Impossible
Suburban Tribe Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I used to be a man of principle
Always in a hurry but yet in time
Then I met this individual
Since nothing's been in rhyme
Breast implants and bleached hair
Stilted smile, contact blue eyes
She's more than man could ask for
She's oh so natural
My girl is so impossible
She is so impossible
And not quite intellectual
My girl is so impossible
She is so impossible
She makes me feel so sexual
When she talks with her thin voice
She makes me smile
My girl has no obligations
No schedule, no meetings for the day
She's so nicely irresponsible
Laughs at everything I say
Life for her is just a game
Head in clouds, feet above the ground
Big surprises and cincidents
Happen when my girl's around
One day I asked her a question
About life and it's direction
She looked into my eyes
She answered I'm not being very nice




Oh yeah?
Let's forget it

Overall Meaning

The song "Impossible" by Suburban Tribe talks about how the singer's life has changed since meeting a particular woman. Prior to meeting her, he was a man of principles who was always busy but still managed to be on time for everything. However, this all changed when he met the woman in question. The song describes her as someone with breast implants, bleached hair, and contact blue eyes. She is always smiling in a forced way, which makes her seem unnatural, but at the same time, she is everything the singer could ever want. Despite all of these things, the singer acknowledges that she is not quite intellectual, but she makes him feel sexual when she talks with her thin voice.


The song goes on to describe how the woman has no obligations or schedules, and she is nicely irresponsible. She laughs at everything the singer says, which makes him feel like she is just playing a game. However, whenever she is around, big surprises and coincidences tend to happen.


Towards the end of the song, the singer asks the woman a question about life and its direction. Instead of answering, she tells him that he is not being very nice, and the song ends on that note. Overall, the song paints a picture of a woman who is impossible to resist but not necessarily someone who is intellectually stimulating.
