Hi!-Population Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Meet me in the alley, my suit's clean but I am dirty
When I look at myself I close my eyes to shut you out
I'm a joke and you're a work of art
A vision, a flashback, a meeting
But I never fit in
Let's stop pretending like I wasn't born with plenty
When I dream of you I see a door with your name on
I am your new client, and I'm very hard to please
I just wanna make some sense out of everything
I'm giddy, I'm silly, I'm sober
Back to the poison pool
Yeah you are filthy rich, but how is your family?
Show me how it makes you feel
At the time it felt so real
Watch the world go up in flames
Walk away and take my name
Abundance, a severance
I wanna burn this whole place to ashes
A look of recognition, an unwelcome proposition
You look so familiar, there's a stain on my soul
Everything I say is innuendo
So funny, so fearless, so lonely
I have a busy afternoon
It was fun while it lasted but was just a flight of fancy




Is that all there is well maybe it was never meant to be so
Let's stop pretending like I wasn't born with plenty

Overall Meaning

In these lyrics, Hi!-Population conveys a sense of contradiction and inner turmoil. The opening line "Meet me in the alley, my suit's clean but I am dirty" sets the tone for a juxtaposition between appearances and reality. The singer seems to be presenting themselves as put-together, yet recognizes their own flaws and imperfections.


The line "When I look at myself I close my eyes to shut you out" suggests a desire to escape judgment or criticism from others. The singer might be struggling with self-acceptance and finds solace in avoiding the gaze of others.


The phrase "I'm a joke and you're a work of art" speaks to a feeling of inadequacy compared to someone else. It implies a sense of admiration and perhaps envy towards another person who is viewed as more refined or successful. This juxtaposition between the singer's self-perceived inadequacy and the perceived greatness of another creates a contrast.


The line "Let's stop pretending like I wasn't born with plenty" hints at a discrepancy between the singer's inner feelings and outward circumstances. Despite having material abundance, they still struggle with personal fulfillment and a sense of belonging.


The lyrics continue with the line "When I dream of you I see a door with your name on," which suggests a longing for connection or intimacy with someone specific. The mention of being a "new client" and wanting to please implies a desire to be accepted or valued by this person.


The mention of being "giddy, silly, sober" suggests emotional volatility and a search for stability. The singer seems to be grappling with conflicting emotions, moving between excitement and seriousness.


The reference to the "poison pool" alludes to a toxic environment or situation that the singer may find themselves in. It might symbolize negative influences or destructive patterns that they want to distance themselves from.


The mention of the person being "filthy rich" raises questions about the impact of wealth and material possessions on their personal life. The singer seems to be curious or concerned about the well-being of this person's family and wants to understand how their wealth affects them.


The line "I wanna burn this whole place to ashes" expresses a desire for destruction and renewal. It suggests a longing for change and a willingness to let go of everything to find a fresh start.


The lyrics continue with feelings of confusion, recognition, and an unwelcome proposition. The singer acknowledges a familiar presence but feels uncomfortable or unsettled by it. There is a mention of a stain on their soul, which implies past experiences or actions that may have left a mark.


The phrase "Everything I say is innuendo" suggests that the singer might use indirect or veiled language to hide their true thoughts or feelings. This hints at a fear of vulnerability and a tendency to mask their emotions.


The closing line "Let's stop pretending like I wasn't born with plenty" serves as a repetition and reinforcement of the earlier mentioned theme of conflicting internal emotions. Despite having material wealth, the singer feels a sense of disconnect and wants to break free from the pretense of having it all together.


Overall, these lyrics delve into themes of self-doubt, a search for identity, and the complexities of human relationships. They paint a picture of a person grappling with contradictions between their external circumstances and internal struggles, ultimately seeking authenticity and meaningful connections.

Villhelm

The issue with gender dysphoria is that a female who thinks she’s male for example actually had no idea what being a male really is like - in the same way that I don’t know what being a dog is like.

A human does not have the neurological structure, hormone profile or brain structure of a dog and therefore can never know what it feels like to be a dog.

A woman does not have the physiology, neurological structure, brain or hormone profile of a man, and therefore can never know what it feels like to be a man.

Someone with gender dysphoria is acting what they THINK it feels like to be the other sex - but they can’t possibly know for the reasons mentioned and also because they have no comparative reference point because they’ve only ever been themselves.

Gender dysphoria is an unfortunate delusional state, that some unethical fools are trying to treat with hormones and mutilation.

In the U.S., 1 out of 37 children are now born with Autism. In the last 20 years babies born with birth defects has doubled. Gender Dysphoria rates are staggering.
Factory farmed livestock are given synthetic estrogens in their feed such as "Revular", used to make the animals gain weight faster, these synthetic estrogens are ending up in the waterways, the animal waste is also used as fertilizer along with human biowaste from treatment plants for food crops.
The majority of contamination areas are in the agricultural beltway, including Ohio, Michigan, Missouri. These states correlate with the biggest rise of birth defects, Autism and Gender Dysphoria.

The "corn" that is added to animal feed is the byproduct from ethanol refining and corn oil refining and the
Rapeseed from canola oil refining, same with soy, all of which are also GMO'S.
Seed oils, corn, canola, vegetable and (palm oil), are extracted using the endocrine disruptor and toxin, Hexane.
PFAS, Phthalates are in nearly humans blood and breast milk.
Endocrine Disrupting chemicals have been associated with Gender Dysphoria and Autism, Autoimmune diseases, low testosterone, birth defects, and low fertility rates. There are also related to mental health conditions.
All of the synthetic petroleum based bioengineered chemicals are toxins that are recycled by the liver back into the blood stream and stored in the bones. These are forever chemicals that are accumulative in both human and animal bodies.
These chemicals are in municipal tap water, meat, dairy and every processed food.
Flouride as hydrofluorosilic and hexafluorosilic acid, which are byproducts from the phosphate fertilizer and aluminum manufacturing industries are added to treat municipal water as cheap substitutes for sodium flouride, and are also used in the manufacturing of pesticides and fungicides.
90% of chronic illness and all autoimmune diseases are related to toxic processed chemical laden food.

What to do:
Distill your own water
Buy grass fed organic, pasture raised meats and dairy.
Grow your own veggies or buy local, small farm organics.
Eliminate through diet and exercise the need for bioengineered petroleum based synthetic chemical pharmaceuticals that are used by the medical industry to treat symptoms of these same chemicals.

It is cheaper to buy high quality foods than to buy or use pharmaceuticals.
The quality of your life depends on what you put into and on your body.



Steven Friend

So, my first year of high school was marked by change. The most significant of which was the onset of puberty! I grew an astonishing nine and a half inches before the summer of 1962. I had started the school year as a relatively small underdeveloped, … but properly proportioned twelve-year-old boy. Although I looked more like a nine-year-old!
Of course, growing taller wasn’t the only change I experienced. Although it was the most noticeable. It wasn’t until I saw a photo of myself taken at a pool party sometime in early July 1962. The first change that caught my eye was that I looked tall and skinny! The second thing I noticed was my scrotums. They appeared swollen. My testicles had finally migrated into my scrotums which didn’t noticeably protrude from my groin like other boys until then. One of the insignificant differences I noted while I was growing up.
The third thing in the photograph that caught my eye was my teeny-weeny nub of a penis. It had grown. It was no longer a stubby nub. It was longer and thicker, something that would please almost any adolescent boy. I was starting to look more like other boys! The last and most disconcerting thing I observed in that picture was my huge hands. They appeared disproportionately large! After looking at them and then down at my feet, I realized they also seemed unduly oversized. I now understood why Bobby’s mother and my grandmother complained about having to buy me new shoes nearly every other month.

I suppose I should explain how I discovered the cause of my extraordinary growth.
I entered the tenth grade at Nathanial Narbonne high school in September 1963. Sometime during the spring semester of 1964, I got tired of the physical education coach taunting me for being lazy. So, I ran for all I was worth with the other boys. I didn’t even make it halfway around the track before I collapsed. I was taken to the school’s infirmary, where I was examined by a doctor. He was an older man who must have been in his sixties.
The old doctor nearly fell off his stool when he took my pulse. I had a relaxed pulse of 160. So, my mother was called, and I was taken to the hospital, where I was immediately admitted. After many tests, I learned that I had a malfunctioning Pituitary gland. This gland was the cause of my underdevelopment when I was younger. Why I was small for my age and why my testicles hadn’t properly migrated down into my scrotums! My now overactive Pituitary was also responsible for my extraordinary growth the preceding year.
Anyway, … after a three-day stay in the hospital, I was sent home with medication.
Because the doctors couldn’t correct my malfunctioning Pituitary gland, and my Pituitary caused my Thyroid to overproduce. They treated my Thyroid. After taking a suppressant for a while, my mother and I were given a choice. Either surgery or radiation to correct my Thyroid condition. We opted for the radioactive iodine treatment to destroy a part of my overactive Thyroid. I was given iodine in the morning and returned to school.
By the 1964 summer break from school, my physical health was under control.

There was a big case in Puerto Rico during the 80’s (?)
where young girls (too young) were having periods
& developing breasts due to the chicken supply that was injected w an insane amount of hormones for rapid growth.

This has been going on for a minute now
and it’s finally reached critical mass.

There is a way through this issue and it involves
a massive cleanup within and without, as above,
so below.

Best of luck out there.



Learn Thai - Rapid Method

Wow! A real scientist. It's people like Dr Shanna that one can truly trust to come up with the right answers (and, more importantly, the right questions).

I'm in Thailand, probably world-renouned for it's transsexuals (ladyboys) and somewhat "feminine" values (as a trend, as it also has a strong "macho" culture of course).

It's so normalised here that locals and expats hardly notice, but it struck me one day (at a rooftop public pool) that Thai men (and other Asian men, Japanese, Filipinos, some Indians, etc.) have almost no body hair! It's almost impossible to find a Western (Caucasian) man without any body hair - and even women have a body fuzz, hairy arms and legs and armpits (there's a whole industry devoted to shaving it all off)!

That got me thinking that there's something either in the genetic makeup of Asians in general or in their dietrs or the environment that results in lower levels of testosterone and other hormones that produce secondary sexual characteristics. And that would lead to slightly more effeminate men, much more pronouncely feminine women and a significant minority of ladyboys, and of course more acceptance towards gay relationships and a more fluid sense of gender.

This must have been going on for a long time, perhaps even over tens of thousands of years (if it's genetic). But even if it is environmental, it's already ingrained in the language. Women almost never use the masculine forms of the language to refer to themselves, but everyone uses the feminine froms of the language to refer to each other in intimate ways. Men use the "feminine" pronoun to refer to themselves when with their mates or if they're in a close-knit family or an intimate relationship. The word "you" between lovers is the word for "she" and can refer to the man or the woman in a relationship.

Culturally too, Thais seem more feminine at least when compared to the West, which takes a very strong, religious, dogmatic stance against gender fluidity and same-sex relationships and values masculine qualities like indepnendence, aloneness, strength and violence and war. Thais value patience and subservience to the community or to one's family for the same of harmony.

My question (to Dr Shanna and others) is: what is it about the environment in Thailand (and possibly neighbouring countries like Vietnam, Japan, The Philippines) that could have caused this to occure naturally, perhaps over decades if not centuries? Or could it be a more recent cultural shift (like we're already seeing alarmingly with respect to diets and obesity, diabetes and heart diseases)?

It doesn't seem to be affecting their fertility, though. Thai women give birth to as many children as before. Any reduction in population growth is probably the result of economics and prosperity and access to contraceptives and birth control, as with anywhere else in the world.

But there is a slight gender imbalance, slightly more women overall than men. And of the men, a relatively high preponderance towards bisexuality or transsexual behaviour and of those wanting to make the transition permanent (with gender reasssignment surgery).

What's going on in Thailand?

Your Verso ad hooked me. I see a lot of YT channels that approach their sponsorships by poorly reading a pre written monologue about the product. Your approach is very professional and I think more companies should reach out to channels that take a professional approach. Cheers.

Thank you for bringing attention to these issues! I've been an organic gardener for decades and have gradually removed a great deal of chemicals from my home including cleaning products, plastic wares, personal care products and foods. We're not perfect and it's a huge challenge to tackle all the things that expose is to chemicals. I've saved a lot of money on cleaning products and personal care products but spend a little more on makeup and food. Growing some food and having chickens for eggs helps too. All you need for cleaning is baking soda, castile soap, peroxide, borax, lemon juice, vinegar....simple things do an amazing job at cleaning.

a little eyeliner or eyeshadow goes a long way, im sure you dont need much , elf brand is affordable and have multiple eyeshadow palettes that are really pretty

Isn't makeup putting chemicals directly on your skin?

My Cozy Garden Cottage

Dr. Swan mentioned the organization called EWG, which stands for Environmental Working Group. The test and rate fruits, vegetables, and many personal products , such as makeup for harmful chemicals. I’m very conscious of what I put on my skin and EWG is helpful in making better choices. I’ve also learned to make some of my makeup at home. Nothing is 100% safe or perfect but our bodies have an amazing ability to take care of themselves if we do our best to support them.

Thomas M Leahy

​@My Cozy Garden Cottage I've wondered if there has been any attention paid to this new makeup practice of using air brush technology that has gotten so popular. What kind of substances are used with these airbrush applicators, and what are the effects of inhaling all of these products into our lungs. Any thought being given to unknown and possibly unsafe substances being breathed into our lungs. Are the particle sizes small enough to be taken into our bloodstream? Is this going to wind up being called "Brown Lung" just like coal dust caused black lung? What effects may be possible for makeup artists, beauty salon workers, people exposed to these airborne particles for extended periods every day? What are the particle sizes that are being inhaled, and how is this different, better or worse, than the usual particles inhaled everyday in our smoggy environs. How much of this "stuff" is inhaled every day. Will facemasks protect us from these airborne pollutants? Just what is in these substances, will they cause irritation, cause inflammation, obstruct our breathing capabilities from daily use?
