me wondering how much longer I would have taken to realise “mechanical hands” meant the hands of a clock if this video didn’t have a clock in the background
Now. Now it has become a meme. One decade and a half after it began existing had it finally become a meme. It just shows that no matter how old something can be, it can easily be memed. It just has to be noticed first.
It took me a while to realize that there are two characters talking to each other in first chunk of the song. One is an arrogant human (higher pitched voice) and the other is Time (lower pitched voice). Both declare themselves to be the ruler of everything at the start of the song, but then Time puts the human's ego in check. After that, the fast voice gives a word of wisdom not to freak out about the passage of time and just enjoy being part of a great never-ending cycle.
Man after realizing that he's nothing acts like he understands, "I've been living a lie" trying to act self-aware then time tells him many other people have been "aware" and their objective to find meaning in life is Obscene Then some third party affiliated with time explains further why do you know what happens when you die (Do you hear the Clock stop when you reach the end) Then Ends off by telling the human when you pretend that you somehow understand it all you resemble a fool but he doesn't blame you for that because you're Simply human there's no way you could understand how small you are So give up the act don't act like your high and mighty don't act like you know your place you're ignorant understand that fact and live your life
Tally Hall has some very profound lyrics. Criminally underrated. If you want a song with deep lyrics like this, "Never Meant to Know" is a good listen.
"Wait a second, you're telling ME that this song can fuel existential dread AND be a bop at the same time, yeah right, sure, next you'll tell me that you like how i dance, i've got zirconium pants (consequential enough to slip you into a trance)"
I just realized that time is the "Ruler" of everything in two ways; not only does it have control and power over our lives, but it's also a 'ruler,' used measure 'everything' in relation to the start of the universe
i just discovered this song recently due to memes, and i need to make sure i'm not overthinking stuff, is 0:57 to 1:38 a conversation? like, between the high voice and the low voice
@@vulpeslyrics thought it was the big hand of the clock talking to the small hand of the clock or at least, a person playing the role of the big hand and another the role of the small hand, since the big hand always runs ahead of the small hand so it has already experienced what the small hand is going to experience ie. older version of self talking to younger version.
"Wait a second, you're telling ME that this song can fuel existential dread AND be a bop at the same time, yeah right, sure, next you'll tell me that you like how i dance, i've got zirconium pants (consequential enough to slip you into a trance)"
its kinda sad to realize time controls everything. It is our worst enemy. Think about any problem in your life and 99% of the time its that you dont heave enough time or its taking too much time too happen
its why we should live our lives best we can, why waste our (heheh) time, trying to stop or slow, or mess with time, when we can enjoy what we have, and who we have around us right? just enjoy our lives best as possible, give up on trying to make things never end, and move on from the things that harm us or put us down, and just smile, and enjoy the little and big things we have in life. we all are going to die one day...and sure...we may never do everything we want to in life, or feel we're going to die too soon. but instead of worrying how and when it will end, we should enjoy what we have, and who we have in our lives, and try and show them the same way to enjoy and worry less. sure therse always things to worry about...but our end, the time it shall take, shouldn't be one of them, never worry about the inevitable, just worry about what we CAN change, and enjoy ourselves changing things for the better where we can, and even just the small moments. death is inevitable... and we mourn losses all the time...but many forget to remember the good times, and enjoy those memories... in the end, time, will change all, end all, and end itself even, all in one second if not less one day... have a good day, and enjoy your life, I hope all goes well, and even if it doesn't, remember all the good things you HAVE experienced, treasure them, for they COULD be all you have one day.
@@Laughing_Dragon I think it’s important to realize that we can realistically do something about our current time limit (aging). You might think it’s pointless to try to fight back against it, but I think that gaining any amount of time in this life is a good reason to try doing something.
@@hak-en-slash4636 my take on it is that 'Juno' is a god because Juno is the name of a good in Roman mythology and as powerful and as otherworldly and above humanity as a god is, 'Juno' was met with time, and despite their power, despite how grand a god is. It still fades away just the same with time. Just like stars, galaxies, no matter how grand. It fades away upon the ticking of a clock. as powerful as 'Juno' was, they've been had by Time, the ruler of everything. Which drove them mad.
@@wad1378i mean Juno is the god of the sun in the Roman mythology but thats the only thing juno shares with the god as this juno is just a guy who pissed off the sun so the sun called up time to put juno in his place

I take the mic. *And the familiar ticking comes...*

@@holystonks Well I developed it and it turned into something entirely new but the idea of the character is the same, so now I just need to write. I have a pretty clear image
I love how the songs 'ends' because even if the song ended, the ticking is still there, giving the feeling that no matter what happens, you may die, but time will still keep going, because time *is* the ruler of everything, and we can't change that.
Its wierd to think about how i discovered this song from a random shitpost and it ended up changing my life. Never once has a song been so goofy and lighthearted and yet also affect me this much, its crazy
This song is so incredibly intriguing to me, I could listen to it over and over again and still don't understand what's even going on. I don't really comprehend what this song is about but I still feel like it speaks to me
Don’t know if anyone will see this since I’m just finding memes of it but my take on the song is that it could be viewed from 2 perspectives. The first being the perspective of being a person who lives a normal life being slipped into a “trance” of materialism that makes him think that owning nice things and having a standard nice life are important things on the surface but struggles with his inner voice telling him that everything he does is completely pointless because of the never ending march of time and it slowly eats away at him as he realizes how fleeting life is and that he could take on at any time. As the thought of this drives him insane, he begins to realize how unimportant his life and everything else is but also comes to think that being afraid of his life being worthless shouldn’t really bother him because it’s not like any of it concerns him personally anyways since he will die long before everything, if it ever does, stops and so he goes back living normally, presumably to go through this loop over and over in his life or perhaps it is signified that all throughout time, with sentience comes with this dilemma.
The 2nd perspective, which I believe to be around the second half of the song itself, is from the perspective of time itself being personified announcing it’s awareness as its ruler of everything because it has seen everything rise and fall. Since nothing can outlive time because nothing can be without time having started, I think it becomes a lot more complex and is aware that it’s existence alone being unstoppable is what makes it the ruler of everything. Near the end of the song after the lyrics stop, you can hear a sight rewind “ahhh” sound which I believe to be time “restarting” itself for lack of a better term. As in everything just happening again just as it once did all within times grasp, therein which the first part of the song will once again continue to repeat all throughout time.
BRUH I DIDN'T KNOW THE MECHANICAL HANDS PART WAS A SONG LYRIC I JUST SAW SOMEONE POST THAT PART OF THE SONG ON TUMBLR A FEW YEARS AGO AND I THOUGHT THEY WERE JUST MEMEING!!!!!
I put the lyrics through google translate and made this: Juno was furious when she realized she had been deceived Then he shot the sun with a gun I shot the sun with a gun He pulled one of his cunning friends From the bath or from the ghetto In the village or at school Even in the waves above the sun The end of every moment is the beginning of another Understanding mechanical weapons Everything is rules (Ah) Everything is rules (Ah) In the end, I am everyone's teacher Do you like the way you dance? I wore zircon pants A great thing that makes you ecstatic. Do you like your walk? Do you like what I say? Do you want my face black? I have a beautiful wife and a stable career. He accuses me of superstition. Exercise on the wall If this glass were clearer, I'd be high right now I saw you lying on the edge of the mountain He's watching the birds (Sounds to kill) I'm you, I know you, your face is deceiving You know you'd cry for me, so am I My existence is a lie, a twisted plan The crime, the monster, the target, the pollution Yes, no, yes Do you hear strange noises? "Oh my god, we gotta get out of here or somewhere else Words for sale, stories to tell Another clock to ring the bell" Do you think the clock will stop when it reaches the end? You don't know, it doesn't matter, if you understand, you will. But if you try to understand I'm an idiot, you're just a man So give in and smile Do you listen to jokes? "Oh my god, we gotta get out of here or somewhere else Words for sale, stories to tell Another clock to ring the bell" Do you think the clock will stop when it reaches the end? No, you know it won't end, if you can understand it, you will. But if you try to understand I'm just a man and you're a fool So give up and smile Learn the machine hand Everything's rules (Ah) Everything's rules (Ah) I'm the master of everything Finally Glide without looking down I flew like a space dragon Rub my face in the sky Oh, no, no, oh, yes
I made it worse: When Juno realized she had been tricked, she went berserk. Then she shot the sun with a gun. I shot the sun with a gun. She brought some of her talented friends with her. In the bathroom or in bed In the city or at school Even in the waves above the sun The end of every moment is the beginning of another moment. Knowing mechanical weapons Everything is a rule (ah) Everything is a rule (ah) In the end, I am everyone's teacher. Do you like the way you dance? I wore pants with zirconia. Most of the work depends on you. Do you like your approach? Do you like what I say? Do you want to hurt my face? I have a beautiful wife and a steady job. He accused me of superstition. Work on the wall If this glass was clearer I'd be drunk right now I saw you lying on the mountain Birdwatching (dead sound) I know, you have a deceptive face You know you cry for me too My existence is a lie, a lie Crime, monster, target, pollution Yes, no, yes Did you hear anything strange? "Oh my God, we have to get out of here or we'll get out." Words to sell, stories to tell "The clock is ticking" Do you think the clock will stop when you reach the end? You don't know, it doesn't matter, if you understand, you'll understand. But if you try to understand I'm an idiot, you're just a man So give up and smile Did you hear the joke? "Oh my God, we have to get out of here or we'll get out." Words to sell, stories to tell "The clock is ticking" Do you think the clock will stop when you reach the end? No, you know there's no end, if you can understand and comprehend. But if you try to understand I'm just a man and you're an idiot So give up and smile Learn how to use mechanical weapons Rules for everything (ah) Rules for everything (ah) I'm the master of everything Finally Slide without looking down I fly like a dragon in the air Look at the sky Oh, no, no, oh, yes
@@ShirubaGin I see it as being time talking to a figurative humanity. It mentions how we’ll never escape death and how dumb our material possessions are since they’ll never make us happy
Someone already made an analogy about this song. The "ruler of everything" AKA juno, is someone who's egocentric and selfish (ill use a he/him pronouns). The person that pokes fun off juno is actually the concept of time, who belittle and mock juno to the point juno has to admit that he is not powerful, he isnt relevant, hes someone insecure who steps on people to make himself feel better, hes just someone who claimed to be the "ruler of everything". The lines "zirconium pants, consequential enough to slip you into a trance" zirconium is used commonly to make fake diamond. Diamond is a form of status in our world, but people make fake diamonds out of zirconium. This represents how juno tries to make himself look like a diamond, but in reality, hes a zirconium. The line "consequential enough to slip you into a trance" has a double meaning. 1. It represents people that worship juno, and 2. It represents people that fell for juno's Façade. Throughout the first bit of the song, juno kept saying "do you like how i ___" which are common things that ordinary people do. You wouldn't say this unless you are so insecure about yourself, you try your hardest to point out every little thing about yourself to others. And when juno stated "i have a wonderful wife and i have a powerful job" hes bragging about his accomplishments, and only seeing his wife as a trophy and not a human being. There are something sid like to point out, but im just too lazy.
Heres my meaning for the song: It about how we have absolutely no control over time while also saying how time is a facade we made up to try and explain things
You should listen to It's Gonna Get Weird by Lemon Demon, which is both literally a rejected bill cipher villain song and also by a band that is in general very similar to Tally Hall
When you get old you have a hard time trying to figure out what time it actually is. But then again you can figure it out one way or another by those magical hands
I feel like this is someone having an internal conflict with themselves, considering how the deeper voice tries to shut down everything the regular voice is saying.

i love the way the clock is shown to skip rigjt back to 8, it makes it feel like we're stuck in a loop which is very fitting for this particular song
I bet this is how my english teacher interprets videos
Technically, we do live in a loop.. It is like if we evolve while still tripping on the same rocks
And then 8 flipped sideways
"rigjt"

You understand mechanical hands are ruler of everything in the ends?
It took me a while to realize that there are two characters talking to each other in first chunk of the song.

After that, the fast voice gives a word of wisdom not to freak out about the passage of time and just enjoy being part of a great never-ending cycle.
Yeah that was a mind blowing realizasion. There is an entire video about that theory.
Personally I think its a Conversatoon between Mankind and Time itself as the human voice changes each time
Man after realizing that he's nothing acts like he understands,
"I've been living a lie" trying to act self-aware then time tells him many other people have been "aware" and their objective to find meaning in life is Obscene
Then some third party affiliated with time explains further why
do you know what happens when you die
(Do you hear the Clock stop when you reach the end)
Then Ends off by telling the human when you pretend that you somehow understand it all you resemble a fool but he doesn't blame you for that because you're Simply human there's no way you could understand how small you are
So give up the act don't act like your high and mighty don't act like you know your place you're ignorant understand that fact and live your life

@@raydo6274 lol sure. For a sneak peek it's about an angel called tragedy that rules over the Universe.
I love how the songs 'ends' because even if the song ended, the ticking is still there, giving the feeling that no matter what happens, you may die, but time will still keep going, because time *is* the ruler of everything, and we can't change that.
This had no business slapping this hard
This songs "trinity"
Time
Insanity
Humanity
i feel like the ruler of everything when i successfully sing the fast part at 1:48
"Comprehend if you can, but when you try to pretend to understand you resemble a fool although your only man so give it up and smile"
This song gives me Nyarlathotep vibes. A cosmic being with infinite power manipulating humanity and laughing as it all comes crashing down.
This could unironically be a perfect name for a main villain jojo stand
Oh yeah...
We already have enough time altering villan stands we don’t need another
Diavolo
It would probably cause time to loop
*You can make Polnareff climb stairs for all eternity*
@@beywheelzhater8930 lol
Is it just me, or does this remind you of Don't Hug Me I'm Scared?
It's reminds me of exactly that lmao
Oh my god it does!!
It does remind me of DHMIS
DHMIS reminds me of Tally Hall
best song ever now in lyric form?!?!?!?!
Its wierd to think about how i discovered this song from a random shitpost and it ended up changing my life. Never once has a song been so goofy and lighthearted and yet also affect me this much, its crazy
This resembles how time is neverending, meaning we can go on and on forever and ever without no end. You keep living a same life over and over
This song is so incredibly intriguing to me, I could listen to it over and over again and still don't understand what's even going on. I don't really comprehend what this song is about but I still feel like it speaks to me
Don’t know if anyone will see this since I’m just finding memes of it but my take on the song is that it could be viewed from 2 perspectives. The first being the perspective of being a person who lives a normal life being slipped into a “trance” of materialism that makes him think that owning nice things and having a standard nice life are important things on the surface but struggles with his inner voice telling him that everything he does is completely pointless because of the never ending march of time and it slowly eats away at him as he realizes how fleeting life is and that he could take on at any time. As the thought of this drives him insane, he begins to realize how unimportant his life and everything else is but also comes to think that being afraid of his life being worthless shouldn’t really bother him because it’s not like any of it concerns him personally anyways since he will die long before everything, if it ever does, stops and so he goes back living normally, presumably to go through this loop over and over in his life or perhaps it is signified that all throughout time, with sentience comes with this dilemma.
The 2nd perspective, which I believe to be around the second half of the song itself, is from the perspective of time itself being personified announcing it’s awareness as its ruler of everything because it has seen everything rise and fall. Since nothing can outlive time because nothing can be without time having started, I think it becomes a lot more complex and is aware that it’s existence alone being unstoppable is what makes it the ruler of everything. Near the end of the song after the lyrics stop, you can hear a sight rewind “ahhh” sound which I believe to be time “restarting” itself for lack of a better term. As in everything just happening again just as it once did all within times grasp, therein which the first part of the song will once again continue to repeat all throughout time.
BRUH I DIDN'T KNOW THE MECHANICAL HANDS PART WAS A SONG LYRIC I JUST SAW SOMEONE POST THAT PART OF THE SONG ON TUMBLR A FEW YEARS AGO AND I THOUGHT THEY WERE JUST MEMEING!!!!!
The hands of time control all
Comments are back! I thought they were gone for a bit
I love coming back to enjoy this song. And thanks again for the lyrics
Thank you, vulpes_iridis, very cool!
“Like a bumbling dragon I fly, scraping my face on the sky” I love this line ❤
I'll donate my liver, lungs, kidney, and my heart just for the band to reunite.
0:52 i can't be the only one that thinks this sounds exactly like Jerma985

Any specific clip?

Feels very The Mind Electric.
That’s not for nothing; the guy behind Miracle Musical is in Tally Hall.
I was genuinely thinking about that and then I immediately found your comment
I wonder what a Stand based off this song would be like? I mean we've already got a lot of time manipulating stands
It would wear zirconium pants
@@n00dlesfr86 consequential enough to send the target into a trance
It'd be the opposite of Made In Heaven, accelerating time only for living things, kind of a universal Grateful Dead.
@@variastudios301 would people like how he would talk?
@@8bits838 Would people like how he'd walk?
I was told about this song by my grandfather, who knew he has such great taste in music
I put the lyrics through google translate and made this:
Juno was furious when she realized she had been deceived
Then he shot the sun with a gun
I shot the sun with a gun
He pulled one of his cunning friends
From the bath or from the ghetto
In the village or at school
Even in the waves above the sun
The end of every moment is the beginning of another
Understanding mechanical weapons
Everything is rules (Ah)
Everything is rules (Ah)
In the end, I am everyone's teacher
Do you like the way you dance? I wore zircon pants
A great thing that makes you ecstatic.
Do you like your walk? Do you like what I say?
Do you want my face black?
I have a beautiful wife and a stable career.
He accuses me of superstition.
Exercise on the wall
If this glass were clearer, I'd be high right now
I saw you lying on the edge of the mountain
He's watching the birds (Sounds to kill)
I'm you, I know you, your face is deceiving
You know you'd cry for me, so am I
My existence is a lie, a twisted plan
The crime, the monster, the target, the pollution
Yes, no, yes
Do you hear strange noises?
"Oh my god, we gotta get out of here or somewhere else
Words for sale, stories to tell
Another clock to ring the bell"
Do you think the clock will stop when it reaches the end?
You don't know, it doesn't matter, if you understand, you will.
But if you try to understand
I'm an idiot, you're just a man
So give in and smile
Do you listen to jokes?
"Oh my god, we gotta get out of here or somewhere else
Words for sale, stories to tell
Another clock to ring the bell"
Do you think the clock will stop when it reaches the end?
No, you know it won't end, if you can understand it, you will.
But if you try to understand
I'm just a man and you're a fool
So give up and smile
Learn the machine hand
Everything's rules (Ah)
Everything's rules (Ah)
I'm the master of everything
Finally
Glide without looking down
I flew like a space dragon
Rub my face in the sky
Oh, no, no, oh, yes
I made it worse:
When Juno realized she had been tricked, she went berserk.
Then she shot the sun with a gun.
I shot the sun with a gun.
She brought some of her talented friends with her.
In the bathroom or in bed
In the city or at school
Even in the waves above the sun
The end of every moment is the beginning of another moment.
Knowing mechanical weapons
Everything is a rule (ah)
Everything is a rule (ah)
In the end, I am everyone's teacher.
Do you like the way you dance? I wore pants with zirconia.
Most of the work depends on you.
Do you like your approach? Do you like what I say?
Do you want to hurt my face?
I have a beautiful wife and a steady job.
He accused me of superstition.
Work on the wall
If this glass was clearer I'd be drunk right now
I saw you lying on the mountain
Birdwatching (dead sound)
I know, you have a deceptive face
You know you cry for me too
My existence is a lie, a lie
Crime, monster, target, pollution
Yes, no, yes
Did you hear anything strange?
"Oh my God, we have to get out of here or we'll get out."
Words to sell, stories to tell
"The clock is ticking"
Do you think the clock will stop when you reach the end?
You don't know, it doesn't matter, if you understand, you'll understand.
But if you try to understand
I'm an idiot, you're just a man
So give up and smile
Did you hear the joke?
"Oh my God, we have to get out of here or we'll get out."

No, you know there's no end, if you can understand and comprehend.

So give up and smile
Learn how to use mechanical weapons
Rules for everything (ah)
Rules for everything (ah)
I'm the master of everything
Finally
Slide without looking down
I fly like a dragon in the air
Look at the sky
Oh, no, no, oh, yes
ruler of everything but tally hall was on crack:
It's such a crime that the excerpt from the meme cuts out right before the actual best part.
i just realized that this song is about how time rules everything
This is more of a argument than a song.
Tally hall: what is the music genre? Never heard of it.
Fabloo
Okay at first I thought they said "He shot at his son with a gun."
So that's the only reason why I'm here
This isn’t a song about time btw, it’s just a dude being berated by some deep voiced nihilist.
I feel like “mechanical hands” is pretty on-the-nose with the time metaphor
This is just drugs on the hall of fame
@@wh5545 as an abstract concept or as an socially constructed concept(the clock)? Or both?
@@ShirubaGin I see it as being time talking to a figurative humanity. It mentions how we’ll never escape death and how dumb our material possessions are since they’ll never make us happy
This is a true banger, this song gives me a lot of inspiration to things
You make really good lyric videos, you’ve earned a subscirber
I am literally obsessed with this song that ive learnt to keep up with the pace of the entire video and leatn all the lyrics by heart 😅
i love tally hall so much. this song and Variations on a Cloud are my favorite songs.
Someone already made an analogy about this song. The "ruler of everything" AKA juno, is someone who's egocentric and selfish (ill use a he/him pronouns). The person that pokes fun off juno is actually the concept of time, who belittle and mock juno to the point juno has to admit that he is not powerful, he isnt relevant, hes someone insecure who steps on people to make himself feel better, hes just someone who claimed to be the "ruler of everything". The lines "zirconium pants, consequential enough to slip you into a trance" zirconium is used commonly to make fake diamond. Diamond is a form of status in our world, but people make fake diamonds out of zirconium. This represents how juno tries to make himself look like a diamond, but in reality, hes a zirconium. The line "consequential enough to slip you into a trance" has a double meaning. 1. It represents people that worship juno, and 2. It represents people that fell for juno's Façade. Throughout the first bit of the song, juno kept saying "do you like how i ___" which are common things that ordinary people do. You wouldn't say this unless you are so insecure about yourself, you try your hardest to point out every little thing about yourself to others. And when juno stated "i have a wonderful wife and i have a powerful job" hes bragging about his accomplishments, and only seeing his wife as a trophy and not a human being. There are something sid like to point out, but im just too lazy.
If you can actually repeat everything here 2:10-2:25 at x2 speed I will actually give you all my savings
Pay up buddy
I did it and I don’t need your money since when I did it I had a stroke
Y’all bullshitin, listen to it at 2x speed. Impossible
@@andromeda3113 Someone doesn't get the joke

Anyone know any songs that sound like this part? 0:28 it’s been stuck in my head but I can’t find any songs like it.
i don’t know any individual songs, but the soundtrack for the movie coraline has that sort of vibe to it
The song about the river from frozen resembles that walking of notes
Reminds me of toward the sun by Rihanna tbh
@@lordglitch4266 same rhythm but different sound, but I see what you mean!
In the land of gray and pink that album sounds like it
I like how the little tinks at the end of the song reminds me of the clock's per second hand
The sun: did you just shot at me? Did you just SHOT, AT, ME????
I've seen the ballad of hamantha, I know that's not gonna go well....
*Charges Giga Laser*
Yep. I sure did :>
Juno was mad at time, The sun is how man understands time. It's pretty reasonable to shoot at time...
I like how In the song you can hear the beat reverse which fits with the clock going back to eight making it feel like a time loop
I turned it to 2x speed and the “flibbity jibber jabber” part- I CANT EVEN UNDERSTAND WHAT HES SAYING 💀💀
Heres my meaning for the song: It about how we have absolutely no control over time while also saying how time is a facade we made up to try and explain things
All of my favorite songs get flooded by memes
amazing
for me it's vice versa

If Bill Cipher had a villain song, this would be it.
He had sunny day
You should listen to It's Gonna Get Weird by Lemon Demon, which is both literally a rejected bill cipher villain song and also by a band that is in general very similar to Tally Hall
1:48 is when the fast part begins but I’m putting up a comment because I keep messing up at 1:58 so I can learn that part
Same lmao

*Do you like how I dance I've got Zirconium pants :D*
I laugh so hard when he says this its so silly
Sounds like the jackbox trivia announcer
I like how the start and end melody is literally a ticking of the clock
tally hall fans praying to a clock (it’s the ruler of everything):
this comes first before the official music video when you search "ruler of everything" (at least for me)
encapsulates how i feel about life.
When you get old you have a hard time trying to figure out what time it actually is. But then again you can figure it out one way or another by those magical hands
My dollar general was playing this and I was soooo happy😊😊
I feel like this is someone having an internal conflict with themselves, considering how the deeper voice tries to shut down everything the regular voice is saying.
its a song about time and how time is talking to juno how he needs to understand he is NOT the ruler of everything
