Josie
Josie's Jersey Menace: A Pop-Punk Ode to Love and Chaos
Lyrics
Oh, Josie
The singer addresses Josie.
You may be from Jersey
Identifies Josie's origin as Jersey.
But you’re a menace, give me heart attacks
Accuses Josie of causing stress and anxiety.
So, here’s your awkward pop-punk track
The song is a quirky pop-punk tribute to Josie.
Oh, Josie
Reiterates addressing Josie.
Come on and show me
Invites Josie to showcase her style.
The way your movin’, groovin’, overload
Describes Josie's captivating and overwhelming presence.
Can you star this episode?
Asks if Josie can be the star of their story or relationship.
Can you star this episode?
-Oh, Josie
The singer questions their own worthiness to Josie.
Tell me if I’m worthy
Seeking validation from Josie about the singer's worth.
‘Cause to tell you how I feel is scary
Expresses fear in sharing emotions with Josie.
But fear is only temporary
Asserts that fear is transient.
Oh, Josie
Continued address to Josie.
I hope your lips will taste like mine forever
Expresses desire for a lasting connection with Josie.
Does waiting only make it better?
Contemplates if waiting enhances the experience.
I don’t know
Confusion about handling emotional situations.
How to handle situations
Admits difficulty dealing with feelings in situations.
Without my feelings complicating everything
Questions if complications are normal in such scenarios.
Is this how it’s supposed to be?
Uncertainty about the expected way of handling relationships.
At twenty-one you’re doomed to fail, so
Suggests struggles at the age of twenty-one.
Here’s to going off the rails for you
Willingness to go off-track for Josie.
So, here’s to all you put me through, Josie
Acknowledges the challenges faced due to Josie.
Oh, Josie
Asks if Josie thinks about the singer.
Do you think about me?
Wondering if the singer crosses Josie's mind.
When somebody’s filling up your Camry
Implies Josie's involvement with someone else.
Aren’t you getting sick of Jersey?
Suggests dissatisfaction with Josie's current situation.
Oh, Josie
Reiterates addressing Josie.
Wasted love and rent at Atlantic City
Refers to love and struggles at Atlantic City.
Gamble me away in pity
Metaphorically offers self in a desperate situation.
How to handle situations
Repeats confusion about handling emotions.
Without my feelings complicating everything
Continued difficulty with feelings in situations.
Is this how it’s supposed to be?
Reiterates uncertainty about normalcy in relationships.
At twenty-one you’re doomed to fail, so
Reiterates struggles at the age of twenty-one.
Here’s to going off the rails for you
Willingness to deviate from the norm for Josie.
So, here’s to all you put me through
Acceptance of the trials experienced due to Josie.
Na na na na na na na na
Repetitive vocal sounds, emphasizing emotion.
Na na na na na na na na
-Oooh
Emphasizes the sentiment expressed in the song.
So, here’s to all you put me through
Repeats acknowledgment of challenges faced.
Na na na na na na na na
-Na na na na na na na na
-Oooh
-So, here’s to all you put me through, Josie
Final acknowledgment of the difficulties caused by Josie.
