This Is Our Lot
Dancing Late and Heavy with Hops: Unraveling Wild Beasts' Quirky Tale
Lyrics
By smirking prank of fate,
Referring to life's ironic twists and turns, unexpected events.
We find ourselves dancing late,
Describing the act of dancing late as a consequence of fate's playfulness.
Like young reprobates.
Comparing themselves to young rebels or troublemakers.
By the milky light of the mighty moon,
Under the moonlight, seeking companionship and intimacy.
Find someone to nuzzle to,
Looking for someone to cuddle or snuggle with.
And waltz from the room.
Leaving the room while engaged in a waltz.
We're all quiffed and cropped,
Describing a well-groomed appearance, possibly reflecting societal expectations.
This is our lot,
Acknowledging their current situation or circumstances.
We hold each other up heavy with hops.
Supporting each other in a state of intoxication or merriment.
By smirking prank of fate we wiggle and kick like bobbing bate,
Reiterating the theme of fate's humor, expressing movement and anticipation.
And wait for a bite.
Waiting for an opportunity or response, likened to fishing with bait.
By the milky light of the mighty moon,
Repetition of the moonlight setting, emphasizing the search for connection.
Find someone to nuzzle to,
Seeking closeness and affectionate gestures.
And waltz from the room.
Continuing the dance and leaving the room, reinforcing the theme of movement.
We're all quiffed and cropped,
Reiterating a well-groomed appearance, possibly reflecting conformity.
This is our lot,
Reaffirming the acceptance of their current situation or fate.
We hold each other up heavy with hops.
Supporting each other while under the influence of hops, likely alcohol.
My darling,
Expressing endearment or affection to a loved one.
My dumpling,
Using playful terms of affection for a loved one.
My plump hearts a' thumping- begging you to come to me.
Describing intense emotions, urging the loved one to come closer.
I couldn't be more ready,
Expressing readiness for a significant event or moment.
I couldn't be more ready.
Reiterating preparedness for what comes next.
A glottal stop.
Referring to a glottal stop, a linguistic term, possibly suggesting a pause or hesitation.
Bottled up.
Describing emotions being contained or restrained, awaiting release.
Waiting for the penny drop.
Anticipating a significant moment or realization.
