Lyrics
Let's go down to the fashion show
Expressing the intention to attend a fashion show
With all the pretty people that you don't know
Referring to the unfamiliarity of the people attending the show
We'll sit down in the velvet chairs
Describing the act of sitting in luxurious velvet chairs
They'll hand awards out for best hair
Anticipating the presentation of awards for the best hair
And if we don't win one, well, then
Contemplating the possibility of not winning an award
We'll blow off our heads in despair
Expressing a drastic reaction (blowing off heads) to not winning
We'll blow off our heads in despair
Reiteration of the extreme reaction to losing
I smell magic in the room
Sensing a magical or exciting atmosphere at the event
Flashing lights and sonic booms
Noticing bright lights and impactful sounds
Lovely saps all without a care
Referring to fashionable individuals seemingly carefree
Nobody said that the world was fair
Highlighting the unfairness of the world
And if they did say so, well, then
Considering a hypothetical assertion about the fairness of the world
We'll blow off our heads in despair
Repeating the extreme reaction if the world were fair
We'll blow off our heads in despair
Reiterating the extreme reaction to a fair world
Let's go down to the fashion show
Repeating the desire to attend a fashion show
With all the pretty people and piles of blow
Describing the crowd as attractive people with cocaine ("blow")
We'll sit down in the velvet chairs
Repeating the act of sitting in velvet chairs
And hang on tight to our bus fare
Emphasizing the importance of holding onto bus fare
And if it falls between the seats
Contemplating a potential loss of bus fare and the extreme reaction
We'll blow off our heads in despair
Repeating the extreme reaction to losing bus fare
We'll blow off our heads in despair
Reiterating the extreme reaction to losing bus fare
