All The Right Moves

I know nothing about One Republic. I've never been a fan of mainstream light rock except maybe Coldplay on occasions.


Still I'm sure that there is a lot of deep meaning behind this song.


Who am I kidding?


All The Right Moves - One Republic

All the right friends in all the right places

By the right place he means at the local Starbucks.

So yeah, we're going down

Why do I always have to do the songs with references to eating pussy?

Oh wait...

They got all the right moves in all the right faces

Oh there's something I'd like to move into this guy's fist.

And it's not my dick this time.

So yeah, we're going down

They're much like a kamikaze fighter plane in that respect.

Just paint the picture of a perfect place

Hastily done in paint for added effect.

They got it better than what anyone's told you

Damn I always knew those starving people with aids in Africa had it better than me with my seven hats and expensive laptop.

They'll be the King of Hearts, and you're the Queen of Spades

I fucking love when a song puts in a cards reference. I don't know what it's with me and cards but I just fucking love them. Also kind of helps that I can rock anyone's shit in a good game of Poker.

Then we'll fight for you like we were your soldiers

And I'll fight for her like I was a general...

Silently wondering how bad I fucked up at commanding my troops.

I know we've got it good

According to this song everyone has it good.

My friend Billy Two Fingers would like to bring up an objection but he can't as he has no pointer finger.

But they got it made

They made cupcakes for everyone. What considerate people.

And the grass is getting greener each day

Be right back. I'm gonna go and confirm this.

No it isn't.

I know things are looking up

"Holy shit what's that in the sky?"

But soon they'll take us down,

This is a figurative wrestling match of emotion with all the underlying homoerotic subtext.

before anybody's knowing our name.

Trust me if people knew my name they'd be able to hunt me down quicker than...

Something that is really fast and hunts.

Do you think I'm special?

No.

Do you think I'm nice?

Depends on your definition.

Am I bright enough to shine in your spaces?

It's been called 'The Glowstick" for a reason.

Between the noise you hear

It was a weird PFFFFFFT noise.

And the sound you like

Which for most men is the sound of moaning.

Are we just sinking in an ocean of faces?

Unlike the Ocean this line isn't actually as deep as it looks.

It can be possible that rain can fall,

HOLY SHIT REALLY!?

Only when it's over our heads

Both of them.

The sun is shining everyday, but it's far away

Thanks Captain Obvious.

Over the world is death.

Death by asphyxiation to be precise.

They said, everybody knows, everybody knows where we're going

To a gay bar. They're gonna take you to a gay bar. Gay bar? Gay bar.

It don't matter what you see.

Tell that to a blind man.

I know I could never be

A competent song writer.

Someone that'll look like you.

"Mostly cause you're a chick."

It don't matter what you say,

"One day I will become so lame that my dick will retract into myself and I WILL be a woman! Mark my words and mark them well!"

I know I could never face

His excruciating fear of walnuts.

someone that could sound like you.

He thinks her voice is kawai desu ne.

(All the right moves, hey)

We need to have the title make sense at the end of the song.

Otherwise this song wouldn't make sense.
