Loathable Rogue
Unveiling the Charismatic Rebel's Perspective
Lyrics
I could go along, say it's nice to meet you, see I never met you before
I express a willingness to engage in a polite introduction but emphasize unfamiliarity.
But we'll forgo such pleasantries when I stumble through your door
Suggesting a direct, unceremonious entrance into the person's life upon stumbling into their space.
I'd like to sleep the day away no man could ask for more
Expressing a desire for a leisurely lifestyle, perhaps hinting at escapism.
But ask I will and hope to find, you've got a whole lot more in store
Asking the person if they have more to offer or surprises in store.
And it doesn't matter who you are
Emphasizing that the identity of the person doesn't matter in the context.
You and I we won't get far
Highlighting a pessimistic view that the speaker and the person won't achieve much together.
You're just some girl with a pretty face, I picked up in Jimmy's bar
Describing the person as just a girl with a pretty face picked up in a bar named Jimmy's.
I go through life tongue in my cheek, this I'm sure you already know
Adopting a sarcastic tone, stating that the speaker navigates life with a sense of irony.
But some folks can't see through the trees and they entertain me so
Observing that some people are oblivious, and their actions entertain the speaker.
I am the rogue so loathable hated everywhere I go
Self-identifying as a loathable rogue, disliked wherever they go.
But we'll both wake up at 2:00pm with your tights wrapped round my throat
Imagining a shared morning scenario at 2:00pm with a provocative detail involving tights.
And it doesn't matter who you are
Reiterating that the identity of the person is irrelevant in the grand scheme.
You and I we won't get far
Reaffirming a pessimistic outlook on the potential success of the relationship.
You're just some girl with a pretty face, I picked up in Jimmy's bar
Repeating the description of the person as a girl with a pretty face from Jimmy's bar.
People say I'm too fast, I say their too slow
Addressing criticisms of the speaker's pace in life, dismissing others as slow.
I'd tell you of my plans tonight but I'm sure you already know
Indicating a reluctance to share plans for the night, suggesting the person already knows them.
And it doesn't matter who you are
Maintaining the notion that the individual's identity has no bearing on the situation.
You and I we won't get far
Restating the lack of optimism about the potential for success in the relationship.
You're just some girl with a pretty face, I picked up in Jimmy's bar
Reiterating the casual encounter at Jimmy's bar and the person's physical attractiveness.
