GOSSIP Lyrics
- Lyrics
- Meaning
[Verse 1]
Welcome to the city of lies where everything's got a price
Gonna be in your new favorite place
You can be a movie star and get everything you want
Just put some plastic on your face
[Pre-Chorus]
This place is a circus, you just see the surface
They cover shit under the rug
You can't see they're fakin', they'll never be naked
Just fill your drink with tonic gin, this is the American dream, so
[Chorus]
Sip the gossip, drink 'til you choke
Sip the gossip, burn down your throat
You're not iconic, you are just like them all
Don't act like you don't know, so
Sip the gossip, drink 'til you choke
Sip the gossip, burn down your throat
You're not iconic, you are just like them all
Don't act like you don't know, oh
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Keep drinkin' and acting cool, don't care if your day is blue
Nobody loves a gloomy face, just
Take your pills and dance all night, don't think at all, that's the advice
So c'mon, let's try, it's just a taste
[Pre-Chorus]
This place is a circus, you just see the surface
They cover shit under the rug
You can't see they're fakin', they'll never be naked
Just fill your drink with tonic gin, this is the American dream, so
[Chorus]
Sip the gossip, drink 'til you choke
Sip the gossip, burn down your throat
You're not iconic, you are just like them all
Don't act like you don't know, so
Sip the gossip, drink 'til you choke
Sip the gossip, burn down your throat
You're not iconic, you are just like them all
Don't act like you don't know, oh
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
So sip the gossip, drink 'til you choke
Sip the gossip, burn down your throat
You're not iconic, you are just like them all
Don't act like you don't know, oh
[Verse 1]
In the first verse, Damiano welcomes the listener to a "city of lies" where everything has a price. The lyrics suggest that achieving fame and fortune requires sacrificing authenticity and conforming to superficial standards. The mention of putting plastic on one's face symbolizes the extreme measures people take to fit in and succeed in this environment.
[Pre-Chorus]
The pre-chorus describes the deceptive nature of this place, likening it to a circus where only the surface is visible, and the truth is hidden. Damiano points out that people are fake and never show their true selves, instead opting to numb their realities with superficial pleasures like tonic gin, representing the hollow pursuit of the American dream.
[Chorus]
The chorus repeatedly urges the listener to "sip the gossip" and "burn down your throat," emphasizing the destructive nature of indulging in and spreading rumors. Damiano asserts that no one is truly iconic; everyone is conforming to the same superficial standards. The repetition underscores the pervasive and damaging impact of this behavior.
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
In the second verse, Damiano encourages people to keep drinking and pretending to be cool, even if they feel miserable. He advises taking pills and dancing all night to escape reality, highlighting the pressure to always appear happy and carefree. This verse continues to criticize the shallow and damaging lifestyle promoted by society.
[Pre-Chorus]
The pre-chorus is repeated, reinforcing the idea of a deceptive, circus-like environment where reality is hidden, and people fake their way through life. The mention of tonic gin symbolizes the superficial means people use to cope with this false reality.
[Chorus]
The chorus is repeated, driving home the central theme of indulging in gossip and the resulting destruction. Damiano continues to assert that everyone is the same, no one is truly unique, and this behavior is widespread and harmful.
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
The chorus is repeated one final time, emphasizing the message that indulging in gossip and superficial behavior leads to self-destruction. Damiano's assertion that no one is iconic and everyone conforms to the same standards highlights the emptiness of this pursuit.
