Greedy for Corduroy
Cords of Desire: A Melodic Quest for Self-Expression
Lyrics
She wanted the cords
Desire for corduroy fabric
She wanted the flared cords
Specifically, she desired flared corduroy pants
With the high waist
Preference for high-waisted corduroy pants
And she wanted to find
Expressing the wish to discover the perfect musical chords
The perfect chords
Searching for ideal musical elements to compose a song about someone
To sing her song about you
Intention to create a song, possibly romantic, related to the person mentioned
'Cause she wanted you too
Confirming the desire for the person mentioned
She wanted to wear
Expressing the desire to wear corduroy pants
The cords to his house
Specifically, wanting to wear cords to the person's house
He has ugly bathroom
Commenting on the person's less attractive bathroom
With a perfect mirror
Highlighting a perfect mirror in the otherwise unattractive bathroom
And she wanted
Expressing the desire to capture an image of her waist
To take a photo of her waist
Specifically, wanting to take a photo while wearing cords in front of the mirror
In the cords, in the mirror
Reiteration of the desire to capture images in cords and the mirror
In the cords, in the mirror
-She knows they
Awareness of others viewing the behavior as narcissistic
Think it's narcissistic
Recognition that there's a perception of narcissism
But to her it's holistic
Justifying the behavior as holistic from her perspective
Each unartistic snap
Referring to unartistic photos taken, indicating self-acceptance
Solidifies her world it is
Suggesting that each photo reinforces her perception of the world
Or as she wants it to seem
Repetition emphasizing the desire to control how her world appears to others
Or as she wants it to seem
-Or as she wants it to seem
-Or as she wants it to seem
-She wanted the cords
Reiteration of the desire for corduroy fabric
She wanted the flared cords
Reiteration of the specific desire for flared corduroy pants
