Lyrics
I'm like Stevie Ray Vaughn on the stage
I feel like Stevie Ray Vaughn performing on stage.
High on music
I am intoxicated or euphoric from the music.
Teeth grinding
Experiencing stress or anxiety, causing teeth grinding.
Sweating under the lights
Sweating under the intense stage lights.
But then my boss calls and she's crushing me with a twenty-ton weight
The boss's call is overwhelming, akin to a heavy burden (Monty Python reference).
Just like in Monty Python
Reference to a comedic scene in Monty Python involving a crushing weight.
Somebody left on the sink, it's still running
Someone left the sink running, a minor issue amidst the stress.
My eyes are gonna overflow (happy hour)
Feeling overwhelmed, eyes welling up with emotion (happy hour as a release).
I need happy hour on sad days (on sad days)
Expressing the need for a happy hour during sad days.
I need happy hour I can't wait (can't wait)
Expressing impatience for the arrival of the much-needed happy hour.
I'm like Ponce de Leon Sailing on a ship for the new world
Comparing oneself to Ponce de Leon, seeking new experiences.
Checking out the birds and flowers
Enjoying nature on an island, using imagery of birds and flowers.
Let's chill out on this island, I've been sucking on a lime and coconut (coconut, coconut, coconut)
Relaxing with lime and coconut, expressing contentment.
I think I could stay here for the rest of my life
Expressing a desire to stay in the current state of contentment.
Please don't ever make me go home
Pleading not to be forced to return to a less enjoyable reality.
I need happy hour on sad days (on sad days)
Reiterating the need for happy hour on sad days.
It's my happy hour I can't wait (can't wait)
Impatient anticipation for the approaching happy hour.
Maybe I'll meet a scientist in sweatpants and a hair tie
Fantasizing about meeting an interesting person (scientist) during happy hour.
We'll conversate about ghetto birds and midi keyboards
Imagining a conversation about unconventional topics with the scientist.
Then we'll slow dance
Envisioning a romantic moment of slow dancing with the scientist.
Head on my shoulder
Describing the intimate moment with the scientist.
Swaying back and forth and
Portraying the gentle swaying during the dance.
My friends look on and smile
Friends observing the positive moment, smiling in approval.
Everything gonna be alright
Expressing confidence that everything will be alright.
It's my happy hour on sad days (on sad days)
Repeating the importance of happy hour on sad days.
I need happy hour, I can't wait (can't wait)
Reiterating impatience for the awaited happy hour.
I need happy hour to save me
Declaring a need for happy hour as a savior from challenges.
I need happy hour, I can't wait
Stressing the urgency of the need for happy hour.
