocent  s
Beyond our stares
Some type of omen
Then we got it
All alone with her to tell
