    this is genuinely one of my favorite songs of all time. the way he sings this character as this jealous man and is “smaller” and more shallow than the other man comparing himself to a fish, the music, the lyrics, everything. i always have my music on shuffle and i’ve never had a song make me this excited when it pops up

  • @justa_stranger_
    @justa_stranger_ 6 ปีที่แล้ว +451

    I love this song. It has such a lovely way of creating a character that is filled with jealousy and bitterness. I also like how he compares himself to the other man in such a shallow way that you can see that he doesn't truly love the woman; he just misses the fact she was his. Now that she's got a new man, he drinks and watches with contempt of a man who's taller than him. At least, that's how I interpret it.

      @dmwittt ปีที่แล้ว +6

      i'm really late to this but i thought it was obvious how comparing his height to the other guy means he's comparing the fact that he has what the singer doesn't. guys always say their height is not of their control and that to me implicates that the other guy has something about him the girl is naturally attracted to or that the singer is disadvantaged in some way. i think the lines "but i'll never be what she wants", "but i'm only a seven" and, "he's so much taller than i ever will be" further supports this.

    This album, and this song, are in my opinion some of Matt Maltese's best works. The lyrical genius in this song paints such a vivid picture. The double entendre of "I wish that I could fill shoes, but I'm only a seven." is one of my favorite lines, and followed by the jump in pitch for the "pour me a Guinness, she's probably screwing him now" part. It's addicting, and this song is the one I always come back to 3 years later.

    One of the most gentle and relatable songs I've ever heard. One of the songs I immerse myself in and cry to the most. The lyrics, Matt's voice, the melody, the aura of this all come together to make one of the most important pieces of music to me in this point of my life and I see other people here leaving kind words and beautiful messages and it fills my heart even more to see how many others share this experience with me, somewhere else in the world.

    Like a fish
    That's how I drink these days
    It numbs the envy
    I have
    Against your tall kind man
    He's so much taller than I ever will be
    You write me in a stranger's tone
    And bring him along to my shows
    Well, you need etiquette lessons
    And I need something in my drink
    Like a fish
    That's how I drink these days
    It numbs the envy
    I have
    Against your tall kind man
    He's so much taller than I ever will be
    I dream about you four nights a week
    Call me romantic
    I wish that I could fill his shoes
    But I'm only a 7
    Like a fish
    Pour me a Guinness man
    She's probably screwing him now
    Can make all the wisecracks in the world
    But I will never be what she wants
