Fmbm Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 what's the meaing of this?There’s a one foot boy eleven stone can someone help me? It means he's one foot long (12 inches) and weighs 11 stone (1 stone = 14 pounds) which would be equal to 154 pounds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christine Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 THIS SONG. I never really knew what is was like to listen to a song and just KNOW that it was PERFECT. Well, now I do. I was put off by the intro the first listen but yeah it's pretty much perfect now. Absolutely love this song. Just Mika's voice up and down and all over the place. Amazing. Means, probably, what the freebie has appeared in an Internet "owing to" this event? North Americans can listen to it here. I don't know if anyone else can. http://www.imeem.com/mika/playlist/oa9WrhVi/the-boy-who-knew-too-much-ewcom-imeem-exclusive-premiere/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kodes100 Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 I love this song! But I don't have a clue what it is about?? Hahaha! At first I thought it was like the angel & devil on your shoulder advising you what to do. But that doesn't hoild true with all the lyrics. Then I thought it is a past lover who he is trying to get rid of & can't. But I don't think that totlaly makes sense. I will be happy when someone here comes up with a plausible & believeable meaning. Until then I love the tune & lryics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lollipop_monkey Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 it's pretty much perfect now. Absolutely love this song. Just Mika's voice up and down and all over the place. Amazing.

purplegrape Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 Alright, now that I've gushed about it a bit and listened to it multiple times I'm gonna post my interpretation -------------------- Ok, so, I am gonna guess that the One Foot Boy is his conscience (BTW, when I say 'his' I don't necessarily mean Mika, I mean the story teller.) I'll say nothing on your microphone Till you swear to take me home Makes me think something like "I won't have sex with you until I'm married" which, sticking with the teenage theme of the album, makes a bit of sense cause I think a lot of teens are unsure whether to wait or go for it. And, well, for those of you who know me you'll know what I mean when I say I am kinda thinking of 'microphone' with two meanings (AGAIN: I'm not implying anything about Mika himself!) There’s a one foot boy eleven stone He's sitting on my shoulder Makes me think conscience because your conscience is usually pretty strong and heavy and one usually tends to battle with it. I’m too scared to look away, Works too because he's afraid to go against his better judgement. He comes here almost everyday And everyday I push him off and tell him boy we’re over And this is like him wanting to do something insane and prolly not 'good' or 'right' or whatever word you want to use, as many teenagers do. As I know I want to do a lot of the time. I think MY OH MY I think my mind is gone I'm left here wondering Was I crazy all along? What do I do? Nothing left but pray Gonna shoot somebody Help me drive this craziness away I’m happy on my own is pretty much the insanity of adolescence because of the insane feelings and confusion and the plain hell just about everyone goes through. but I also think it might be about guilt (which ties in with the conscience). Like maybe he did the crazy thing he wanted to do but now he's questioning himself for doing it? What’s a matter with going places? Take that gross look off your faces Empty loving makes me seasick What you’re here for, I don’t need it Personally I think that's pretty straight foward. "Don't judge me, I'll do what I want, don't put me down, etc." AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT! Alright, yes, I'm gonna go in this direction simply because I see it. If everyone decided Mika needs an "I'm gay" song I think this is very much it. His use of the word "faces" instead of just face leads to different personalities. When you're young and unsure you'll often keep it to yourself. One personal life and one public life. One Foot Boy is again guilt or confusion. unsure as to whether or not there's something wrong with him. Empty loving makes me seasick Pretending to like women when he doesn't. I’m too scared to look away, He comes here almost everyday And everyday I push him off and tell him boy we’re over Afraid to be open about it and daily trying to build up the courage to be yourself to everyone. I think my mind is gone I'm left here wondering Was I crazy all along? What do I do? Unsure about what to do about his hidden feelings. Even doubting himself. Nothing left but pray The power religion plays in the fear of being gay. Say you like me, But not with changes? Like me for who I am! Shut up and forget it These are my faces This is who I am, get over it. All these colours That surround me All these places Only drown me Colours makes me think rainbow. You know what I mean. I'll say nothing on your microphone Well, I already said what I had to say about that And of course: Happy on my own I'm happy being myself So, wadda ya think? Personally I prefer my second interpretation, but they're both rather closly related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
