Cheer Up
Navigating Celebrity Blues: Frenzal Rhomb's Insightful Take on Fame
Lyrics
I thought I saw you crying on the stage
I observed you appearing upset during the performance
It must have been embarrassing
It must have been a source of embarrassment
for some of your age
Especially for someone of your age
Success can't be that fun
Success may not be as enjoyable as it seems
You sweat, it makes your makeup run
Sweating causes your makeup to run
I guess that's why you're full of all that rage
Resulting in the accumulation of rage
It seems as though we're left behind
It appears that we, normal individuals, are left behind
'cause we're just normal guys
Because we're just ordinary guys
Haven't got the cash to empathise
We lack the financial means to empathize
Just cheer up
Encouraging the person to cheer up
Get over it
Overcome the difficulties
Cheer up you little whinging shit
Encouragement mixed with disdain
You bear your soul upon the lyric sheet
You reveal your emotions through your lyrics
The pain you feel behind closed doors
The pain you experience in private, despite your luxurious lifestyle
of your penthouse suite
In your extravagant penthouse suite
The tour bus and the backstage pass
Reference to the perks of fame - tour bus, backstage pass
The record company kiss your arse
The record company flatters you
The heavy burden of celebrity
The burdens that come with being a celebrity
It's not really hard to bear
Implying it's not genuinely challenging
Fucking easy life
Sarcastically highlighting the perceived ease of a celebrity's life
And maybe one day you will realise
Suggesting that one day they will realize the truth
Open up your eyes and
Encouragement to open one's eyes and see the reality
Cheer up
Reiteration of the directive to cheer up
It's the lucky few
It's a fortunate few who have the same profession as you
That do the job you do
Acknowledging the uniqueness of the person's job
Now let me wipe away those tears
Suggesting wiping away tears and indulging in expensive drinks
Take another pill, I'll buy you one of those expensive beers
Encouragement to take solace in substances or distractions
Send a statement to the press
Sending a message to the media about the stress of the profession
We'll talk about professional stress
Discussing the professional stress experienced
They don't know the pain you feel
Media doesn't comprehend the pain of million-dollar deals
of another million dollar deal
Referencing the stress of lucrative business agreements
So cheer up
Reiteration of the directive to cheer up
Don't be such a nob
Admonishing against being unreasonably upset
If it's so damn hard get a fucking job
If it's genuinely challenging, find alternative employment
Things don't look that bad
Positivity in the face of difficulties
You're rich so don't be sad
You're wealthy, so there's no reason to be unhappy
Chief there's nothing wrong
Asserting that there's nothing wrong
You're not in Frenzal Rhomb, so fucking cheer up.
Explicitly stating the person is not part of Frenzal Rhomb, hence should cheer up
