Story Behind the Song
I guess this comes from the mindless conversations that take place backstage at one of those big rock shows. "Oh, your in a band too? How fabulous.." and sh*t like that... Complete with name dropping, high fashion, etc. The recording is pretty sparse and is almost entirely comprised of raw demo takes. The parts were all re-recorded and cleaned up, but they felt better dirty!
Lyrics
I didn't think I was whining loud enough for you to hear
Rambling over cigarettes in our clothes that lost their style last year
I was hanging out backstage just like I was someone
And watching the models, however strung out on heroin
So you think I'm a nouveau, or is it retro?
Well, you dig the groove
And as far as the clothes go, they are decidedly in with the move
When can I buy your album?
Have you made a movie?
Can I keep talking?
Are you seeing through me again?
Lightform flickers across the stage
At the new world idol trapped in a cage
You could be the next Cobain, cuz you are high and your eyes shine
Or maybe Joe Jackson, if you are gay and got the time
You remind me of Dylan, or is it Bowie?
You know that they know me
Yes, and at one time they would have called me a friend
Lightform flickers across the stage
At the new world idol trapped in a cage
Lightform, flicker on.
