I didn’t know those were the words until like last year when the song came up in topic and people were talking about how it was such a wild song and I had no idea what was happening
On numerous occasions I’ve found it hilarious/disturbing to be at a bar or club or wherever and people are dancing to or singing along without a clue to some song that, if they actually listented to and understood the lyrics, would make them question their existence.
A long time ago, I was with a group of friends choosing music for one of their weddings. We were listening to some 90s song and the groom was like “ah yeah this is a good song” and I laughed and was like “you know this song is about killing yourself, right?” At first he doubted, but then really taken aback, and then looked up the lyrics and, to my understanding, never listened to it again.
I’m trying to remember the song, but can’t. If I do remember, I’ll edit this comment. But yeah, it’s wild how hardly understandable lyrics can dramatically change a songs meaning and feel.

There’s so many from the 90s. Could be 100s of possibilities.
