Zodiac Sign
Imperial Drag Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can't make decisions.
Not unless some intervention
Pushes me around.
You move much like a go-go dancer.
Scorpio or maybe Cancer.
Either of the two will do for now.

The time and place where you were born.
I know I click with a tail or a horn.
I'm unoriginal, it's fine.
I want to know about your zodiac sign.

Shallow hallmark greetings.
From Ouija boards and daily beatings rule my hours.
(So do those fabulous crystal powers.)
When Jean Dixon summons me,
I hang on every word she puts my life in Tina Turner overdrive
With that you say I've lost my mind.

Oh - The seventh house is rising fast.
I'm a natural with a horse or a a rat.
I'm unoriginal, it's fine.
I think I love you and your zodiac sign.

Oh - Why are you leaving for the door?
Maybe my shadow was exposing my horns.
I'm unoriginal, it's fine.




I want to know about your zodiac sign.
I've got a boner for your zodiac sign.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Imperial Drag's "Zodiac Sign" center around the singer's obsession with zodiac signs and how they influence his relationships. The first two lines "I can't make decisions. Not unless some intervention / Pushes me around" suggests that the singer struggles with making decisions on his own and relies on outside forces to guide him. He then describes the person he's interested in, saying "You move much like a go-go dancer. / Scorpio or maybe Cancer. / Either of the two will do for now." This shows that he is more interested in the person's zodiac sign than their actual personality or interests.


The chorus reveals the extent of the singer's obsession with zodiac signs, as he sings about wanting to know more about his crush's sign: "I'm unoriginal, it's fine. / I want to know about your zodiac sign." He then references horoscopes and other spiritual practices, saying that they rule his hours and that he hangs on every word from Jean Dixon. The line "puts my life in Tina Turner overdrive" suggests that the singer feels like he's living his life to the fullest when he reads these horoscopes.


The second verse continues with this theme of zodiac signs and the occult, mentioning Ouija boards and "fabulous crystal powers." The singer then reveals that they believe they are compatible with their crush based on their zodiac sign, saying "I know I click with a tail or a horn." The final lines of the song are somewhat humorous as he sings "I've got a boner for your zodiac sign," which emphasizes how much he is attracted to their sign rather than anything else about them.
