Falling Down Hurts
Daiquiri Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't mean no harm
Sorry if I am snoring
Ozzie drank too much
Alice drank too much
_____________
I'm feeling better now
Trying to take a step
But I am falling down
Look at Riley go
She can't really play
Play for Daiquiri
She says that she's great
She's not in the bed
Nuh, no, no, nuh-uh
Are you feeling better now?
I'm feeling better now
Trying to take a step
But I am falling down
Skip keeping steady
Using one foot at a time
I could use some help
Please give me a hand
Would you, won't you please?
Are you feeling better now?
I'm feeling better now
Trying to take a step
But I am falling down
Just not looking out
It's my own fault
______
Trying to take a bath
Bubbles to wash it off
Fall in and sleep in it
_________
I was getting bored
I was getting bored
I was getting bored, bored, bored, bored
The lyrics of Daiquiri's "Falling Down Hurts" depict the aftermath of a night of heavy drinking, where the singer is lying down, snoring and trying to recover from the hangover. The reference to Ozzie and Alice drinking too much suggests that the whole group was indulging in excessive alcohol consumption. The second verse shifts the focus to another member of the group, Riley, who is apparently not a very good musician despite claiming to be great. The chorus repeats twice, with the singer struggling to get back on their feet but falling down repeatedly. The line "skip keeping steady, using one foot at a time" further emphasizes the difficulty of walking while being drunk. In the third verse, the singer admits that their inability to look out for themselves is their own fault, perhaps hinting at a sense of regret or self-loathing.
The bridge introduces a new scene, with the singer attempting to take a bath to feel better, but inevitably falling asleep in the tub due to the intoxication. The final verse returns to the singer's state of boredom, implying that the drunken escapade was merely an attempt to break the monotony of everyday life, but ultimately resulted in a painful and unpleasant experience.
Overall, the lyrics of "Falling Down Hurts" paint a vivid picture of the consequences of excessive drinking, but also touch upon themes of regret, boredom, and self-destructive behavior.
