Mr. Past
Alaska Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To stay no longer than one day or two
Before I could tell you not to your clothes lay
on the table in my living room
And although I never told you to make
yourself at home you’d do
all of these things that only everyone
Drinking from all of my cups and puking
all over my beloved rugs
Therefore the wish in me grew
to squash you like a cockroach in my dining room
So long, Mister Past. Time to go on cause
you’re free at last and I’ve grown so sick
and tired of you
Go on, Mister. Past. Don’t you hold on cause you’re free at last and I’m done
with all the games you played
No more no sleepless nights no endless fights
of drinking all of my beer
You heard you’re really not welcome
so better leave or I’ll make you disappear
The song "Mr. Past" by Alaska is a powerful and emotionally charged piece about someone who has overstayed their welcome. The singer sings about how the subject came to stay for "one day or two" but ended up staying much longer, and despite never being invited, made themselves completely at home. They went as far as to puke all over the singer's rugs, a moment that became a breaking point for the singer. They wish to "squash" the subject "like a cockroach" and are no longer willing to deal with their games.
The song's lyrics carry a strong sense of frustration, betrayal, and anger, as the singer is tired of putting up with the subject's disrespectful behavior. The use of metaphors such as the cockroach and the repeated phrase "you're free at last" add a layer of bitterness to the overall message of the song. The lyrics display how some people can outstay their welcome and take advantage of others' hospitality, leading to resentment and a desire for them to leave.
Line by Line Meaning
When you moved in you promised
When you first came to stay as a guest
To stay no longer than one day or two
You said you'd only be here for a short time
Before I could tell you not to your clothes lay
Before I had a chance to ask you not to leave your clothes out
on the table in my living room
You left your clothes on my living room table
And although I never told you to make
Even though I never asked you to make
yourself at home you’d do
You got too comfortable as if it were your home
all of these things that only everyone
You were doing things that only people who live here should do
apart from you’s allowed to do
Everyone else knows these things are not allowed
Drinking from all of my cups and puking
Drinking from all of my cups and then throwing up
all over my beloved rugs
Ruining my favorite rugs with your vomit
Therefore the wish in me grew
That's why I started to wish
to squash you like a cockroach in my dining room
I wanted to get rid of you like a pest
So long, Mister Past. Time to go on cause
Goodbye, Old Me. It's time to move on because
you’re free at last and I’ve grown so sick
You're finally gone and I'm relieved
and tired of you
I'm exhausted by all of your antics
Go on, Mister. Past. Don’t you hold on cause you’re free at last and I’m done
Move on, Old Me. Don't hang on because I'm over it now
with all the games you played
I'm tired of all the tricks you pulled
No more no sleepless nights no endless fights
I won't have any more nights of losing sleep or fighting with you
of drinking all of my beer
Because you drank all of my beer
You heard you’re really not welcome
I've told you that you're not wanted here
so better leave or I’ll make you disappear
So you'd better leave before I have to force you out

I think you should do one about Alabama. People have many outrageous stereotypes about Alabama like how it's just a bunch of cornfields, "hillbillies" and that we "sleep with our cousins." They don't think the state has cities just like any other state. I showed one guy in Atlanta a picture of downtown Mobile, Alabama, he was shocked that it had tall buildings in the city. I think that would be a good one for you
