Step Right Up
Bianca Blanc Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm hypnotised by the way you move
I'm hypnotised by the things you do
You look into my eyes I feel I'm losing all control
Baby you are an illusion and I can't let you go

Step right up and tell me how to groove
You've taken over and I don't know what to do
Step right up
I bought a ticket to your freak show
And this roller coaster ride
I'm mystified

In your deck of cards
I'm your queen of hearts
You use misdirection as love games
Sleight of hand has taken what is mine
And now I'm stuck in your chains

Step right up and tell me how to groove
You've taken over and I don't know what to do
Step right up
I bought a ticket to your freak show
And this roller coaster ride
I'm mystified

I'm walking a tightrope with you
I feel like the class clown
Smoke and mirrors hide the things you do
But I'm the ringmaster now

Step right up and tell me how to groove
You've taken over and I don't know what to do
Step right up
I bought a ticket to your freak show

And this roller coaster ride
I'm mystified

The object of their fascination is an illusion that they can't let go of, creating a sense of longing and desire.


The chorus, "Step right up and tell me how to groove," suggests a plea for guidance, as the singer acknowledges being taken over by this person and feeling uncertain about how to navigate the situation. They compare their experience to being at a freak show, having bought a ticket and now being on a thrilling but bewildering roller coaster ride. The mention of being mystified reflects the singer's confusion and being unable to fully understand what is happening.

The bridge brings a metaphor of walking a tightrope with this person, evoking a sense of danger and uncertainty. Despite feeling like the class clown and being aware of the smoke and mirrors hiding this person's true intentions, the singer declares themselves as the ringmaster, taking control of the situation and implying a shift in power dynamics.


Overall, "Step Right Up" explores themes of fascination, entrapment, and uncertainty in a relationship where the boundaries are blurred and the singer feels both captivated and mystified.
