This entire song is a really artsy take on pop culture right now, with not a breath wasted.
The "Do do do, do do do" tones in the beginning are simple and catchy, without any real substance. Completely repetitive. Just like popular music right about now.
The first verse is about the party life and how everyone sort of just gets sucked into it now because it's the "cool" thing to do.
The lead into the chorus details how when you watch enough MTV (or similar channels) for long enough, you begin to believe in what they are and what they represent, until you'll give them the whole of your being essentially, doing whatever they want and playing right into their hands.
"You're not my girl, you're just tired" follows the party atmosphere idea, with a random girl trying to get in some guy's pants and pretending it means something. Ultimately though, in the morning it's going to be forgotten either way and none of it will matter. This ties the whole song together, because no matter what an artist does in this day and age, their popularity is just a passing thing which will soon be forgotten shortly after.
Given that I can't recall the last time I've heard anything about Matt Good on the mainstream levels, I suppose this was strangely prophetic, huh?
Think Anti-Pop for this one. Right from the name.
