Lucy
Lucy's Journey: Unveiling Dreams and Deceptions
Lyrics
She had cheeks carved from chalkstone
Lucy's cheeks are pale, resembling chalkstone, suggesting a certain fragility or purity.
And a pair of celery eyes
Describing Lucy's eyes as "celery" implies a greenish color and perhaps a unique or captivating quality.
She'd win the minds of all the boys with that signature lipstick smile
Lucy's smile, adorned with signature lipstick, has a captivating charm that attracts boys.
She folded up her troubles into a paper aeroplane flight
Lucy copes with her problems by folding them into a paper airplane, symbolizing escapism.
And threw it back in the eyes of all those who sold her lies
She defiantly throws the paper plane, containing her troubles, back at those who deceived her.
But there's no time like never to squander all of your dreams
An admonition not to waste time on one's dreams, emphasizing the importance of pursuing them.
So watch out for this girl, 'cause she's not quite what she seems
A warning that Lucy is not as she appears, hinting at hidden depths or complexities.
One more step for Lucy
Repetition emphasizing the impact Lucy has on both day and night, suggesting a powerful presence.
She'll rock all your days
-And all of your nights
-One more step for Lucy
-She'll rock all your days
-And all of your nights
-She made her way to the city
Lucy's journey to the city, her absorption of clichés, and her creation of a compelling song that resonates with the youth.
Like all the clichés she'd read
-She soaked up every word she heard
-And churned them up in her head
-She spun a wicked lyric and sang that kind of tune
-That wormed its way into all the kids' hearts
-And made them call it their own
-But there's no time like the present
An urging to live in the present and pursue dreams, with a caution to express love before it's too late.
To wake up and live in your dreams
Encouragement to confess love to Lucy promptly, as someone else might enter her life.
So if you really love then tell her quick
-Before someone else moves into her scene
-One more step for Lucy
Repetition emphasizing Lucy's transformative impact on both day and night.
She'll rock all your days
-And all of your nights
-One more step for Lucy
-She'll rock all your days
-And all of your nights
-There's a clock in the corner
Introduction of a symbolic clock with a deranged personality, representing the orderly passage of time and life's uncertainties.
And he's really quite deranged
-He's got every segment of your life
-Oh so neatly arranged
-There's a skeleton in his closet
-And he's not sure just what to do
-To hand himself on in
-Or to tick his last tock for you
-One more step for Lucy
Repetition reinforcing Lucy's ability to influence and captivate both day and night.
She'll rock all your days
-And all of your nights
-One more step for Lucy
-She'll rock all your days
-And all of your nights
