Tobacco Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When you're twisting on your hair it's like your freeing self
Gimme one more chance to be someone else
Eruption, eruption
Lick that popsicle
Like a motherfuckin baby motherfuckin would
It's a nice fuckin day and i'm feelin fuckin good
Twist it like a pigtail
I can make your heart fail
Gonna get my hair cut at the end of the summer
Twist it like a pigtail
I can make your heart fail
Twist it like a pigtail
I can make your heart fail
Gonna get my hair cut at the end of the summer
Twist it like a pigtail
I can make your heart fail
Twist it like a pigtail
I can make your heart fail
Gonna get my hair cut at the end of the summer
Twist it like a pigtail
I can make your heart fail
You can brush it til the motherfucker starts to purr
And in six more months you can be like her
Eruption, eruption
You're face don't exist
Like a motherfuckin shadow of a motherfuckin wish
And I always hoped it would be like this
Eruption, eruption
Twist it like a pigtail
I can make your heart fail
Gonna get my hair cut at the end of the summer
Twist it like a pigtail
I can make your heart fail
Twist it like a pigtail
I can make your heart fail
Gonna get my hair cut at the end of the summer
Twist it like a pigtail
I can make your heart fail
Twist it like a pigtail
I can make your heart fail
Gonna get my hair cut at the end of the summer
Twist it like a pigtail
I can make your heart fail
Twist it like a pigtail
I can make your heart fail
Gonna get my hair cut at the end of the summer
Twist it like a pigtail
I can make your heart fail
Can't be myself
When you're twisting on your hair it's like your freeing self
Gimme one more chance to be someone else
Eruption, eruption
Lick that popsicle
Like a motherfuckin baby motherfuckin would
It's a nice fuckin day and i'm feelin fuckin good
Eruption, eruption
You can brush it til the motherfucker starts to purr
And in six more months you can be like her
Eruption, eruption
You're face don't exist
Like a motherfuckin shadow of a motherfuckin wish
And I always hoped it would be like this
Eruption, eruption
The lyrics to Tobacco's song "Eruption" seem to revolve around themes of self-expression, identity, and the desire for change. The song begins with the singer feeling unable to be themselves when someone else is constantly twisting their hair, suggesting that this person's presence inhibits their true self. They yearn for an opportunity to become someone else, perhaps indicating their dissatisfaction with their current identity or circumstances. The repeated refrain of "eruption" suggests a longing for a release or transformation.
The second verse introduces the imagery of licking a popsicle, which can be seen as a metaphor for indulging in simple pleasures and enjoying life. The singer describes feeling good on a nice day and likens themselves to a baby enjoying the popsicle. This emphasis on pleasure and positivity contrasts with the previous verses, further emphasizing the desire for change and a different sense of self.
The lyrics then focus on twisting hair like a pigtail, suggesting a playful and somewhat rebellious act. The repeated line about making someone's heart fail could be interpreted as the singer's intention to shake up someone's expectations or perceptions. The mention of getting a haircut at the end of the summer adds to the theme of change and reinvention.
The song continues with the idea of brushing hair until it purrs, which can be seen as grooming and caring for oneself. This action is associated with the possibility of becoming like someone else within six months. The final verse speaks of a face that doesn't exist but is a mere shadow of a wish. This could mean that the singer's desired identity or image is elusive or unattainable. However, they express a hope or acceptance that things will turn out as they envisioned.
Overall, "Eruption" explores the desire to break free from constraints, seek personal transformation, and find one's true self amidst external influences.

Lick that popsicle

You're face don't exist
Your face lacks presence or significance
Like a motherfuckin shadow of a motherfuckin wish
It is a mere illusion or dream-like representation
And I always hoped it would be like this
I have longed for this exact situation

Damn, this track is dirtier than licking that goopy sticky stuff in the bottom of your car's cup holder.

someone with bloodshart in their name told you to clean your car. That means you need to clean your car. It's like a junkie telling you to get out of their house
