Ready To Go

Republica

Ready to go
Ready to go

You're weird, in tears, too near and too far away
He said, saw red, went home, stayed in bed all day
Your t-shirt, dish dirt
Always love the one you hurt

It's a crack, I'm back, yeah, I'm standing
On the rooftop shouting out
Baby, I'm ready to go
I'm back and ready to go
From the rooftops shout it out
It's a crack, I'm back, yeah, I'm standing
On the rooftops having it
Baby, I'm ready to go
I'm back and ready to go
From the rooftops shout it out, shout it out

You sleep, too deep, one week is another world
(Big mouth), big mouth, (drop out), drop out
You get what you deserve
You're strange, insane, one thing you can never change

It's a crack, I'm back, yeah, I'm standing
On the rooftops shouting out
Baby, I'm ready to go
I'm back and ready to go
From the rooftops shout it out
It's a crack, I'm back, yeah, I'm standing
On the rooftops having it
Baby, I'm ready to go
I'm back and ready to go
From the rooftops shout it out, shout it out

Ready to go

Abused, confused, always love the one that
Hurt ya, hurt ya, hurt ya, hurt ya

It's a crack, I'm back, yeah, I'm standing
On the rooftops shouting out
Baby, I'm ready to go
I'm back and ready to go
From the rooftops shout it out
It's a crack, I'm back, yeah, I'm standing
On the rooftops having it
Baby, I'm ready to go
I'm back and ready to go
From the rooftops shout it out

It's a crack, baby, I'm ready to go
Baby I'm ready to go
Baby I'm ready to go
Baby I'm ready to go
Baby I'm ready to go
Baby I'm ready to go
Baby I'm ready to go
Baby I'm ready to go
Baby I'm ready to go

    I think this song is, first of all, a song with a focus on MUSIC and a bright inspiring atmosphere, not on lyrics (which is GOOD IMO, music's primary element have to be MUSIC ITSELF! lyrics are secondary, they don't even have to exist. Does anybody agree with me on this?) At least it used to be like that back then when people made music out of inspiration and love for music, not out of the desire to get famous, get loads of money, have 15 same cars just for the darn of it(while people around them are starving to death), whores around those cars, drugs and overall disgusting, snobbish, debaucherous life... Hence I don't think there is any SPECIFIC meaning to this song, I think its simply made to be inspiring and inspire people whenever they are READY TO GO anywhere, or ready to do anything, like preparing for a trip, some sports activity, contest, whatever. And at the end of the day I really think that music is all about that. Happy and energetic songs should simply awake something in you, inspire and motivate you...making you simply happy and READY TO GO! :)

    Love this song. Very Garbage. Very simplistic, (some would say repetitive...who are we kidding, it is, but what it's repeating is so damn good lol) and just plain kicks ass. Tends to pop up occasionally, think I saw it in a few commercials and trailers for movies, but never got much recognition. All-around great song.

    This is about the push and pull of a bad relationship. A manic depressive or bi-polar: emotional and drained of energy, (staying in bed and sleeping when depressed) then back and "ready to go" versus an unapologetic narcissist who constantly gaslights the other as abuse: "you're weird" "you're strange, insane" It's a rollercoaster ride from hell.

    This song completly reminds me of my childhood years and I'm not sure why. I guess its sort of a good song for when your about to end something and start something new which is why I kind of associate it both with my primary school finish as it was out around then and also for my high school finish because.

    I think Republica and Elastica are like the same thing.. hmm. But obviously Elastica are better.. and made loads more songs.. like 3 times as many.. and both Republica and Elastica sing this song. And this song is incredibly catchyyyy! It has such a strong rhythm!!.. Or am i the only one that feels the beat in this song..? Well anyhoo, GREAT song!

This track is about is about questioning why the sky would choose to be blue if it had the choice to be anything else, “blue also meaning sad,” states frontman Aaron Pauley. “It's about comforting a loved one in a time of loss by telling them you feel blue, too.”

I believe this is another amazingly on point and nuanced commentary on the insanity that follows emotionally abusive relationships. The abuser has no anxieties, no emotional pain, or salience/memory for that matter, so the survivor appears to be the crazy one, obsessed with the abuse and that buzzword that seems to ignite arguments about diagnosing people without a degree, etc. funny how you say the words domestic violence, abuse, abuse survivor and boom the subject changes. Anyways, I especially relate to her midnights becoming afternoons, complex PTSD often leads to this phenomenon, whether due to purposeful sleep deprivation by the abuser, or just hyper vigilance associated with the PTSD, along with the fear of facing people, especially your loved ones, who Never actually understand, even if they try, because all they see is you, on fire, screaming about the arsonist that no one ever sees, and who has been spreading lies about your alleged mental instability, deceptive personality, etc. the whole time. While the last thing survivors need is more blame, our society supports a narrative that blames the objectively innocent party because the blatantly guilty party has spent their entire lives fabricating a persona and we’re just being human, and human psychology is quite counterintuitive especially in the context of trauma. Look at Amber Heard. Vilified and not believed, regardless of what any abuse survivor could recognize as a fellow survivor instantly. But Johnny depp is a malignant narcissist, a man, and wealthy as all get out. It’s sick.

Moyet later described how her song "Goodbye 70's" had been inspired by her disillusionment with how the late-1970s punk scene had turned out, saying, "'Goodbye 70's' is about punk and not caring how you were dressed, and then I discovered that so many of my friends that I'd thought it all really meant something to just saw it as another trend... That's what 'Goodbye 70's' was all about, about how sour the whole thing became."
