General Electric
Selfish Desires and Surrender: General Electric's Enigmatic Melody
Lyrics
Fun always comes at a cost
Fun is not without consequences or sacrifices.
You're down on your luck
The person is experiencing a streak of bad luck.
I'm taking the blame as always
Assuming responsibility or blame is a habitual behavior.
When your cannons misfire
Dealing with the aftermath of failed attempts or actions.
I wanna be just like
Expressing a desire to emulate qualities of others.
The girls you like
Aspiring to be similar to the individuals the person is attracted to.
I wanna be what you fantasize
Wishing to embody the fantasies of someone else.
EMT who needs the
A reference to an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT).
Class of 2015 calling
Mention of a specific graduation year (2015).
Dark circles under my eyes
Physical signs of stress or fatigue.
I control nothing
Acknowledging a lack of control over one's life.
You are a ready fire to burn
Describing someone as a potential source of intense passion or danger.
Plastic bags in a life urn
Symbolic imagery of containment or restriction.
I wanna be just like
Reiteration of the desire to emulate others.
The girls you like
Expressing a wish to fulfill the desires of someone else.
I wanna be what you fantasize
Desiring to be a source of fantasy for another person.
EMT who needs the
Repetition of the reference to an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT).
Class of 2015 calling
Reiteration of a specific graduation year (2015).
Control me like a puppet
Expressing a willingness to be controlled or influenced.
Call me on my cell phone
A reference to modern communication and accessibility.
I'm General Electric
Identifying oneself metaphorically as "General Electric."
You're a Casanova
Comparing the other person to a charming and seductive individual.
I know what I'm doing
Asserting confidence and self-awareness in one's actions.
You can just come over
Inviting someone to come over, suggesting a desire for companionship.
Be the one I'm calling
Expressing a desire for a specific person to be the one contacted.
Get me down on all fours
Suggesting a willingness to be submissive or vulnerable.
Cut to my expression
Referring to a shift in emotional expression or communication.
Hold me in the sunlight
Describing a desire for intimacy or exposure to light.
I am being thorough
Expressing thoroughness or completeness in actions or feelings.
Oh, you know that I try
Acknowledging effort despite potential difficulties.
Maybe I'm just selfish, maybe I can fight it
Considering the possibility of being selfish and acknowledging a struggle against it.
Maybe I'm just selfish, maybe I can be right
Repetition of the internal struggle with selfish tendencies.
Maybe I'm just selfish, maybe I can fight it
Continued contemplation of selfishness and the potential to overcome it.
Maybe I'm just selfish, maybe I can be right
Reiteration of the internal conflict regarding selfishness.
EMT who needs the
