Look At Me
Allie Goertz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm here to help your dreams come true
I'm Mr. Meeseeks look at me
Look at me
Look at me
Let me help you now
Then i'll be free
What will i do
If i cannot fix you
Can i get a hand
This is more than one of me could stand
I'm losing my mind
How many more times can i try
Before we all die
I'm Mr. Meeseeks
I'm here to help your dreams come true
And it's not that easy to do
When you dont believe in you
Look at me, my head is bulbous
But it can't encompass how you cope with all this
Indecision. Pick a purpose,
Put me to it. I'm at your service.
At your earliest convenience,
We'll commence. Then I'll get me hence,
And disappear in a puff of nothing,
Hoping you don't gotta summon another one.
If you do, no skin off mine,
If I've already served my time
In this intensely-petty-problem-having
And ramshackle dimension
Where my resolve is tested by some failing
You offhandedly mentioned.
I'll get you fixed eventually.
I'm Mister Meeseeks, look at me!
Let me help you now
Then I'll be free
Then I'll be free
The lyrics of Allie Goertz's song "Look at Me" references the character Mr. Meeseeks from the animated television series Rick and Morty. In the show, Mr. Meeseeks is a creature summoned by pressing a button on a Meeseeks box, whose sole purpose is to complete a task designated by their summoner before disappearing. In the song, Mr. Meeseeks has the same purpose - helping the summoner achieve their dreams or goals. However, as the song progresses, it becomes clear that the task may not be as simple as initially anticipated, and Mr. Meeseeks starts to struggle with the pressure of being unable to fix their summoner's problems. The line "What will I do if I cannot fix you?" highlights this struggle, and the repeated phrase "Look at me" serves as Mr. Meeseeks' plea for help and attention from their summoner.
The lyrics also touch on the larger themes of self-doubt and not believing in oneself, reflected in lines such as "And it's not that easy to do when you don't believe in you." Despite being a fictional character, Mr. Meeseeks' struggles can serve as a metaphor for anyone who feels overwhelmed by the pressure to help and fix others, especially when they themselves are struggling with their own insecurities.
