Lyrics

Do I dare to guess my ETA again

Expressing hesitation or uncertainty about predicting the estimated time of arrival (ETA).

Seems I'm always 15 minutes late

Consistently arriving 15 minutes late, suggesting a recurring pattern of tardiness.

Rummage through the drawers and fix my face again

Searching through belongings to improve appearance, possibly indicating a desire for acceptance or conformity.

Swapping out my jeans

Changing clothes, symbolizing a transformation or desire to fit in.

And now my Uber driver's leaving

Uber driver leaving, potentially portraying missed opportunities or being left behind.

This party will go on without me

Fear of exclusion from a social event as the party continues without the person.

Turn up, act smart, look pretty

Advising oneself to appear confident and attractive in social situations.

Enough to try my luck

Expressing the hope to take a chance or seize an opportunity.

And I'll stick out like a sore thumb

Awareness of standing out in a negative way, possibly feeling out of place.

They'll leave me in the dust

Fear of being left behind or ignored by others.

If I'm just a wannabe

Concern about not being authentic or genuine in one's pursuits.

Running toward the wrong side of the station

Moving in the wrong direction, metaphorically representing a misguided effort.

Hurry didn't help my ETA

The rush did not improve the estimated time of arrival.

Halfway up the stairs when I forgot the destination

Forgetting the destination midway, symbolizing confusion or lack of clear goals.

There will always be another train

Assurance that there will always be other opportunities or chances.

Oh God, it's leaving

Feeling a sense of urgency as something important is departing.

This party will go on without me

Reiteration of the fear of being excluded from a social event.

Turn up, act smart, look pretty

Emphasizing the need to appear confident and attractive for social acceptance.

Enough to try my luck

Expressing a willingness to take chances or risks despite potential drawbacks.

And I'll stick out like a sore thumb

Awareness of standing out negatively, reinforcing a sense of social unease.

What's the use in rushing

Questioning the value of rushing or hurrying in the pursuit of goals.

If I'm just a wannabe

Concern about authenticity and the fear of not being genuine in one's pursuits.

Her clothes don't match

Observation of someone's appearance, pointing out discrepancies or imperfections.

Her hair's a mess

Highlighting physical imperfections but hinting at the potential for future success.

Looking like she's gonna be a great success

Positive outlook on someone's future despite their current appearance.

A million times

Repeatedly changing one's mind, suggesting indecision or uncertainty.

I changed my mind

Anticipating constant changes of mind, acknowledging a lack of consistency.

Always gonna be another reason why

Expecting continual reasons or justifications for certain actions or decisions.

This party will go on without me

Reiteration of the fear of being left out of social events.

And I'm the reason why

Accepting responsibility for being the reason why the party goes on without them.

Turn up, act smart, look pretty

Enough to try my luck
