lirik lagu flight of the conchords - seagull (live in london)
tired of this place
i need to get away
it’s time for me to go now
i can’t stay, no, no, no, no
just like any bird
i need to spread my wings
and fly across the ocean
see what the new day brings
’cause i’m a seagull, yeah
in the first verse of this song
the singer, um, portrays
himself as a free spirit
he does this by using the metaphor
of a seagull
a creature untethered…
to gravity
no, i can’t stay on
this cold, little rock
no, it’s time for me to go
my mind’s made up
it’s the mind of a seagull
yeah, yeah
’cause i’m a seagull
i got the mind of a seagull
yeah
in this fascinating second verse
he talks about leaving a rock
the rock, obviously
represents a relationship
which has grown cold
and uninhabitable
wanna fly up in the sky
there’s something more i seek
i wanna feel the warmth of the
morning sun across my beak
’cause i’m a seagull, yeah, yeah
i got a beak, yeah, yeah
this verse, he talks about
leaving the rock again
well, the relationship, obviously
feeling the sun on his beak
the beak is, obviously, a
phallic symbol. it’s his p-n-s
i’m a seagull
a seagull i will always be
dive into the ocean
dip my beak into the sea
oh, here we go now
i’m a seagull, yeah, yeah
i’m trying to lift this piano
i’m trying to lift it
with my hopeless wings
d-mn these feathered things
ah, no, no, no
feathered curse of being
a seagull, yeah, yeah
i have absolutely no idea
what he’s talking about now
one day i found this piano
it washed up on this
cold, little rock
since that day, i’ve been
playing my piano nonstop
’cause i’m a piano playing seagull
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
i’m totally confused
uh, he seems to be mixing
metaphors here with the piano
what’s–what’s the piano
a metaphor for?
is that–is that a lost dream?
or what’s the–?
sorry, what’s the– excuse me
we’re just doing an
-n-lysis of the song
-what’s the piano a metaphor for?
-no, the piano is a piano
yeah, it’s literally a piano
yeah, yeah, yeah
it’s just a piano?
yeah, that’s right, it’s a piano
-yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
i-s the rock a relationship
that has grown cold over time?
the rock is just a rock
so, the beak isn’t
phallic symbolism?
no, no
the beak is not my c-ck, no, no
so this is just a song about
a very musical seagull?
i’m literally a keyboard
playin’ seabird
that sings
i keep on playin’
seabird playin’ my piano
with my wings, oh
literally, a seagull, yeah
who sometimes sh-ts on people, yeah
literally a seagull, yeah
piano solo! yeah!
oh, i wish i had some fingers
oh, d-mn these feathered things
literally, a seagull, yeah, yeah
everybody!
literally, a seagull, yeah, yeah
literally, a keyboard
playin’ seabird
that sings
