Gravity
Escaping Earth's Pull: Dennis DeYoung's Anthem Against Gravity
Lyrics
Gravity keeps pulling me down
Expressing the constant force of gravity affecting the speaker
Gravity keeps pulling me down
Reiteration of the gravitational force and its impact on the speaker
Gravity keeps pulling me down
Continued emphasis on the persistent pull of gravity
Gravity keeps pulling me down
Highlighting the inescapable nature of gravity
Gravity keeps pulling me down
Repeating the theme of gravity as a constant force
Gravity keeps pulling me down
Emphasizing the gravitational pull as a recurring challenge
Gravity keeps pulling me down
Underlining the continuous influence of gravity
I want to go to Houston, I want to fly to the stars
Expressing a desire to travel to Houston and reach the stars
But I may not have the "right stuff" to make the trip to mars
Acknowledging potential limitations in achieving space travel
'cause it's so hard for me to get my weight off the
Referencing the difficulty of overcoming personal challenges
Ground
Connecting the challenge to the force of gravity
Yes, it's that gravity it keeps pulling me down
Affirming that gravity is the obstacle holding the speaker down
I want to climb mount Everest, and find my shangri-la
Expressing a desire to climb Mount Everest and find bliss
Learn the secrets of the universe from the wise man in Nepal
Desiring wisdom from a wise man in Nepal
But it's so hard for me ? that mountain's so steep
Recognizing the difficulty of scaling the challenging mountain
I know my nose will bleed, 'cause gravity don't sleep
Anticipating physical challenges due to gravity
It don't sleep?
Questioning the relentlessness of gravity
I'm floating? I'm floating? Above the crowd
Describing a sensation of floating above worldly concerns
No tensions? No pressures? I touch the clouds
Expressing a state of freedom without stress or pressure
I'm flying? I'm flying? In ecstasy
Highlighting a euphoric experience of flying
My problems can't find me zero gravity
Emphasizing that problems are absent in zero gravity
Gravity keeps pulling me down
Reiteration of the gravitational force pulling the speaker down
That gravity keeps pulling me down
Restating the impact of gravity on the speaker
I want to be a driver at the Monaco grand prix
Expressing a desire to participate in the Monaco Grand Prix
Have the fastest car in Europe, and meet the royal family
Desiring a fast car, European experiences, and meeting royalty
But it's so dangerous ? it's not the speed that I fear
Acknowledging the danger associated with high-speed racing
It's just so difficult to get my motor in gear
Identifying the challenge of getting the motor in gear
I want to be a millionaire, and own a baseball team
Expressing a desire for wealth, ownership, and a luxurious lifestyle
Have a private jet for shopping trips, and a
Desiring material possessions and a life of luxury
Chauffeured limousine
Envisioning specific elements of a privileged life
And pay no income tax, and be healthy and sound
Expressing a desire for financial stability and good health
But it's my gravity it keeps holding me down
Acknowledging that gravity remains a hindrance to aspirations
