Finding Solace in Mary's Company: A Song's Tale
Lyrics
Mary is my best friend
Mary is the speaker's best friend.
She makes me my tea
Mary prepares tea for the speaker.
She let's me stay around her place
Mary allows the speaker to stay at her place when there's nowhere else to go.
When there's nowhere else to be
Highlighting the speaker's reliance on Mary for support.
There's nothing in her bedroom
Describing the simplicity of Mary's bedroom with only a bed and a TV.
Just a bed and a TV
Reiteration of the minimalistic setting in Mary's bedroom.
And it's okay for men aware
Suggesting that it's acceptable for the speaker to be in Mary's space, emphasizing comfort.
Just sit and drink my tea
Expressing a relaxed attitude, enjoying tea in Mary's company.
Im so lonely
The speaker admits to feeling lonely.
I ain't done much lately
The speaker hasn't been active or engaged recently.
When you come looking
Anticipating someone searching for the speaker.
You'll find me sleeping soundly
The speaker is often found sleeping peacefully.
Mary
Reiteration of Mary's name, possibly emphasizing her significance.
Mary keeps me smiling
Mary brings joy to the speaker, even in difficult times.
Even when I'm down
Highlighting Mary's positive impact on the speaker's mood.
She let's me stay around her place
Reiterating that the speaker can stay at Mary's place when needed.
When there's no-one else around
Emphasizing Mary's availability in the speaker's life.
There's nothing in her bedroom
Describing the simplicity of Mary's bedroom once again.
Just a bed and a TV
Reiteration of the minimalistic setting in Mary's bedroom.
And it's okay for men aware
Suggesting that it's acceptable for the speaker to be in Mary's space, emphasizing comfort.
Just sit and drink my tea
Expressing a relaxed attitude, enjoying tea in Mary's company.
I'm so lazy
The speaker acknowledges their laziness and lack of recent activity.
I ain't done much lately
Reiteration of the speaker's recent inactivity.
When you come looking
Anticipating someone searching for the speaker.
You'll find me sleeping soundly
The speaker is often found sleeping peacefully.
And when she comes around
When Mary visits, she notices the speaker's persistent sadness.
She says I always look so down
Highlighting Mary's ability to perceive the speaker's emotions.
And yeah, she's always right
Acknowledging Mary's insight, confirming her positive influence.
She makes me feel alright
Mary has a comforting effect on the speaker.
Im so lazy,
The speaker reiterates their laziness and lack of recent activity.
I ain't done much lately
Reiteration of the speaker's recent inactivity.
When you come looking
Anticipating someone searching for the speaker.
You'll find me sleeping soundly
The speaker is often found sleeping peacefully.
Mary
Reiteration of Mary's name, possibly emphasizing her significance.
