Beautiful People
Hallucinogen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I didn't tell you what kinda mood I was coming back into.
Did I, fuckers? Jesus is back, but he's pissed"
"Beautiful people, beautiful people"
The opening lyrics of Hallucinogen's song "Beautiful People" immediately set a confrontational tone, with the singer announcing their return and their anger towards something or someone. The use of profanity adds to the intensity of the moment, indicating that the singer is not here to mince words. The line "Jesus is back, but he's pissed" is particularly interesting, as it combines the singer's apparent rage with a reference to a religious figure. This suggests that the singer sees themselves as a powerful force, capable of righteous anger and perhaps even divine retribution.
As the song progresses, the refrain of "beautiful people" takes on a more ambiguous meaning. It could be interpreted as a commentary on the superficiality of societal standards of beauty, and how those standards are often used to judge and exclude certain individuals. Alternatively, it could be read as a celebration of those who have managed to overcome societal barriers and achieve some measure of success or recognition. The repetition of the phrase throughout the song creates a hypnotic effect, as if the singer is trying to implant this message in the listener's mind.
Overall, "Beautiful People" is a complex and challenging song that raises questions about power, identity, and beauty. The use of provocative language and imagery forces the listener to confront uncomfortable realities, while the hypnotic quality of the music draws them deeper into the singer's worldview.

For all the newcomers here, the other comments are wrong. This has always been known as an OTT mix. A google search turned up this quote from Simon about OTT:
"He lives in a limestone cave in Hicksville, where he built a generator out of an old lawnmower engine, and cobbled together a studio out of bits of old televisions. – He works on an old 32k BBC microcomputer built into his chair, suspended from the roof. He has midi shoes, with which he ‘tapdances’ his drum parts…. But he has excellent mixing ears, which he enhances with a kind of Far-extension-hat…. so he was a natural choice to mix beautiful people…… I didn’t have time to do it, as I was doing "Mi-Loony-um’, and he stepped in to do "Beautiful People" so I would have them both for Christmas! I paid him with pornography."
