In What World
Dreams and Reality: Aspirations in 'In What World' by The Illicits
Lyrics
One day I might be a star
Expressing a desire to become a celebrity or achieve success.
I need a day is that a lot
Yearning for a break or free time, questioning if that's too much to ask.
In what world
Raising a question about the reality or context of a situation.
In what world
Repeating the inquiry about the nature of the world or circumstances.
Penny's for a thousand thoughts
Suggesting that deep thoughts come at a low cost, possibly hinting at the value of contemplation.
Need a pound cos money talks
Desiring financial stability because money has influence.
To some girls
Referring to a specific group of individuals (girls) influenced by financial considerations.
In what world
Reiterating the question about the world in the context of relationships influenced by money.
I can see your spirit now
Claiming an ability to perceive someone's essence or character.
The reason is I don't know how
Expressing uncertainty about the cause or rationale behind this perception.
I want you to stay around, around
Expressing a desire for someone's continued presence or companionship.
And the days never end
Highlighting a sense of timelessness or monotony in life.
The days never end
Repeating the idea that days seem endless or repetitive.
One day I might be a star
Repeating the aspiration to achieve stardom or success.
I need a day is that a lot
Reiterating the need for a break or leisure time.
In what world
Persisting in questioning the nature of the world or reality.
In what world
Repeating the inquiry about the world and its characteristics.
Penny's for a thousand thoughts
Continuing the idea that deep thoughts come at a low cost.
Need a pound cos money talks
Reiterating the desire for financial stability due to the influence of money.
To some girls
Referring again to a specific group (girls) influenced by financial factors.
In what world
Repeating the question about the nature of the world in the context of relationships and money.
I can see your spirit now
Claiming an ability to perceive someone's spirit or essence.
The reason is I don't know how
Expressing uncertainty about the cause or mechanism behind this spiritual perception.
I want you to stay around, around
Reiterating the desire for someone's continued presence or companionship.
And the days never end
Repeating the idea that days seem endless or repetitive.
The days never end
Emphasizing the perceived endlessness or monotony of days.
