Lyric Analysis

Here are the lyrics for Placebo's Nancy Boy. I have analyzed the lyrics into what our group would like to put into our music video.

Alcoholic kind of mood
Lose my clothes, Lose my lube <---- see him drinking and cuts to an empty bottle
Cruising for a piece of fun
Looking out for number one <---- Car driving down a road looking out at the road, seeing all the people standing around
Different partner every night
So narcotic outta sight <---- See one man in bed, bed cover changes, see different people get out of the bed
What a gas
What a beautiful ass <---- Cuts to a shot of the male

And it all breaks down at the role reversal
Got the muse in my head she's universal
Spinnin' me round she's coming over me
And it all breaks down at the first rehearsal
Got the muse in my head she's universal
Spinnin' me round she's coming over me <----- The male is sitting there and a woman is dancing for him

Kind of buzz that lasts for days
Had some help from insect ways <---- There is a TV showing insects on the screen
Comes across all shy and coy
Just another nancy boy
Woman man or modern monkey
Just another happy junkie <--- Cutting between woman, man and then a monkey, moves into slow motion as they are all laughing, make up is smudged and the man looks scruffy.
Fifty pounds
Press my button
Going down <---- Shot of a lift and the man pushing the down button, and you see the women move down as the man stands there in the middle

And it all breaks down at the role reversal
Got the muse in my head she's universal
Spinnin' me round she's coming over me
And it all breaks down at the first rehearsal
Got the muse in my head she's universal
Spinnin' me round she's coming over me

Does his makeup in his room
Douse himself with cheap perfume
Eyeholes in a paper bag
Greatest lay I ever had
Kind of guy who mates for life
Gotta help him find a wife
We're a couple <---- See the man passing with his new wife, and there is another man who is standing next to him singing. Happy.
When our bodies double

And it all breaks down at the role reversal
Got the muse in my head she's universal
Spinnin' me round she's coming over me
And it all breaks down at the first rehearsal
Got the muse in my head she's universal
Spinnin' me round she's coming over me

And it all breaks down at the role reversal
Got the muse in my head she's universal
Spinnin' me round she's coming over me
And it all breaks down at the first rehearsal
Got the muse in my head she's universal
Spinnin' me round she's coming over me <----- Spinning around and they are in each other's clothes, and all the way through this final chorus they are each other but don't actually know that they are in role reversal
