Cover art for Video Kid lyrics by Birthday Massacre, The

I believe that this song reffers to a woman who uses men as 'toys' and sees them as nothing more.

Next phase, next craze, next nothing new.

  • She is used to doing this often,using bous and men as her personal private 'toys', and just tosses them away when she's bored of them.

Got the pretty boy beat him up black and blue. Broke the sissy boy's teeny toy heart in two.

  • first line is metaphorical where as the second line she does say that she breaks the hearts of the men she 'plays' with.

Turned him into a video kid like you.

  • Those men turn to themselves after suffering from the emotional pain she caused, Turning themselves to behave like Video game - obsessed children.

I know you're just pretending.

  • Here she means that some of those men only pretend to love her, or thats what she thinks. ( Im guessing she acts like she does because someone 'broke' her like she breaks the hearts of men in revenge (?)

There's no window for escape. I know you see right through me. There's no promise left to break.

  • In the end the men can see whats coming for them, but they choose to stick around hoping they are mistaken.

Shot the pretty boy killed him on commodore. -She is done 'playing' around with this dude obviously (The shooting thing is clearly metaphorical)

Need a new game, need a new something more. Got a new face got a new way to score.

  • She is searching for a new 'victim' to pass her time with. play with, and break his heart too.

Got a voice like something I've heard before.

  • When she finds her new 'victim' what she says to him when breaking up with him, seems familliar to her, since she uses those words quite frequently

The message misleading.

  • The game she plays with her 'victims' We're lying, we're cheating. -She is reffering to all the ruthless women out there that act like she does, just for personal pleasure. We're only repeating.
  • They never stop doing it. The motions preceding.
  • They find themselves caught up in the routine of 'leading' on and using men at toys.
