Shits in Suits
Kiss Kiss Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My Mother Said you Were
A Body in The Rain
A Rotting Corpse Found in the Gallows
I Want To Take you Home
I Want to Play Dress Up
I Want to Show you Off!

I Tried Some Puppeting
I Used some Rope and String
Nothing Could Make you Dance Like
How You Used To
I Admit I Flipped out
I Tossed your Bones About
How your Soul Came Down
You Taught me, You Told me Secrets

How we're Fed Chemicals
By Diabolicals
Tiny Little Shits in Suits
Who Do not Give a Fuck
And When Our Bodies Fail
Guess Who Will have Pills to Sell

Those Tiny Little Shits in Suits
Who Do Not Give a Fuck

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Shits in Suits" by Kiss Kiss offers an interesting insight into the corrupt world we live in. The opening lines, "My Mother Said you Were a Body in The Rain, A Rotting Corpse Found in the Gallows," tell the story of a dead man who is still present among the living. This is a metaphor for how the things we create always outlive us, for better or worse. The singer of the song states, "I Want To Take you Home, I Want to Play Dress Up, I Want to Show you Off!" which is symbolic of the way we try to manipulate and control our creations, whether that be through art or technology.


The next verse of the song speaks to the frustration the singer feels when trying to manipulate their creation. "I Tried Some Puppeting, I Used some Rope and String, Nothing Could Make you Dance Like How You Used To" represents the way we try to control the art we create but fail to capture the initial magic that made it great. The lines "How we're Fed Chemicals, By Diabolicals, Tiny Little Shits in Suits Who Do not Give a Fuck" suggests that the creativity and unique expression of our art is being stifled and limited by those in positions of power who only care about their own gain. Finally, the line "And When Our Bodies Fail, Guess Who Will have Pills to Sell, Those Tiny Little Shits in Suits Who Do Not Give a Fuck" shows that the suits in charge only care about what they can gain, even if it means exploiting the health and suffering of others.

I can definitely hear it. The random screams at 0:10 remind me a lot of Benny from The Venetia Fair
