"I'm speed racer and I drive real fast
He's speed racer and he drives real fast
I drive real fast, I'm gonna last"
On the surface it may seem like just someone bragging about the fact that they are a speed racer and they drive real fast but underneath there is an element of arrogance in Speed Racer thinking that he is going to last, as in survive the race of life because he's fast.
"I'm a big pirate and I like to steal
He's a big pirate and he likes to steal
I like to steal and I like to kill"
A pirate is known as someone who is willing to steal and kill to get what they want, which is obviously a negative intent but because it is sung in a childlike way, it is almost representing a pirate in a positive light as someone for children to embrace.
"Go, go, go speed racer
I'm a barbie doll, but I got brains
She's a barbie doll, but she's got brains
I've got brains and I like sex
Lots of brains and she likes sex"
Speed Racer is being supported in his belief that he's going to last because he's fast because he is being urged to go go go. Barbie is considered by some to be a role model for girls but at the same time can be seen to represent a false image of what a woman is supposed to be - provocative and promiscous and without intelligent thoughts.
Barbie in this context is saying that she has brains (intelligence) even though on a surface level that impression is betrayed - but whether you believe she has brains or thinks she does will alter how you interpret these lyrics.
"I'm your doctor and here's the bill
He's your doctor and here's the bill
Doctor steel and here's the bill
He likes to steal, so here's your bill"
A doctor is considered by many to be someone who wants to help you and we are reassured as children of this. However to an adult who faces problems of finance and other concepts we don't comprehend as children, a doctor can be necessary but expensive at the same time - the doctor in these lyrics seems to like the fact that he steals but he's giving a service that satisfies a need.
"I'm speed racer and I drive real fast
I'm a big pirate and I like to steal
I'm a barbie doll, but I got brains
I'm your doctor and here's the bill
I drive real fast, I'm gonna last
I like to drink and I like to kill
Lots of brains and I like sex
Like to steal, here's your bill"
All are re-affirming that what is being sung in these lyrics are true.
Overall I think the theme of this song is that - things that are considered childlike have their adult counterpart and these are truths hidden in lies by adults from children to shield them from the dangers of the world but showing it in a way that they can understand and accept at their young age.
Here is my interpretation:
