Lyrics
I'll only light 'cause you're my match.
Illuminating my life because you complement me.
admit it, I took out your trash.
Acknowledging that I've taken care of your problems.
there's stars in your eyes
Your eyes reflect stars, symbolizing brightness.
and they're shooting.
The excitement in your eyes is evident.
we never hung things on the wall
We avoided personal decorations but enjoyed music (Pixies and The Fall).
we'd play up the pixies and the fall
Nostalgia for specific musical experiences.
there's a treasure in your heart
Your heart holds something valuable, like a pirate's treasure.
just like a pirate's booty.
Comparing the heart's value to a pirate's booty.
but believe me, there's a better arnold palmer to play your course
Suggesting there are better matches and builders than the current choices.
and a better bob villa to build our windows and your doors
Highlighting the potential for improvement in partnerships and construction.
we can never decide what to call the cat, so we called her cat.
Humorous reflection on indecision, resorting to a simple name for the cat.
so it's time to go, it's time to go away.
Signaling that it's time to leave or move on.
time to go, it's time to go away.
Repeating the urgency of departure.
you keep the records in the pogos
Your memories are stored in the pogo dance records.
don't weep, you'll have your pick of bows
Encouraging not to be sad as better opportunities await.
will they write it in the papers
Wondering if your story will be written in the media.
so they're already outside
Implying public attention or scrutiny is already present.
and we'll be bruised up in the morning,
Expecting challenges in the future, possibly physical ones.
they'll tell us jokes that are real corny.
Anticipating cheesy jokes, typical of life's challenges.
but we'll bounce back,
Assuring resilience and the ability to bounce back.
just like the moon bounce in our backyard.
Comparing resilience to a moon bounce, a backyard trampoline.
and believe me, there's a better frankenstein for you to bride
Suggesting there's a better match or partner out there.
and a better president to look you in the eyes and lie.
Implies there's a more trustworthy leader than the current president.
we can never decide what to call the cat,
Reiterating the humorous indecision regarding the cat's name.
so we called her cat.
Repetition of the simple choice for the cat's name.
and it's time to go, it's time to go away.
Reemphasizing the need to move on or leave.
it's time to go, it's time to go away.
Final repetition of the urgency to depart.
