Zoom In Lyrics

Stood on the line
you understand
I've been waiting forever
come rain, come shine
In the wind and the snow
In the filthy weather

you got it all worked out
Yeah, but it knocks you out
I'm zoomin' in

Now she arrives
in a flaming crash
like a falling star
heading straight for the dive
gonna make some cash with that avatar

You got it all worked out
I know you know I don't want you to go
yeah but it knocks you out
I'm zoomin' in on you on you

Don't look back we're an art attack
Don't look back we're an art attack
Don't look back we're an art attack
Dont' look back we're an art attack

You got it all worked out
yeah but it knocks you out

we're not alone in this Second Life
there are millions like us
right here in the stones
in the air too bright
all the new insiders

You got it all worked out
I know you know I don't want you to go
yeah but it knocks you out
I'm zoomin' in on you on you

Na na na na na na na
I know you know I don't want you to go
Na na na na na na na
I'm zoomin' in and out on you
I'm zoomin' in and out on you
zoomin' in and out on you

Na na na na na na na
I know you know I don't want you to go
Na na na na na na na
I'm zoomin' in and out on you

Cover art for Zoom In lyrics by Duran Duran

This is a good song, but the subject matter is a little...unusual, in my opinion - it's about the online game Second Life. As someone who plays the odd bit of SL, I'm hoping that Duran eventually finish creating the virtual world they've got in the works for the game, so I can play around in it!

I have to completely disagree with you bubbletea. I don't think it means "Second Life" as in the virtual game. I believe its referring to a "second life"-- celebrity and the one you really live. Maybe not even that, but most definitely with a lower case not the game. Sorry to burst your bubble -- no pun intended I swear.

Going along with the life of celebrity, avatar is referring to an image one portrays, not necessarily one created on computers, etc. But a false persona put on, kind of like the whole "hiding behind the mask" cliche.
