Bunny In A Bunny Suit
Simone White Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Pretending to be myself again
Acting as if I was who I am
Wearing the clothes that I always wear
Doing the usual thing to my hair

Pretending to myself again
In the tale I'm the person I've always been
Legally changing my name to my name
Making believe I'm exactly the same

Bunny in a bunny suit
Tiger in a tiger mask
Who in the world do you think that I am
I suppose it depends on who you ask

Of all the disguises I've ever worn
I flatter myself in the most sincere form
Still I'm kept at a distance by friends
For just pretending to be myself again

A bunny in a bunny suit
Vampire with plastic teeth
Who in the world do I think that I am
I suppose it depends on who I believe

Overall Meaning

The song "Bunny In A Bunny Suit" by Simone White reflects on the idea of pretending to be oneself. The song begins by stating, "Pretending to be myself again, acting as if I was who I am". Here, the singer acknowledges the façade she puts up by dressing in the same clothes and doing the usual thing to her hair, as if to put up a front to the people she meets. The theme is further laid out in the next verse when she talks about "Legally changing my name to my name, making believe I'm exactly the same". The singer makes it clear that she is going through the motions of her daily routine but there's a disconnect between who she is and who she is perceived to be by others.


In the chorus, she mentions several costumes that she has worn — "Bunny in a bunny suit, tiger in a tiger mask, vampire with plastic teeth" — and ponders, "Who in the world do you think that I am? I suppose it depends on who you ask". This implies that despite her attempts at presenting herself authentically in these costumes, the reactions of others could vary widely depending on their perceptions of her. The song ends on a somewhat melancholic note with the singer acknowledging that even though she is pretending to be herself, she is still kept at a distance by friends. The lyrics subtly hint at the complexities of identity and the difficulty of conveying one's true self to others.


Line by Line Meaning

Pretending to be myself again
Acting like I'm someone else, once more


Acting as if I was who I am
Playing a role I'm familiar with


Wearing the clothes that I always wear
Dressing in my usual attire


Doing the usual thing to my hair
Maintaining my customary hairstyle


In the tale I'm the person I've always been
In my story, I stay true to myself


Legally changing my name to my name
Formalizing my identity


Making believe I'm exactly the same
Imagining I'm still the person I was


Of all the disguises I've ever worn
Out of all my costumes


I flatter myself in the most sincere form
I think my current guise is most genuine


Still I'm kept at a distance by friends
My friends sense I'm not being authentic


For just pretending to be myself again
Merely acting like my usual self


Bunny in a bunny suit
Dressed as a rabbit, as expected


Tiger in a tiger mask
Wearing a tiger guise, no more, no less


Who in the world do you think that I am
What opinion of me is held by others


I suppose it depends on who you ask
Not everyone will see me the same way


Vampire with plastic teeth
Masquerading as a blood sucker with fake fangs


Who in the world do I think that I am
What perception do I hold of myself


I suppose it depends on who I believe
My self-image could vary based on my own judgment
