Tupperware Queen

The Beautiful South

Transposer:

Standard Tuning [Intro]                  [Verse 1] This reign of plastic That replaced the reign of gold Couldn’t have known that you Would feel so undersold If love was built on hindsight Then you surely would have seen You were joining hands With the Tupperware Queen [Verse 2] Yes you gave a groan When I took that throne But can you choose a Queen When you behave like a drone Where the silverware’s not expected And certainly never been That’s the ideal kingdom Of this Tupperware Queen [Verse 3] I didn’t mean to fool you Into feeling King Of anything but plastic And what plastic brings If gold is what she had It’s what I could’ve been The unaffordable dream Of this Tupperware Queen [Verse 4] Yes you gave a groan When I took that throne But don’t expect a gem When you’re quarrying for stone Where the silverware’s not expected And certainty never been That’s the ideal kingdom Of this Tupperware Queen [Verse 5] In future when that moan Has turned to prone And the slightest groan Feels so overblown Remember you’re a drone And the Queen however plastic Runs the honeycomb Runs the honeycomb Honeycomb honey honey Remember you’re a drone And the Queen however plastic Runs the honeycomb

La chanson évoque le contraste entre des désirs romantiques idéalisés et la réalité banale de la vie quotidienne. Elle met en lumière la déception ressentie par une personne qui, en cherchant à s'élever dans une relation, se retrouve finalement attirée par un monde de consommation et de plasticité. L’image de la "Reine Tupperware" symbolise l'ordinaire, avec un potentiel d’éclat clairement non réalisé. Ainsi, malgré l'hésitation et la frustration du protagoniste, le message semble souligner que parfois, le rêve est remplacé par des choix pratiques mais décevants.
