Get Yr Cake
Awaken Your Spirit: Embracing Life's Sweet Moments with Mallwalkers' 'Get Yr Cake'
Lyrics
Someday you'll miss the days
Someday, you will long for the past.
When the blood was in your veins
Reflecting on a time when vitality and energy were present in one's life.
You can't party when you're dead
Emphasizing the inability to enjoy festivities once life has ended.
You better get it in today
Encouragement to seize the moment and make the most of today.
So you better get a hat
Suggesting the acquisition of a hat as a symbol of celebration or uniqueness.
Better get a cake
Advocating for the preparation of a cake, possibly for a joyful occasion.
And we'll party like we mean it
Expressing an intent to celebrate enthusiastically and authentically.
To cause the dead again to wake
Alluding to the idea of reviving the spirit of the deceased through festivities.
Someday you'll miss the days
Reiteration of the sentiment that future nostalgia will encompass these moments.
When my eyes weren't always glazed
Recalling a time when the speaker's eyes were not always glazed, possibly referencing a clearer state of mind.
Toward the ceiling in my bed
Describing a scenario of lying in bed, gazing at the ceiling, and anticipating the fading of light.
Waiting for the the light to fade
Waiting for a transition or change, metaphorically represented by the light fading.
So go on and get that hat
Encouraging the acquisition of a hat once again for emphasis on celebration.
Better get that cake
Reiterating the importance of obtaining a cake for celebratory purposes.
And I'll live like I'm a queen and
Expressing a commitment to living luxuriously or happily.
Cause my dead spirit to wake
Linking personal fulfillment to awakening the spirit of the departed.
Someday you'll miss those days, someday
Restating the idea that, in the future, there will be a longing for these present times.
