I Know Exactly What to Do
Navigating Life's Maze: Decoding Sahara Hotnights' I Know Exactly What to Do
Lyrics
There are a hundred pointers we don't
Expressing disregard for numerous pieces of advice or guidance.
Ever want to care about
Rejecting the idea of caring about certain things.
It's time for a policy they don't want to know nothing about
Advocating for a policy or approach that others prefer to ignore.
Common sense and reality words we don't like never did like
Disliking common sense and reality, possibly preferring a different perspective.
I have a cloud, beckons over me and the wrong and the right
Describing a personal struggle between right and wrong, symbolized by a metaphorical cloud.
Oh so far away from home
Expressing a sense of being distant from one's home.
I know exactly what to do
Confidently claiming to know the appropriate course of action.
Watch him go down and down
Observing someone's decline, possibly due to their actions.
And when we are first in line
Being in a position of priority or advantage.
And when we are satisfied
Reaching a state of satisfaction.
It's just a goodbye
Signifying a farewell or parting.
And we are struggling to make sense
Expressing difficulty in understanding or finding meaning.
Somehow we shocked the underworld
Indicating surprising or shocking the underworld, possibly a metaphor for society.
Looking for a house yeah
Searching for a home or stability.
Looking for a place where no-one can hurt us
Seeking a place of safety where no one can cause harm.
Looking like strangers
Presenting oneself as unfamiliar or distant from others.
And we are making ourselves heard
Making one's voice or presence known.
Oh so far away from home
Reiterating a feeling of being far from home.
I know exactly what to do
Confidently asserting knowledge of the appropriate action.
Oh so far away from home
Repeating a sense of distance from home.
I know exactly what
Emphasizing confidence in knowing exactly what to do.
I know exactly what to do
Reaffirming knowledge of the appropriate course of action.
