Phineas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Phineas, are you sure this is safe?
Of course!
(Rollercoaster, roll, rollercoaster)
It's like a leisurely drive around downtown
But it starts with a 3-mile drop straight down
Yeah, now keep your head and hands and feet inside the ride
Permanecer sentados, por favor
Scream if you want more!
That's right!
Corkscrewin 'round the interstate
With peanut butter and rubber snakes
Clear the way, move over
Look out, Bud
Here comes the mud!
Rollercoaster, roll, rollercoaster
Look out!
Rightside up and upside down
Don't ask me to talk
Can't tell a verb from a noun
And I'm screaming like a baby
Who's afraid of a clown
Buford: I'm glad I'm wearing trousers
That are already brown!
It'll twist your melon
It'll turn your gut
Man, is this ride sweet or what?
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah
Rollercoaster
I got the poster!
(Rollercoaster, roll, rollercoaster)
(Rollercoaster, roll, rollercoaster)
(Rollercoaster, roll, rollercoaster)
(Rollercoaster, roll, rollercoaster)
Phineas's song "Rollercoaster" is a cheerful ode to the exhilarating experience of riding a rollercoaster. The lyrics start with Phineas's friend expressing doubt about the safety of the ride, but Phineas reassures him and the ride starts. The lyrics describe the ride's twists and turns, cork-screws and drops in great detail, evoking the thrill and excitement of the rollercoaster ride. The lyrics also include humorous lines from the other characters, like Buford's comment on his pants and the peanut butter and rubber snakes on the ride.
The repetition of the phrase "Rollercoaster, roll, rollercoaster" in the chorus adds to the song's energetic and repetitive nature, while also serving as a way to convey the rhythm and motion of the rollercoaster ride. The lyrics also include a Spanish phrase, "Permanecer sentados, por favor," which translates to "Stay seated, please," indicating the safety guidelines for the ride.
