Lyrics
Do shots first, ask questions later on
Indulging in impulsive actions without considering consequences.
And tomorrow morning figure out where it all went wrong
Reflecting on the aftermath of the impulsive actions the next morning.
See if we can try to stay the hell out of our own way
Expressing a desire to avoid self-sabotage and complications.
I feel like I've known you my whole life
Feeling a deep connection with the person addressed in the lyrics.
My life didn't start until tonight
Suggesting that the speaker's life has gained meaning in the present moment.
Now we're feeling so good
Expressing a positive emotional state.
We're feeling so fine
Continuing to feel good and fine.
Until tomorrow, but that's just some other time
Acknowledging the temporary nature of the positive feelings.
And this is totally obvious
Stating that the situation is clearly evident.
Obviously wrong
Acknowledging that the evident situation is wrong.
I gotta know how this ends, so go on
Expressing a curiosity about the outcome despite knowing it's not ideal.
Back to your place after the bars close
Heading back to a private space after the closing of bars.
And I'm feeling strangely turned on at the sight of your dirty clothes
Feeling a peculiar attraction to the disheveled appearance of the person.
Critiquing your refrigerator magnet poetry
Engaging in playful criticism of creative expressions like refrigerator magnet poetry.
Smelling the latest issue of Seventeen
Noticing and experiencing the scent of a popular teenage magazine.
Wondering how all this will read in your diary
Contemplating how the current situation will be remembered in the person's diary.
I ask your Magic 8 Ball
Seeking guidance from a Magic 8 Ball.
But I know what I'll get
Anticipating a pessimistic response from the Magic 8 Ball.
Could this be the real thing?
Pondering if the current experience is genuine.
It says, Don't Count on It.
Receiving a negative response from the Magic 8 Ball, suggesting skepticism.
Together but somehow alone
Being physically together but emotionally feeling isolated.
We go on
Moving forward despite the emotional distance.
This is totally obvious
Reiterating the evident nature of the situation.
Obviously wrong
Acknowledging the wrongness of the situation but finding it arousing.
But this is turning me on
Expressing a continued curiosity about the outcome despite its inappropriate nature.
I gotta know how this ends, so go on
(Blank line)
