Seashore
Regrettes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Hey I've got news, I'm not a little girl
And no, I won't give you a little twirl
You're talkin' to me like I'm sad
Hey I've got news, I'm not doin' too bad
Even though sometimes I might get real mad
You're talkin' to me like a child
And my legs keep gettin' longer
I'm like nobody else, so you can just go fuck yourself
I do a lot of stupid stuff but don't act like you're so tough
You're talkin' to me like I'm dumb
Well I've got news, I've got a lot to say
There's nothing you can do to take that away
You're talkin' to me like I'm hurt
Well at least I'm not six feet in the dirt
And I'll still kick your ass even in my skirt
You're talkin' to me like a child
But I'm not a helpless baby
Not waitin' on you to come save me
I'm like nobody else, so you can just go fuck yourself
I do a lot of stupid stuff but don't act like you're so tough
Fight fire with fire and you'll get burned
Hey I think right about now is your turn
Earplugs won't save you anymore
They'll leave you washed up on the seashore
You're talkin' to me like a bitch
Do you ever hear the way that you speak?
Don't have to be so mean just 'cause you're weak
I'm like nobody else, so you can just go fuck yourself
I do a lot of stupid stuff but don't act like you're so tough
Fight fire with fire and you'll get burned
Hey I think right about now is your turn
Earplugs won't save you anymore
They'll leave you washed up on the seashore
"Seashore" by The Regrettes is an empowering anthem that speaks to the singer's resilience and refusal to be treated as anything less than an equal. The lyrics address the condescending and dismissive manner in which someone is speaking to the singer, trying to belittle her or make her feel small. However, she quickly asserts her independence and strength, making it clear that she won't be undermined or controlled.
The repeated phrase "You're talkin' to me like a child" highlights the patronizing tone of the conversation, with the singer attempting to diminish the singer's capabilities and intelligence. But she pushes back, declaring that she is not a little girl and won't be treated as such. She emphasizes her worth and agency, showing that she is capable of standing up for herself and doesn't need anyone else to save her.
The song also touches on the theme of individuality and not conforming to societal expectations. The singer asserts that she is unique and unlike anyone else, making it clear that she won't mold herself to fit someone else's standards. She refuses to be controlled or defined by others, insisting that they can "just go fuck [themselves]." The lyrics also reflect the idea of fighting fire with fire and not backing down when faced with adversity. The image of earplugs no longer saving the person, leaving them washed up on the seashore, suggests that their attempts to silence or undermine the singer will ultimately have consequences for them.
Overall, "Seashore" is a defiant and empowering song about standing up for oneself, embracing individuality, and refusing to be trapped by others' expectations or condescending treatment.

You're talkin' to me like a child
Hey I've got news, I'm not a little girl
And no I won't give you a little twirl
You're talkin' to me like I'm sad
Hey I've got news, I'm not doin' too bad
Even though sometimes I might get real mad
You're talkin' to me like a child
But my words are growin' stronger
And my legs keep gettin' longer
I'm like nobody else, so you can just go fuck yourself
I do a lot of stupid stuff but don't act like you're so tough
You're talkin' to me like I'm dumb
Well I've got news, I've got a lot to say
There's nothing you can do to take that away
You're talkin' to me like I'm hurt
At least I'm not six feet in the dirt
And I'll still kick your ass even in my skirt
You're talkin' to me like a child
But I'm not a helpless baby
Not waitin' on you to come save me

Fire fire with fire and you'll get burned
Hey I think right about now is your turn

They'll leave you washed up on the seashore
You're talkin' to me like a bitch
Do you ever hear the way that you speak?
Don't have to be so mean just 'cause you're weak
I'm like nobody else, so you can just go fuck yourself
I do a lot of stupid stuff but don't act like you're so tough
Fight fire with fire and you'll get burned
Hey I think right about now is your turn
Earplugs won't save you anymore
They'll leave you washed up on the seashore

Meggy The Eggy yea it also makes me kinda depressed for myself being the same age as she is but like shes a fucking rockstar making it big at such a young age good for her and her band mates.
@jordanscalese4060
Selinaย You can't compare yourself to others when it boils down to success, no two people have the same exact life goals. Success to Lydia might just be her relationship with her band, for instance. Some people like the concept of being a superstar, some people prefer a more quiet life. Basically, being successful to one person is just having one person to care about them, and sometimes, that person lives a more fulfilling life than the person with millions of dollars, you can't compare your success, because you ultimately have different life goals. And heck, if you want to be a rockstar, don't give up. Plenty of people didn't succeed until their early/late 30's or older. Just do what makes YOU feel successful in the moment, because you're the only one you need to impress.
