Cook Me Into The Bowl
Buck-O-Nine Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I was up all night
And it feels so good
But I can't decide
I've been drinkin' like a monster
If or ever, when can I?
Your givin' me the flu
Less soul, imagination
One shot of desperation
Cook me into the bowl
Write it all down
On a fuckin' piece of paper
It doesn't mean a thing
I want to sail around the world
Fever! Fever!
What's the lesson, not my turn
Pushing every button
Not sure if I'll ever learn
That I don't know about anything
I don't know what to do
So I gotta get away
Away from something
Gotta get away
Don't know what to do
Gotta get away
Away from something
It might as well be you
So I'll lie again, lie again
What's the use in suffering
Cook me up higher
Than I've ever been before
Got a migraine and I'm
About to fuckin' go insane
Just gotta kick it
Say that I'm bored
That I don't know about anything
I don't know what to do
So I gotta get away
Away from something
Gotta get away
Don't know what to do
Gotta get away
Away from something
It might as well be you
Got a fever, got a fever
I was up all night
And it feels so good
But I can't decide
I've been drinkin' like a monster
If or ever, when can I?
Your givin' me the flu
Less soul, imagination
Lets stroll down the middle of the road
One shot of desperation
Cook me into the bowl
That I don't know about anything
I don't know what to do
So I gotta get away
Away from something
Gotta get away
Don't know what to do
Gotta get away
Away from something
Ohh shit
So I gotta get away
Away from something
Gotta get away
Don't know what to do
Gotta get away
Away from something
Fuck you
The song "Cook Me Into The Bowl" by Buck-O-Nine is a fast-paced, punk rock song with lyrics that appear to describe a feeling of being lost or unsure about life. The repeated refrain of "got a fever" creates a sense of restlessness or discomfort, and the lyrics suggest that the singer is trying to escape from something, without really knowing what they are running from or towards.
The lines "Write it all down on a fuckin' piece of paper, it doesn't mean a thing" suggests that the singer is frustrated with their inability to articulate their thoughts or feelings, and that they feel trapped in their own mind. The reference to "sailing around the world" seems to imply a desire for adventure or escape, but the constant repetition of "gotta get away" suggests that the singer feels stuck or trapped in their current situation.
The final line of the song, "Fuck you", adds a sense of aggression or defiance to the lyrics, suggesting that the singer is angry or frustrated, possibly with themselves or with the world around them. Overall, "Cook Me Into The Bowl" is a high-energy, somewhat chaotic song that captures the feeling of being lost or confused, while also expressing a desire for change or escape.
Line by Line Meaning
Got a fever, got a fever
Feeling restless and agitated
I was up all night
Unable to sleep due to the fever
And it feels so good
Despite being unwell, there's still something pleasurable about it
But I can't decide
Feeling uncertain about what to do
I've been drinking like a monster
Consumed a lot of alcohol
If or ever, when can I?
Wondering when things will change or get better
Your giving me the flu
Blaming someone or something for feeling unwell
Less soul, imagination
Feeling uninspired and lacking creativity
Lets stroll down the middle of the road
Going through the motions, not making any real decisions or taking any risks
One shot of desperation
Trying one last attempt at something, out of desperation
Cook me into the bowl
Suggesting a desire to be consumed or assimilated into something greater
Write it all down on a fucking piece of paper
Trying to make sense of things by writing them down
It doesn't mean a thing
Feeling like none of it is useful or worthwhile
I want to sail around the world
Dreaming of a grand adventure or escape
What's the lesson, not my turn
Wondering what can be learned from a situation that seems out of one's control
Pushing every button
Testing limits and boundaries
Not sure if I'll ever learn
Feeling like mistakes are being repeated
That I don't know about anything
Feeling uncertain and ignorant
I don't know what to do
Feeling lost and directionless
So I gotta get away, away from something
Feeling like a change of scenery or situation is necessary
It might as well be you
Deciding to blame someone else for problems or frustrations
So I'll lie again, lie again
Brooding over past deceptions or mistakes
What's the use in suffering
Questioning the reasons for pain and hardship
Cook me up higher than I've ever been before
Desiring an intense experience, even if it involves risk or danger
Got a migraine and I'm about to fucking go insane
Feeling overwhelmed and on the verge of losing control
Just gotta kick it, say that I'm bored
Trying to shake off the negative feelings by dismissing them
Fuck you
Expressing anger or frustration towards someone or something
Oh shit
Exclaiming surprise or panic
