Bide Your Time

The Courteeners

Transposer:

Intro: x2 The temptation is all to great And now its gone and its all to late I tried and I tried but I never applied Any of the morals that I wish I had (Same structure for verses) You wait 50 whole weeks Through all of your hides and all of your seeks When the time finally arrives It dawns on me that your attention derives From the girlfriend that you left at home Sitting in the living room all alone You hate the suntan And you cant stand to be around the short sleeved man And the gaggle of girls that are singing too loud Because they do my head in You hate the tattoos and you cant handle the skinheads The ones who cannot handle their booze They’re making you scared to be proud Why’s that not allowed (Same chord pattern) If you bide your time and you stand there and you wait in line It wont be long before her sarong is lying on your bedroom floor But what about the girlfriend that you left at home Sitting in the living room all alone You hate the suntan And you cant stand to be around the short sleeved man And the groups of girls who are singing dead loud Because they do my head in You hate the tattoos and you cant handle the skinheads The ones who cannot handle their booze They’re making you scared to be proud From the girlfriend that you left at home Sitting in the living room all alone You hate the suntan And you cant stand to be around the short sleeved man And the gaggle of girls who are singing too loud Because they do my head in You hate the tattoos and you cant handle the skinheads The ones who cannot handle their booze And they’re making you scared to be proud Why is that not allowed

La chanson aborde les thèmes de la désillusion et des choix difficiles dans les relations. Elle décrit la frustration de quelqu'un qui attend patiemment un moment qui semble prometteur, mais qui se rend compte que l'affection de l'autre personne est souvent détournée par des attentes irréalistes ou des attachements passés. L'artiste met en lumière le paradoxe d'une attirance vers quelqu'un tout en laissant derrière soi une personne qui souffre de solitude et d'abandon. Le contexte est celui d'une vie sociale mouvementée, où l'apparence et le jugement des autres jouent un rôle clé dans la perception de soi et des relations. Cela souligne la nécessité de réfléchir à nos véritables désirs et à ce que nous laissons derrière nous dans la quête de nouvelles expériences. Cela invite également à une réflexion sur la futilité des normes sociétales qui peuvent nous rendre plus insécures ou réticents à exprimer notre fierté, notamment quand il s'agit de choix personnels.
