Guys, I think I've got this figured out perfectly. It came to me because I randomly thought of the line "shut me up with your long tube-socks, they don't scream 'hey, let's just be friends." This is how I interpret it because it's what I'm going through with a girl right now. She has a boyfriend... but really wants me... and yeah, that's a mess lol. I think it's about a girl who has a boyfriend, but she's trying to hook up with the character of the lyrics. Lines that make me believe this: 1)"Shut me up with your long tube-socks, they don't scream 'hey let's just be friends." They're hanging out, and she's trying to seduce him and look sexy. 2) "How many stars do you think you possess? How many in your butterfly net?" This is another way of saying "how many guys do you think you can get? How many different guys are you messing around with right now?" 3) "This is me starring in a stranger's nightmare." Well, if I had a girlfriend that were hooking up with some dude, that'd be an absolute nightmare. She's hooking up with him and making that nightmare a reality for her boyfriend, a guy that the singer hasn't met, hence the use of the word stranger. Is it a coincidence that the lines "how many ***STARS*** do you think you possess" works in that context me "this is me ***STARRING*** in a stranger's nightmare?" I think not!!! |
