Beetles
In my garden
The heat
They come out in the heat.
It's a little creepier that way.
and it hardly takes a genius to see it. i mean, how can anyone think that the word 'under' sounds like the word 'shit'? "shit my carpet" makes no sense either way.
Hahahah. I like how I'm talking to myself here.
Beetles.
In my carpet.
UNDER my feet.
They come out at night?
That last part is tricky.
IN MY CARPET.
AT MY FEET.
THEY COME OUT AT NIGHT.
Goodness.
Well, it's about beetles. In his carpet. At his feet. And they come out at night. Brilliant.
beetles, under my carpet, under my feet,
they come out in the heat
I think the misinterpretation's due to his weird accent and the way the synth sort of distorts a few of the harder consonants.
And I don't think it really means anything. It's more of the image you get than what it's supposed to represent. It's like a little mini-limerick about kids staring at bugs out of boredom and curiosity, except it's done from RDJ's slightly twisted perspective.
