Bboling2204 Since: Feb 08 2 Houston, TX	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #1 Sep 19, 2008 How many times does Peter Yarrow have to tell people that Puff is just a children's song and that the lyrics should be taken literally. He used to do a monologue where he said that all songs could be interpreted any way that the listener wanted. To show how absurd this concept could be, he showed how even the Star Spangled Banner could be interpreted as a drug song. I definitely believe Peter since he was one of the lyricists. Bboling2204
