Society
Strikniën D.C. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And they always looked so purebred staring through the seams
I become a constant gazer of this beauty scene
And I had to meet them all because they looked so clean
To this distant teen
Something in the genes
High society, that's the life for me
All the animals on this earth have a pedigree
And I know that somewhere out there, there is one for me
Unmatched, with sparkling beauty
Such a sight to see
What a well-made, dazzling creature introducing me to her family
Oh, wouldn't you agree?
Yes, you would!
High society, take my hand
That's the life for me
High society, I'll lead you there
That's the world for me
High society, that's the life for me
High society, that's the world for me
High society, I know the life for me's in high society
You can't keep me away from high society
You know you can't shut me out
High Society
High society, that's the life for me
High society, that's the world for me
High society, spinning round and round
That's the life for me, for me, for me, for me
Ah, high society
Ah, tea in the afternoon
That's what I want to be
The lyrics in "Society" by Strikniën D.C. express the desire for the lifestyle of high society. The singer remembers seeing ladies in magazines who looked "purebred" and stared through the seams. This led them to become a "constant gazer" of the beauty scene, wanting to meet these women because they looked so clean. Something in the genes drove this desire, and the singer imagines a life of being part of high society, with its pedigree and sparkling beauty. The desire is so strong that the singer cannot be kept away from high society.
The lyrics are both critical and satirical in nature, commenting on the shallowness of the high society lifestyle. The singer is drawn to the idea of being part of this elite group, but it is clear that their admiration is based purely on looks and status, without regard for the actual people involved or the impact of their actions.
The repeated chorus of "High society, that's the life for me" emphasizes the singer's fixation on this lifestyle while also highlighting the absurdity of it all. The song is a critique of societal values that prioritize wealth, status, and appearance over genuine human connection and compassion.
