Lyrics

Lately I've been feeling deranged

The speaker has been feeling mentally disturbed or out of balance recently.

Is it psychosis or the stuff of the age?

They question if their mental state is due to a psychological condition or a reflection of the current times.

There's one thing that I know we can save

There's something worth preserving or salvaging despite the turmoil.

I'll call you later

A casual mention of calling someone later, possibly indicating a shift in focus or distraction.


It's time for us to roll on the show

It's time to showcase or present something.

I'm glad we finally caught that happy we go

Expressing joy about finally achieving a certain happiness or contentment.

Jeremy isn't digging their clothes

Someone named Jeremy disapproves of their fashion style, but this person is dismissed as a hater.

But he's a hater

Dismissing Jeremy's criticism as jealousy or negativity.


We're kidding ourselves if we ask

There's a self-awareness about fooling oneself if expecting a short-lived thing to endure.

For a 3 minute rocker to last forever

A 3-minute rock song isn't meant to last indefinitely, implying the fleeting nature of things.


I'm not kidding, I'm just happy to be

The speaker is genuinely happy to be involved, not joking about their feelings.

Sinking into you and watching TV

They find comfort in being close to someone and engaging in simple activities like watching TV.

Fred and Carrie and some gingery tea

Referencing specific individuals and a calming drink, setting a relaxed scene.

Out in the open

Enjoying this experience openly or in public.


Conversations with our favorite friends

Enjoying conversations with close friends.

The little pops that say to play them again

Small sounds or moments suggesting the desire to replay or relive those instances.

Reconciling and making amends

Seeking to resolve conflicts or repair relationships, but unsure if they'll remain valuable.

But are they golden?

Questioning the lasting value of these reconciliations.


We're kidding ourselves if we ask

Similar reflection on expecting transient things to persist.

For a 3 minute rocker to last forever

Reiteration that short-lived musical experiences aren't meant to endure.


We are the fools who demand

Admitting to being foolish for demanding something perpetual for the benefit of the band.

You do it for the good of the band, forever

Expecting the band or its members to commit indefinitely, possibly acknowledging the unrealistic nature of this demand.
