If Humans Had Scorpion Tails
Unveiling the Celebrity Paradox: Giants, Wolves, and Broken Records
Lyrics
Another night of reckless thinking leads to headaches.
Reckless thoughts have led to headaches once again.
Sleeping with the paparazzi through another earthquake.
Metaphorically, experiencing chaotic situations akin to being in the spotlight during an earthquake.
We cut the velvet rope but couldn't cut the tension
They were able to gain entry but failed to relieve the underlying stress or discomfort.
"Yea, that's my friend"
Asserting familiarity with someone.
The name was dropped in all directions
The person's name was mentioned frequently and in various contexts.
These are my friends
Stating a group as friends despite having recently met them.
I just met them
Implying the fleeting nature of relationships in a fast-paced environment.
As fleeting as flashbulbs
Comparing the brevity of these relationships to the quick flashes of a camera.
As fast as past tense
As quick as how past events become distant.
You can check your list
Confidently stating being on a certain list (possibly referring to a guest list).
I guarantee my name is on it
Asserting the association with the group mentioned earlier.
Yea, they're with me
Describing a group of people as a pack of wolves drinking gin and tonics, potentially symbolizing a predatory nature or wild behavior.
The pack of wolves with gin and tonics
Causing emotional pain or attracting attention aggressively.
We're breaking hearts, we're breaking necks
Repeating behaviors or patterns continuously.
We're broken records
Adage stating that those in dire situations shouldn't be picky about options, addressing individuals who have lost.
Beggars can't be choosers said the legend to the losers
Expressing frustration or agitation, potentially due to a lack of tolerance or patience.
Color me the loss of patience,
Describing a state of frustration or irritation.
I'll color you the withered acquantiance
Depicting someone as a faded or deteriorated connection.
Celebrities who strive to matter
Noting celebrities' attempts to be significant or meaningful.
Respect is killed by muffled chatter
Showing how respect is diminished by insignificant or unimportant conversations.
And so it goes the tale of giants
Portraying a story of powerful figures encountering downfall or betrayal caused by false leaders.
Pierced through the back by psuedo tyrants
Being betrayed or attacked by false or insincere authorities.
