Mr. Quiche
Wildcat! Wildcat! Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is all you really want from me (and it's another lonely day)
All you really want from me (and it's another lonely day)
Is all I really want from you (and it's another day)
Get out the way, out the way, I’m a cannonball
Get out the way, out the way, out the way this time
What you want from me (cut the lock and key)
All I need (the only thing we got is to show)
What you want from me
All you need is only shaking it for me
It's all for quiche
Turn me down, turn me loud
The lyrics to Wildcat! Wildcat!'s song Mr. Quiche depict a relationship that is not able to provide what each person really wants from the other, ultimately resulting in loneliness. The first verse repeats the lines "All I really want from you (and it's another lonely day) / Is all you really want from me (and it's another lonely day)", emphasizing the lack of fulfillment in the relationship. The following lines "Get out the way, out the way, I'm a cannonball / Get out the way, out the way, out the way this time" can be interpreted as a call to action, a desire to break free from the cycle of emptiness and make a change.
The second verse introduces the idea of "quiche" as a metaphor for something desirable but unattainable - "All I need (I’m only gonna shake it for quiche) / What you want from me (cut the lock and key) / All I need (the only thing we got is to show) / What you want from me / All you need is only shaking it for me / It's all for quiche". The lyricist yearns for this elusive thing, and perhaps feels frustrated that their partner cannot provide it. The final lines "Turn me down, turn me loud" suggest that the relationship has reached a breaking point, where even negative attention is better than no attention at all.

I’ve had this song buried in my playlist from when I was 13. I am now 20 sitting on my couch reminiscing on my times in junior high. First time smoking, first girlfriend, last summer of fun and simplicity. Love it. 🙏🏻
