Fred Astaire
Dancing Through Life: Unveiling the Meaning Behind Me And Cassity's 'Fred Astaire'
Lyrics
All the world's awake
All the world is alert and active.
Did you catch the TV show?
Did you watch the television program?
Skies of ticker tape
Imagery of celebrations with confetti falling from the sky.
Stop the world as we know
Interrupt or halt the conventional world.
The stars will come and go
The famous personalities will appear and disappear.
And as the cameras came in close
As the cameras approached closely.
But nothing stops the show
Nothing halts the entertainment or spectacle.
Did you recognize me in slow-mo ?
Did you identify me in slow motion?
So, whisper in my ear
Share something intimate with me.
See, I was out in my best suit
I was dressed elegantly.
the words I long to hear
Desire to hear specific words.
Button downs, Italian boots
Wearing formal attire and stylish boots.
So let them say the world spins round to take us unawares
Others say the world's unpredictability catches us off guard.
Drag us down then leave us there
It pulls us down and abandons us.
Broke beyond repair
Financially or emotionally broken with no solution.
Let them eat their words
Let them face the consequences of their statements.
as we dance like Fred Astaire
Defying criticism by dancing gracefully like Fred Astaire.
Mondays coming down
The beginning of the workweek.
Did you see the reruns?
Did you watch the repeated episodes?
Just a lost man about town
Feeling lost in the city.
Me and Jackie like two blazing guns
Strong and impactful, like two guns.
This silence wears me out
Uncomfortable with the quietness.
And as we tore thru the shopping malls
Speeding through shopping centers.
Like a hometown losing crowd
Like a community facing a disappointing event.
Flying free like cannonballs
Feeling liberated but out of control.
So let them say the world spins round to take us unawares
Others perceive the world's unexpected nature.
Beat us down then leave us lost
It beats us down and leaves us directionless.
Broke beyond repair
Broken beyond repair, emotionally or financially.
Well see them eat their words
They will suffer the consequences of their words.
as we dance like Fred Astaire
Defying criticism by dancing gracefully like Fred Astaire.
like Fred Astaire
Reiteration of dancing like Fred Astaire.
Well see them eat their words
They will face repercussions for their words.
as we dance
Dancing elegantly like Fred Astaire.
like Fred Astaire
Continuation of the elegant dance reference.
