Welcome Back Victoria
Welcome Back Victoria: Unveiling Societal Hypocrisy Through Melodic Reflections
Lyrics
welcome back victoria
Welcome back Victoria
since you've gone you know that no-one's really missed you
Since your absence, no one has really missed you
welcome back victoria
Welcome back Victoria
and now your friends watch over everything
Now your friends are observing everything we do
that we-ee do
That we do
welcome back victoria
Welcome back Victoria
so the pendulum swings back
The situation swings back in your favor
welcome back victoria
Welcome back Victoria
you went away, OK
You left, it's okay, and we became a bit negligent
we got a little slack
There will be a return to covering up what you don't understand
and once again you'll cover up
Don't ignore or overlook things
what you don't understand
You can't avoid facing the truth
don't close your eyes
Don't avoid reality or truth by closing your eyes
you can't hide behind your hands
You can't hide from reality
welcome back victoria
Welcome back Victoria
we'll be no threat when we're deaf, dumb and blind
We pose no threat when we're unaware and uninformed
welcome back victoria
Welcome back Victoria
clean books, clean screens, clean words,
Appearances might be clean, but thoughts can be impure
dirty minds
There's a contradiction between outward cleanliness and hidden thoughts
i am a child of the sixties
The singer identifies as a child of the sixties, likely associated with a particular ideology of that time
and for that i must pay
They feel they're paying a price for their ideals
you wag your finger all you like
Despite criticism, the singer asserts their independence and defiance
i'll tell you something, it's my children
The future generations, represented by "my children," will be impacted
they'll have no choice but to say
They'll inherit the consequences of the actions taken
welcome back victoria
Welcome back Victoria
i trust your piano legs are covered up again
Hopeful that your flaws or vulnerabilities are once again concealed
welcome back victoria
Double standards are your expertise, then and now
double standards are you forte, now as then
Welcome back Victoria
welcome back victoria
Respect is shown to those who walk the streets (metaphorical) but a critical tone towards you
we'll tip our tophats to those who walk the streets, and you know what i mean, now
Be cautious about encounters on commercial street but an acknowledgment of your perceived security
welcome back victoria
Repeated welcoming back of Victoria
on commercial street be careful who you meet, but you're alright, jack
A warning to be cautious about interactions on a commercial street, while acknowledging a sense of safety
welcome back, welcome back, yeah
Repeatedly welcoming Victoria back
welcome back, welcome back, eehee hee
Repeating the welcome back in a playful manner
