“oh man, you cut me to size, ow that hurt” then there is the existential pain. Verse 2 also introduces a third voice, a man by the buttercups field. Verse 2 is the relief, surprise! because he realizes his time is his own, he was “beneath the same sun” as others… no need to rush out the button. First voice is a button responding to another peer pressure “Cant you do it sometime?” he goes “wont you come out of my head? forget it ill do it sometime”. In Verse 1 there is 2 voices of different flowers. In short the story goes about the struggle the buttercups in the seek of self realization, quite literally to bloom out of the button, the peer pressure of the process as others bloom and the purpose of their very existence. I love this song and the multiple of voices that tell a story thats only painted partially, but with beautiful clarity and colors, kinda like a Bob Dylan song or Nolan asynchronous story mixed with some van gogh painting…even with a golden tooth! The writer of this blog has done an amazing job! even after not getting his feelings reciprocated, jack surprises his buttercup that even after turning him down, his feelings are in the same time at the same place. he cant look at her eyes without sparking some because every time he looks at her, he is reminded of his unrequited love and it hurts him. He is electrified because of his unrequited love but he is ready to carry that burden. He says he is taken prisoner of the genuinity of his feelings for her when he says that he is locked up on the button but cannot count on his buttercup to reciprocate those feelings but doesn’t know when to stop trying unless he has “pushed it in too far”. by “can’t you do it sometime” he is requesting her to reciprocate to his feelings for her. I feel that by “forget it i’ll do it sometime” jack wants to disclose his feelings and keep them to a minimum to allow for reciprocity on the side of his “buttercup”. He is now not a man, but a flower, a little buttercup and should do the “thing” proper to this manifested form. Ones needs to do the “thing”, if not you will get stucked at this space/time reality until the end times. The real thing you are, your true being.ĭo you remember the beginning of the song? He “would do it sometime”, but as he did not at that time he reencarneted at the same time under the same solar system. Heart in philosophy is not the organ but the core of your being. He asks to the person/girl/concious universe puts enegy in his heart. “Electrify my golden tooth” means “Electrify my most real and unchangeable thing (golden)”, he is asking to this person/girl/concious universe puts enegy on it.ĭirect reference to icarus greek mythology – you can google it if you don’t know the story. That is the reason why we use it for jewelry too our body does not change electrons with golden atom. Golden is a good electricty conductor, but it is not only about that, this metal does not change with the enviroment. He things somebody else could do it on his behalf – not possible. It shows he is not prepare to do the “thing” at this time. In my opnion it is so much deeper than described by the article above.ĭo what? If it is not described, I would take it as the thing that we are here in life to do. Allow me to share my view of this lyrics.
