Exile on Frog Street
Ariel Pink Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Banished from the junkyard paradise
Stuck in Vegas with my loaded dice
Looks like a vacant lot and tumbleweed
Go out and try to succeed
By that highway, broken down

Exile on frog street
Exile on frog street
I'm not a gambler
They call me the rambler
I'm just a scrambler
But you know I have the style
You know that I'm an exile on frog street

Exile on frog street
I'm not a toad
I'm not a toad
I'm just a
Frog

The enchanted frog was waiting for his princess charming
To come and kiss him on his frog lips
And who'd he turn into?
Me!
(Why?)
Cause I'm the frog prince

Frog

Exile on frog street

Where all the elves two step two
So come on down to the rendezvous

Exile

Overall Meaning

On Frog Street is a song by Ariel Pink that talks about being banished from an idyllic paradise and being stuck in a place like Vegas with loaded dice, indicating a sense of disillusionment and lack of control. The lyrics describe the singer as a scrambler, rather than a gambler, who is just trying to succeed but is broken down by a highway. The phrase "exile on frog street" is repeated throughout the song, indicating a sense of alienation and being out of place. The song ends with a reference to the frog prince, emphasizing the theme of transformation, and the line "where all the elves two step two" suggests a celebration of being different and unconventional.
