ELASTICA
- Line Up Lyrics / with translationsDrivel head wears her glad rags
She's got her keys, money and fags
I know that her mind is made up
To get to rocked
Drivel head needs a new man
As only a drivel head can
He's a hormonal nightmare
so beware
Drivel head knows all the stars
Loves to suck their shining guitars
They've all been right up her stairs
Do you care?
Drivel head loves the new band
Knows them like the back of her hand
You can't see the wood for the trees
On your knees
She's got her keys, money and fags
I know that her mind is made up
To get to rocked
Drivel head needs a new man
As only a drivel head can
He's a hormonal nightmare
so beware
Drivel head knows all the stars
They've all been right up her stairs
Do you care?
Drivel head loves the new band
Knows them like the back of her hand
You can't see the wood for the trees
On your knees

When we take a closer look to the meaning, Elastica's 'Line Up' is a colorful and almost psychedelic portrayal of the character with the expressive name Drivel Head, who is persistently looking for new adventures and the music scene, and by that showing the fleetingness of fame and the unsteadiness of people's love. Line up lyrics mainly show angst, empowerment, anger, freedom, and heartbreak. Nevertheless, the song points towards the necessity of change and the urge of thrill, the impermanence of bonds, deep involvement in music and celebrity culture and the dwindling of personal character and identity as cons. The lyrics make allusions to drinking ('keys, money and fags'), possible risky behavior ('get rocked'), and provocative issues ('hormonal nightmare'). By combining these things with the general atmosphere, the content is recommended PG-13 as a warning to parents.
