Slant Six
Chasing Dreams, Craving More: Unveiling the Slant Six Meaning
Lyrics
Youth, money, success and power
Youth, money, success, and power
Expressing your soul to critical acclaim
Expressing one's inner self to gain critical approval
Now you're insatiable--there's no stopping you
Feeling insatiable, unstoppable
If something lasts for a minute--it's scored a hit with you
If something is short-lived, it's considered successful to you
What are you gonna do for an encore?
What will you do next for an equally impressive performance?
C'mon baby after an act like that
After such an act, people will demand more
People are gonna scream for more
Expectation of continued success or brilliance
You've got Juan-Les-Pins
References the French Riviera town known for luxury
You got the needle and the deep cellar wine
Having access to expensive and refined pleasures
You've got the slow boat to China
Metaphor for a slow, relaxed journey to a distant place
You own part of South Carolina
Symbolizes ownership or control over something significant
How about wrapping your slant six
Suggests wrapping something valuable (symbolized by "slant six") around a place of inspiration
Around Inspiration Point?
Desire to connect a valuable aspect of oneself with a place of inspiration or solitude
Or I wanna be alone
Expressing a wish for solitude or privacy
That's your other choice
Indicating another option for solitude or isolation
You've got Juan-les-Pins
Reiteration of having access to luxury or desirable places
You've got the needles and the deep cellar wine
Repetition of possessing refined pleasures
You've got the slow boat to China
Repetition of a metaphorical slow journey to a distant place
You own part of South Carolina
Reiteration of ownership or control over something significant
That's what you were to the crowd
Recognition of the impact made on a crowd or audience
The imprint is indelible
The impression made is lasting and cannot be erased
Who the hell cares what you are now
Disregarding one's current status, focusing on the lasting impact
The soundtrack is too loud
Distraction caused by loud external factors
And everything's sweet except for
Everything seems good except for avoiding intellectual pursuits
Avoiding books and magazines
Not engaging with intellectual materials like books and magazines
What a fate to be imprisoned
Feeling trapped despite being at the pinnacle of one's aspirations
At the height of your dreams
Being confined at the peak of one's ambitions
You've got Juan-les-Pins
Reiteration of having access to luxury or desirable places
You've got the needles and the deep cellar wine
Repetition of possessing refined pleasures
You've got the slow boat to China
Repetition of a metaphorical slow journey to a distant place
You own part of South Carolina.
Reiteration of ownership or control over something significant
