Cloverfield Secrets
T.J. Miller Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(Secrets)
Slusho was a delicious Japanese drink.
One of the most delicious ingredients requires
drilling deep into the ocean floor to get it.
This drilling is what released the monster from the crevasse.
...Crevice
(Secrets)
The thing that fell into the ocean at the end of the movie
was in fact the Tagruato satellite
But that incident has nothing to do with
the huge monster that attacked New York
I mean, it was a satellite built by a mining company
No way that'd stay in orbit
(Secrets)
Here's the thing about the flaming homeless man
Setting yourself on fire is no way to party
Eating the pizzas I just ordered for us...
Now we're partying.
Yeah, you heard it correctly; we said
"I saw it, it's a lion, it's huge"
But, the monster was not Voltron as some had speculated
It was actually Lion-O from Thundercats!
Remember that old show?
Hud was so attracted to Marlena that
he would have had sex with her...
After she exploded.
I wish I was better friends with Mike Vogel
He was on the cover of "Men's Health," people.
He should know, 'cause he was in the movie
You didn't see him much,
Cause he was the guy holding the camera
Well you all got motion sickness
But he really doesn't give a fuck
In fact that's the way he planned it,
Cause he's got a weird thing for vomitting
(Cloverfield secrets) x 3
-
In T.J. Miller's song "Cloverfield Secrets", the artist reveals his interpretation of some of the mysteries from the 2008 found footage monster film, "Cloverfield." The lyrics cryptically unveil secrets about the film, and the artist's humorous and absurd take on them.
The first verse describes how the monster was unleashed from the ocean floor by drilling that was conducted to acquire a key ingredient required for the creation of a Japanese drink, Slusho. The drilling released the creature from the crevasses, leading to the monster's deadly attacks in New York City. The second verse reveals that the thing that fell into the ocean at the end of the movie was, in fact, the Tagruato satellite, which had nothing to do with the creature's appearance. Although the satellite was created by a mining company, it was not designed to attack the city.
The chorus of the song constantly repeats the words "Cloverfield secrets" to emphasize the message of hidden information that the artist aims to convey. The third verse takes a lighter turn, where the artist jokingly suggests that setting oneself on fire is not a party trick but ordering pizza can be. The fourth verse, delivered in a rap flow, discloses that the monster was not Voltron but Lion-O, a character from the animated TV show "Thundercats." The song ends on a humorous note, with the artist expressing his envy for Mike Vogel, a lead actor in the film, who was featured on Men's Health magazine.
