High Life Scenery Lyrics
You got everybody talking
You got everybody going
You got everybody acting crazy
I'm not gonna say you don't
You got everybody listening
You got everybody putting on a show
You got everybody acting crazy
I'm not gonna say you don't
You got it all wrong
You're so scene
Listening
You can feel
But you won't sing
Anything
You know you mean
To take it
Do you take it seriously
Cause seriously
This high life scenery
It makes me crazy
Hey (hey!)
What do you say?
I need some help
Help me out boys (boys!)
I'm not feeling so good
Girl (girl!)
I got the feeling you're feeling something
What you say is moving you
Everybody in here's got it going on
I can't compete with that
I'll take off all my clothes to the thrift store
And take it all, take it all back
Hey!
You're so scene
Listening
You can feel
But you won't sing
Anything
You know you mean
To take it
Do you take it seriously
Cause seriously
This high life scenery
It's making me
Hey (hey!)
Look
What do you say?
Take a look
Take a look, you're looking at me
Singing, thinking
I'm about to scream, scream, scream
Hey!
You're so scene
Listening
You can feel
But you won't sing
Anything
You know you mean
To take it
Do you take it seriously
Cause seriously
This high life scenery
It makes me crazy
You're so scene
Listening
You can feel
But you won't sing
Anything
You know you mean
To take it
Do you take it seriously
Cause seriously
This high life scenery
It makes me crazy
You got everybody going
You got everybody acting crazy
I'm not gonna say you don't
You got everybody putting on a show
You got everybody acting crazy
I'm not gonna say you don't
You're so scene
Listening
You can feel
But you won't sing
Anything
You know you mean
To take it
Do you take it seriously

HOLYCRAPAMAZING. all i can say
yeah, this song's amazing.
LOOOOOOOVVVVVVEEE ITTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
haha great song one of my favies, but he sounds like he's talking about all the fame that overwhelm himself?.! or is he talking about someone who it's like this?! i love all the energy in this song anywayz :D
He's talking about "scene" kids and how it drives him crazy cause it's absolutely ridiculous. He creates a character, a specific girl, who he targets throughout the verses. He's saying how it drives him crazy how she has to put on this show when really, she should just go fucking crazy and sing and dance along (instead of just standing and being "serious" as some kids do), because she obviously feels something.
Fame is not involved, unless the opening verses are meant to call out certain bands, but that wouldn't correlate as well with the rest of the song. I think it's more or less talking about the so-called "scene."
And saying that, I think the term "scenery" is fucking hilarious. He clearly means it in a very tongue-in-cheek kind of way and I want to use it.
i agree with smileforthecamera. i'm in love with beat at the beginning, it drives me nuts. hah.
yeah, i'm gonna have to go with smile too. he's definitely calling out the "scene". It's obvious, because they all try to act like they're too composed to let loose and go crazy. I love this whole album =]
I'm pretty sure it says, "Do you take it; Do you take it" not "To take it; to take it"
C'mon, he's bashing all the commercial bands out there that don't sing like they really want it.
"You can feel But you won't sing Anything You know you mean "
This ong is so great to just sing along with. Amazing. =]
