ZoeHeartsMikax Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 OK, listening to it now on itunes and he does it 6 times.. 1:01 to 1:02 , 1:10 to 1:11, 2:06 to 2:07, 2:15 to 2:16, 2:39 to 2:40, 2:47 to 2:48 it's a really quiet second "don't stay" after the long dooon't staaaaay, but it is very easy to hear if you listen, and it is worth the neck strain Ohh i heard it!

chalva7 Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 I think " One Foot Boy " is also a " person " in his fantasy like Dr. John. Someone who he fears and and he tries to escape. Maybe I´m totaly wrong. But hear the same lyrics like you. I agree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racinghorse83 Posted January 18, 2010 Author Share Posted January 18, 2010 OK, that took ages. But here you go; Olivia; Hi this is Olivia I’m with Mika on take40.com Mika; Hi Olivia; How are you? Mika; Good. Are you nervous? Olivia; yes *giggles* Mika; I’m nervous. Very nervous. Hey Olivia gave me a gift, its actually quite cool *holds up rubix cube key chain* I’ve got to say Olivia; glad you like it. Um, my favorite song on the album Mika; yeah Olivia; ..is one foot boy but I want to ask you, whats it about? Mika; how do you like a song that you don’t know the meaning of? Olivia; you have a way of.. um.. covering.. of saying something in a song without quite saying what it means. Mika; that’s really cool. I like that. I take that as a massive compliment. Do you really want to know what its about if you like the song? What If I tell you what its about and it turns out you absolutely hate it? Olivia; I’ll still like it. Mika; Ok. Its about going mad. Its about .. *laughs* its about a bunch of things. And its about the.. uh.. its about seeing things. I used to see this little kind of gremlin-ly thing when I was a teenager, and I could see it, and I gave him a name, and I would talk about him. And the people in my class at school were kind of used to this idea. And I would use this imaginary thing.. And it would look like a baby in *cant hear the name* Kind of like this physcotic, fat-looking hairless and very strange creature. It just kind of causes a lot of trouble. Very much in a Roger Rabbit sort of way. And do you still like the song? Olivia; yeah Mika; Okay. its kind of about that. And you know, leave me alone, I’m happy on my own. Olivia; Ummm.. you were bullied a lot when you were in school Mika; mmhmm Olivia; do you ever get contacted by any of the people who bullied you? Mika; *smiles* yeah, yeah. Olivia; what do they say to you? Mika; you know, the truth is, not much. Because what are you going to do? Are you going to sit there and go “ha ha” .. whats the point in doing that? So, not much. So I just kind of go, you know, “hello” you know, I guess I don’t hold onto everything that has happened to me in my past. In that way, I just kind of think I don’t regret anything that’s happened to me in my life, sure some things were horrible, some things were hard, harder then others, but I’m not going to sit there and be going through it in my head the whole time. Olivia; Okay. Umm.. Mika; but do you know what, I’ve got to say, when I was younger, it was like I used to make movies in my head, and I would say the next time I see this person, next time I met this person, I would like get a exterminator and have some magic thing that would shrink them down and turn them to.. kind of, everything that they make fun of I want to turn them into. I used to have really vicious, vile dreams of things I would do to these people. But that’s really bad. I would never do that. *gazes innocently at camera* Olivia; *laughing* umm, you like the show yo gabba gabba.. Mika; Yeah! Does anybody know about Yo Gabba Gabba in Australia? Olivia; yeah Mika; really? Olivia; me and my friend watch it Mika; *cracks up laughing* yeah, that’s it, all of Australia, you and your best friend watch yo gabba gabba Olivia; Well, we’re obsessed with it! Mika; you know what that is? That is officially making that TV show a cult in this country. Olivia; yeah.. I know Mika; *giggles* the cult of gabba gabba. I’d love to go it. It’s a childrens TV show. But its completely insane. Beck to MGMT and all these acts, they go and perform on it, right. Its really.. its really quite amazing to watch. I’d love to go on it. Things to look forward to in my old age. Olivia; *laughs* ummm, do you ever read the mika fan club board? Mika; umm, the Mika.. fan club forum? I, I don’t, sometimes, I mean sometimes I look at the subjects and stuff like that, and look through the general activity but I don’t read threads. No. Olivia; Okay Mika; I don’t think its good to read the threads. Do you? Olivia; Um, no Mika; *eyeing her* what are you writing on there? Olivia; nothing! Mika; *giggles, looks at the camera, looks back at Olivia* Have you run out of questions? Olivia; No! Mika; Look, see, shes concealing her list, trying to be really professional about it but I think she just forgot. *mocks Olivia looking at her list* Olivia *giggling* Um, I have one more question, how did you get the scar above you’re eye? Mika; This scar? Umm.. ahhh… in a.. accident. When I was.. early teenager, I think . around then. Yeah. Olivia; cool. Mika; it involved.. yoghurt. And too much alcohol. Olivia; *giggling again* Mika; and a car. Olivia; Okay Mika; will that do? Olivia; Sure Mika; kind of like one foot boy, doesn’t really make sense, does it. Hmm, it was nice to meet you Olivia; nice to meet you too *Shake hands* Mika; *laughing again* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovelovemika! Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 So you know the part, towards the end of the song, during the chorus when he's like "STAAAAAAAY!", all falsetto and Mika-y:pinkbow: (it happens a few times)? He says something with it, like after it! WHAT IS IT?! I honestly think I've played that part around 700 times, and I can't figure out what the hell he's saying! I was thinking it might be something like "STAAAAAY...think your lost in me..." or something, but I'm probably wrong. Does anyone know?! Please tell me.
