Open it Up
John S Lyrics

In the song "Open it Up," John S sings about betrayal and deception. The lyrics suggest that the person being addressed lies, fakes, cheats, and changes the rules of the game. They throw unrealistic goals into the mix and let them burst in an unsystematic way. It seems like the person is living in a world of illusion, a 'dreaming circus' fueled by parodies and an uncertain mix of tragedy and comedy. These actions may actually be a way to draw attention to oneself, to gain publicity. The plea to 'open up and make room' suggests that the singer wants to have a place in that world too. However, the song does not suggest a harmonious coexistence between the two people.

The words "magnet toss that pie in the sky" refer to throwing the impossible goal of reaching the sky, and while it may be unrealistic, it attracts attention. The phrase "fuel in the tea with parody" is an interesting way to depict the person's attempt to add humor to their life or the situation. The singer of the story, meanwhile, is trying to work their way into this person's orbit, even though the singer knows this is not a happy place. The lyrics paint a picture of a world of illusion, where people do whatever it takes to attract attention.
