Strong & Muscled
The Ex Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
my friends called me tiny boy
and they were right
besides i was always tired
i was weak thin without strength
considered as a fake
the subject of derision
but look at me now
quick be strong and muscled
have your whole life rearranged
within a week
my muscles increased an inch
and now: strong build shoulders
powerful visible biceps
V-ending chest in the waists
and solid sturdy legs
they give me energy
my life changed quick and easy
thanks to the method
of quickened muscle-growth
'sculptured humaine'
what a pleasure developing
a muscled body
that compels respect
In the song "Strong & Muscled" by The Ex, the lyrics tell the story of a person who used to be weak and thin, and was even considered a fake and subject of ridicule. However, within a week of using a method of quickened muscle-growth called "sculptured humaine," the singer's muscles increased significantly, resulting in a strong and muscled body that compels respect. The song celebrates the transformation and the newfound energy and confidence that comes with being strong and physically fit.
The lyrics also touch on the societal standards of beauty and power that prioritize muscularity and physical strength. The singer's transformation from a weakling to a strong and muscled person is seen as the ultimate goal, and it highlights how society sets unrealistic expectations for people's bodies, leading to feelings of inadequacy and self-doubt.
Overall, "Strong & Muscled" is a commentary on the pressures and expectations placed on people to conform to narrow beauty standards, and celebrates the power and confidence that comes with physical strength and fitness.
