Ambulance City
Pink Mountaintops Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Our ambulance city stuck in a station
What stays in a station, stays in a car
Our ambulance city stuck in a station
Station, station, station, station
They have to tell the weather
I drive you straight to me
Our ambulance city stuck in a station
What stays in a station, stays in a car
Our ambulance city stuck in a station
Station, station, station, station
Our ambulance city stuck in a station
What stays in a station, stays in a car
Our ambulance city stuck in a station
Station, station, station, station
Tsatio, station, station, station
Station, station, station, station
Pink Mountaintops' "Ambulance City" is a haunting song, full of imagery that paints a picture of a desolate and abandoned city. The lyrics suggest that the city is full of emergency responders, as evidenced by the repeated mentions of ambulances, and that it is stuck in a state of constant readiness, waiting for something to happen. The line "Have many pockets, waiting for nothing" suggests that the people in the city are prepared for anything, but that nothing ever comes.
The use of the phrase "What stays in a station, stays in a car" suggests a sense of isolation and confinement within the city. The people within the city are stuck within their roles and perhaps feel trapped within the city itself. The repetition of the word "station" only adds to the feeling of being stuck and unable to move forward.
