Unraveling the tapestry of this lyrical narrative, we find ourselves immersed in an exploration of vulnerability and longing. The protagonist appears to be wrestling with feelings of anxiety and self-doubt, symbolized by the cutting off of his head and numbness of his mouth. This could suggest a struggle to communicate or express emotions. The recurring plea not to 'shut your eyes until we fade to black' hints at a desperate need for connection and fear of loneliness. Meanwhile, the references to 'orange cola', 'black flamingos', and 'jellyfish' create vivid, surreal imagery that mirrors the disorientation often associated with intense emotions. Ultimately, it's a poignant portrayal of human fragility and the universal yearning for lasting love and companionship.
Cheetah Tongue
Lyrics
I cut off my head and my cheetah tongue
I can't think straight and my mouth is numb
Don't shut your eyes 'til we fade to black
'Cause maybe this time the good stuff could last
You won me over
My orange cola got black flamingoes crying for ya
Well I'll see you later
I could be your faker
My hands shake like jellyfish when you're near
I cut off my head and my cheetah tongue
I can't think straight and my mouth is numb
Don't shut your eyes 'til we fade to black
'Cause maybe this time the good stuff could last
You're a hammer, sweet firecracker
Stumbling through Chinatown
Liar, liar, my house is on fire
Somewhere between Chinatown and here
I cut off my head and my cheetah tongue
I can't think straight and my mouth is numb
Don't shut your eyes 'til we fade to black
'Cause maybe this time the good stuff could last
Come a little closer, it's alright
I'll be your character with flaws tonight
Come a little closer, my firefly
You're not the only one who doesn't want to be alone tonight
I cut off my head and my cheetah tongue
I can't think straight and my mouth is numb
Don't shut your eyes 'til we fade to black
'Cause maybe this time the good stuff could last
