floated in
Frankie Cosmos Lyrics

The opening lines of "Floated In" by Frankie Cosmos mark both the start of the song and the beginning of the singer's new life. The phrase "floated in" may suggest a sense of detachment or a feeling of weightlessness, as if the singer has been lifted out of one reality and set down in another. The phrase "started living" implies that the singer's previous existence was somehow lacking or incomplete, and that their new life is full of promise and possibility.

The middle section of the song turns to a conversation between two people. It is unclear who these people are, but the repeated question "what are you doing" suggests a desire for insight or connection. The line "now it would be bedtime" adds a sense of urgency or finality to the conversation, as if there is a sense of resolution that needs to be reached before the end of the day. The reference to "thoughts on T-VU" creates a sense of escapism, a desire to tune out the world and retreat into one's own mind.

The final section of the song returns to the opening lines, with a slight variation. Rather than simply "starting living," the singer now affirms their desire to "rummage through your silky pink space car." This image may suggest a thirst for adventure or exploration, a desire to break out of the routine of everyday life and see what else is out there. The repeated question "what are you doing" now takes on a more personal meaning, as if the singer is searching for a deeper connection with the person they are addressing.
