Lyrics

Nice car where'd ya get your ride

Asking about the origin of the impressive car

A trophy? badge of honor? over compensation?

Questioning whether the car is a symbol of achievement or an attempt to compensate for something

Price tags! advertise yer pride

Noting that price tags are used to show off one's pride or status

Since when did what we paid for colored cloth

Raising the question of when the cost of material possessions began to determine our significance or importance

Gage our gravity?

Wondering when the value of what we own started defining our importance


You should be careful what you wish for

Advising caution regarding desires or aspirations

Cause everyone of us has the devil inside

Highlighting that everyone has their own struggles or inner demons

You should be careful what you wish for

Reiterating the caution about desires and their consequences

Cause all of what amounts becomes you

Stating that the culmination of one's desires shapes their identity


Nice watch man d'ya got the time

Inquiring about the time, possibly hinting at the perpetual pursuit of more time

There's never enough and it always goes too slow

Expressing dissatisfaction with the amount of time available, feeling it's insufficient


You should be careful what you wish for

Reiterating the warning about being mindful of desires and their potential repercussions

Cause everyone of us has the devil inside

Re-emphasizing that everyone has their own internal struggles

You should be careful what you wish for

Cautioning again about the potential consequences of desires and their effects on identity

Cause all of what amounts becomes you

Stating that the sum of one's desires shapes who they are


Yeah you got'cha little world

Acknowledging one's self-contained world, possibly an idealized or controlled environment

Picture perfect its a pearl

Describing this controlled world as perfect, precious, or valuable

Now go and try to sleep

Encouraging the individual to confront the consequences of their actions or decisions

In the bed you made

Suggesting facing the outcomes or circumstances that one has created or contributed to
