Head
Cher With Beavis And Butt-head Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sometimes when I look around
It's in my head
I get this strange feeling of life
It seems as if the world has just stopped going round,
For a moment, just for a while
I'll never give up screaming,
No need to ask me why
Sometimes I get that feeling
Looking down on the streets of our own town
Everything is falling apart inside
Behind those walls of fright
Television is on
At the window you seem so far.
It's in my head,
I hope that
It's in my head
I like that
And if I liked to get to you
I guess I'd have to be like you
And stay everynight locked in my house and scared.
It's something in my head




It keeps me burning inside and keeps me going my way
With no regrets and no pain.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Head" by Cher with Beavis and Butt-head express a sense of disconnect with the world and a feeling of being trapped within one's own mind. The opening lines indicate that the singer is experiencing a surreal moment where everything seems to have come to a standstill. The phrase "for a moment, just for a while" suggests that this feeling of detachment is fleeting and temporary. The repetition of the phrase "it's in my head" underscores the internal nature of this experience.


The second stanza is marked by a sense of despair and disillusionment. The singer observes that "everything is falling apart inside", which could be interpreted as a commentary on the decline of society or a personal emotional breakdown. The reference to "walls of fright" creates a sense of confinement and claustrophobia, further emphasizing the theme of being trapped.


The final stanza appears to reject the idea of conformity and encourages individuality. The line "I guess I'd have to be like you" suggests that there is pressure to conform to societal norms, but the singer refuses this idea, deciding to "keep going my way" instead. The phrase "with no regrets and no pain" could be interpreted as a rejection of the societal standards that cause so many people to suffer.

Sometimes when I look around
Occasionally, when I glance around my surroundings


It's in my head
A thought or idea is forming within my mind


I get this strange feeling of life
I experience an odd sensation of vitality


It seems as if the world has just stopped going round,
It appears as though the planet has come to a standstill


For a moment, just for a while
Only briefly, for a short duration of time


I'll never give up screaming,
I will continuously vocalize my thoughts and feelings


No need to ask me why
There is no reason to inquire about the cause of my actions


Sometimes I get that feeling
Occasionally, I experience that sense


Looking down on the streets of our own town
Observing the roads of our local community from a higher vantage point

Internally, various aspects and components are disintegrating


Behind those walls of fright
Hiding within those barriers of fear


Television is on
The television screen is currently active


At the window you seem so far.
When viewed through the windowpane, you appear quite distant


It's in my head,
Once again, it is a thought or concept in my mind,


I hope that
I possess an aspiration that


It's in my head
The idea remains within my consciousness


I like that

And if I liked to get to you
If I desired to connect with you

It is probable that I would need to emulate your behavior


And stay every night locked in my house and scared.
Furthermore, I would need to remain indoors every evening and experience fear


It's something in my head
Once more, there is a certain idea or thought pattern in my mind


It keeps me burning inside and keeps me going my way
It motivates me to continue on my path and fuels my internal fire


With no regrets and no pain.
Without feeling remorse or discomfort.

Love that Cher posted this on her official channel. Very few artists have that sense of humor and selflessness.

@misslb4800

@wokzilla We're talking about her PERSONALITY and the fact that she did this video. Who cares if she gets paid by Youtube? ๐Ÿ˜‚ She secured her financial security LONG before Youtube existed.

I love that Cher had enough of a sense of humor about herself to record this track.
Plus, she looks damn good in leather here!

@finishin.my.coffee8780

I agree. She looks even better here than she did in the 70s.

@theman3456

A woman mostly made of plastic in leather...

What man wouldn't be turned on by that?

@tolfan4438

At this point in time Beavis and butt head were doing her a favor letting her promote on their show
