Reveling in Fables: Supergrass's Sonic Journey of Self-Discovery
Lyrics
Well they meet us on the ruined a fables
Encountering challenges and difficulties in the aftermath of legendary stories.
As we drink ourselves right under the tables
Engaging in heavy drinking until being completely under the influence.
Well you need an end to yesterday's papers
Seeking closure for past events represented by yesterday's papers.
And tell us that they love us and hate us
Facing conflicting emotions from others, expressing both love and hate.
'Cause they're gonna kill us sooner or later
Conveying a sense of impending danger or harm from external forces.
Yeah we really ran and ruined the fables
Acknowledging responsibility for damaging or destroying legendary stories.
...Climbing up the tower of...
(Incomplete line, no interpretation provided.)
La-la, la-la, la-la, gotta get inside feeling
Expressing the need to experience a profound internal sensation.
La-la, la-la, la-la, gotta get inside feeling
Reiterating the desire for a deep internal experience through repetition.
Well they meet in the ruin of fables
Revisiting challenges within the remnants of legendary stories.
They see inside ourselves and what we are make of
Gaining insight into one's inner self and understanding its composition.
Come along and stick on a label
Applying labels to individuals, possibly addressing societal categorization.
We do the dance of the mashed potato
Engaging in a dance metaphorically represented as the "mashed potato."
'Cause they're superfragalistic'lly-inus
Playing with the word "superfragalistic," suggesting complexity or unpredictability.
La-la, la-la, la-la, gotta get inside feeling
Emphasizing the necessity of an internal sensation through repetition.
La-la, la-la, la-la, gotta get inside feeling
Reiterating the importance of experiencing a deep internal feeling.
La-la, la-la, la-la, gotta get inside feeling
Continuing the emphasis on the desire for a profound internal experience.
La-la, la-la, la-la, gotta get inside feeling
Reiterating the importance of seeking a deep internal feeling through repetition.
