Little Things
Alice. Lyrics

You can burn my house, You can cut my hair
Alice is saying she doesn't care about big issues like losing her house in a fire or getting her hair cut. These things are insignificant compared to the little things that drive her crazy.

You can make me wrestle naked with a grizzly bear,
Alice is using hyperbole to emphasize that she is willing to endure extreme hardship, but she can't stand the little things that bother her.

You can poison my cat, Baby I don't care,
Alice is saying that even her beloved pet can be harmed, but still doesn't matter as much as the little things that annoy her on a daily basis.

But if you talk in the movies I'll kill you right there
Alice is being humorous by making a comically over-the-top threat to show how much the little things like people talking during a movie drive her crazy.

It's the little things
Alice is repeating the phrase to emphasize that the small, everyday annoyances are what truly bother her.

I'm like a mad dog
Alice is comparing herself to an animal that is unpredictable and aggressive when provoked.

I'm on a short leash
Alice is saying that she feels restricted and constrained, perhaps by the little things that bother her.

I'm on a tight rope hanging by a thread
Alice is using a metaphor to describe how precarious her mental state is. She feels like she could snap at any moment because of the little things that continually bother her.

You push me too far
Alice is telling someone that they are responsible for pushing her to her limit with their actions or behaviors.

Welcome to my nightmare
Alice is saying that the little things that bother her are her own personal hell, a never-ending nightmare.

No more Mr. Nice Guy
Alice is saying that she's done with being polite and understanding about the little things that bother her. She's going to stand up for herself and demand that others respect her.

You can steal my car and drive it into the lake
Alice is using hyperbole to show that losing her possessions doesn't matter to her as much as the little things that bother her.

You can stick me in the oven and put it on bake
Alice is using more hyperbole to show that experiencing physical harm is less of a concern to her than the little things that annoy her.

You could throw a big brick through my window pane
Alice is saying that she can handle significant damage to her property, but she can't handle the little things that bother her.

But if I ever hear you ask me how I got my name
Alice is using humor to show that asking her an innocuous question like how she got her name is one of the little things that can easily send her over the edge.

I've done it all
Alice is saying that she's been through a lot in her life and can handle hardship.

I mean I been everywhere
Alice is emphasizing that she's seen a lot and experienced much in her life so that it takes a lot to bother her.

And I can deal with that
Alice is saying that she can handle significant problems in her life.

But its the little things
Again, Alice is saying that it's the little things that bother her the most, not the big issues she's faced in life.

I'm just a psycho Pathic psycho pathic
Alice is saying that the little things have made her irrational, perhaps a bit crazy or unhinged.
