Quite Unusual Lyrics
Atomic bomb
Horrible things happen fast.
it's about a midget overlord who holds people captive with a toy helicopter bigger than himself.
What if they gave a catastrophe and nobody came?
yeah I thought it was aliens or some shit, and he was just saying the way the morning broke was unusual to convince himself it was just that, and not aliens.
What I feel and always thought was that this song is about dreaming in ways.
The way the morning broke was quite unusual
That weird, strange feeling you get when you wake up from a strange dream that you can't stop thinking about and doesn't make much sense but its stuck in your brain. Its with you for the better part of the day.
In less time than it takes to tell
You know there's a point or a conclusion but you just can't find it.
I should have wakened up at once, But this was no concern of mine, So I kept on dreaming
Might have been better if you did just wake and won't.
And I felt like And I felt like being numbed, I felt like mesmerized
Waking up and trying to hard to fool yourself that you can fall back asleep and continue the dream....to either figure it out or to enjoy it.
The rest I believe is part of the lyric writers personal dreams.
This is my interpretation of the song and I'm sticking with it. It's what it means to me. I could be wrong by the writer but its mine.
