Nobody's Off the Hook Lyrics

Cover art for Nobody's Off the Hook lyrics by Rufus Wainwright

This may seem like a far stretch, but it's almost like Rufus is singing to himself, example...

"See you looking so sad/ trying to live your life in style" Rufus actually sings about conforming to the "stylish" lifestyle in his song Poses

"I remember you when/ Looking like a teenager how you have become a man with all the power/ Running the moon aground/ ... You would become the one desired/ In every woman's heart" This could be how he has rose to fame, and how he started out as nothing and now he's on top of the world and loads of people love him

"'Cause life/ Will take that little heart/ And bring you to your knees/ Threatening to break it/ For the final time and you'll believe it..." He's almost giving himself advice with this one, saying that yeah, he's going to face challenges but he's got to overcome them and keep going on

So again, it may seem like a stretch, but in a way it does make sense...
