Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To rest my eyes in shades of green
Under Dreaming Spires
To Itchycoo Park, that's where I've been
What did you do there? - I got high
What did you feel there? - Well I cried
It's all too beautiful, It's all too beautiful
It's all too beautiful, It's all too beautiful
I feel inclined to blow my mind
Get hung up, feed the ducks with a bun
They all come out to groove about
Be nice and have fun in the sun
I'll tell you what I'll do - What will you do?
I'd like to go there now with you
You can miss out school - Won't that be cool
Why go to learn the words of fools?
What will we do there? - We'll get high
What will we touch there? - We'll touch the sky
But why the tears there? I'll tell you why
It's all too beautiful, It's all too beautiful
It's all too beautiful, It's all too beautiful
I feel inclined to blow my mind
Get hung up, feed the ducks with a bun
They all come out to groove about
Be nice and have fun in the sun
It's all too beautiful, It's all too beautiful
It's all too beautiful, It's all too beautiful
The opening lines of J.M.Wisnik E C.Núñez's song "Bonus" depict a journey through various places, both real and imaginary. The singer moves over Bridges of Sighs and rests their eyes in shades of green, which can be interpreted as a journey through difficult situations towards a place of calm and tranquility. Under Dreaming Spires takes us to Itchycoo Park, a playful place where one can let go and get high.
The song then transitions into a conversation where the listener asks the singer about their experiences in Itchycoo Park, and the singer responds with the famous line - "It's all too beautiful". This line represents a sort of bittersweet beauty, where the joy of getting high and having fun is tempered by tears and sadness. However, the overall sentiment is that life is beautiful and worth experiencing to the fullest. The song continues with the singer wanting to take the listener to Itchycoo Park and encourages them to miss out on school and learn from life experiences instead.
Overall, the song conveys a sense of freedom, joy, and beauty in life's experiences. It suggests that life is meant to be lived fully and that even the bittersweet moments are worth experiencing. The song's strong psychedelic vibe reflects the countercultural movement of the 1960s, where getting high and breaking free from societal norms was seen as a way to experience life's fullness.
