Taunt Lyrics

She's always asking, "Am I alright?"
As if auspicious or in my pint
I'll find the answer or a good night
Thank God the time is short
And, yes, you always do that one thing
When you wrinkle up the nose bridge
I'm tryna figure out what that meant
I took it as a taunt

Remember way back then in school?
Oh, did anybody ever say no to you? Whoa
Did anybody ever say no to you? Whoa
And I don't think I have a clue
'Cause, well, did anybody ever say no to you? Whoa
Did anybody ever say no to you? Whoa

You're always tryna leave the table
Phone calls, toilet breaks, unstable
And don't you think that we can all tell?
You're insecure, you're insecure
I guess I always do that one thing
When I get too drunk and jump in
To figure out what makes your brain tick
I'm a listener, I'm a listener

Remember way back then in school?
'Cause well, did anybody ever say no to you? Whoa
Did anybody ever say no to you? Whoa
But I don't think I have a clue
'Cause, well, does anybody ever say no to you? Whoa
Does anybody ever say no to you? Whoa

Woo
And I don't think so
'Cause I don't think so

Forget the number for the cab call
As you're dashing out the front door
You claim to try to dodge the catcalls
Thank God the time is short
And, yes, you always do that one thing
'Cause when you throw and drench me under your drink
I'm tryna figure out what that means
I took it as a taunt

What is the Meaning of Taunt?

In a captivating exploration of interpersonal dynamics, this composition delves into the nuances of a complex relationship. The protagonist grapples with the other person's insecurities and their inability to accept rejection or criticism, as suggested by the recurring question: "Did anybody ever say no to you?" This rhetorical query implies an element of spoilt behaviour and lack of self-awareness in the other individual. The protagonist also highlights his own efforts to understand and empathize with the other person, despite their challenging behaviour. However, these attempts often result in confusion or misinterpretation, represented by phrases like "I'm tryna figure out what that meant" and "I took it as a taunt." 🎭 The song ultimately portrays an intricate dance between two individuals trying to navigate their relationship amidst misunderstandings and emotional insecurities.
