FIONA APPLE

- A Mistake Lyrics

I'm gonna make a mistake-
I'm gonna do it on purpose
I'm gonna waste my time

'Cause I'm full as a tick
And I'm scratching at the surface
And what I find is mine

And when the day is done, and I look back
And the fact is I had fun, fumbling around

All the advice I shunned, and I ran
Where they told me not to run, but I sure
Had fun, so

I'm gonna f*ck it up again
I'm gonna do another detour
Unpave my path

And if you wanna make sense
Whatcha looking at me for
I'm no good at math
And when I find my way back,
The fact is I just may stay, or I may not

I've acquired quite a taste
For a well-made mistake
I wanna mistake why can't I make a mistake?

I...
I'm always doing what I think I should
Almost always doing everybody good
Why-

Do I wanna do right, of course but
Do I really wanna feel I'm forced to
Answer you, hell no

I've acquired quite a taste
For a well-made mistake, I wanna
Make a mistake, why can't I make a mistake

I...
I'm always doing what I think I should
Almost always doing everybody good
Why-

What is the meaning behind A Mistake lyrics?


When it comes to the meaning of the lyrics, Fiona Apple's 'A Mistake' is an adventurous to a certain extent and most pedantic song that musically illustrates not only the world of detours to life and mistakes as their valued teachers but also heedless joy in the unforeseen. defiance to the world’s norms and values is inevitable in this song, and it is through personal growth that one turns into their true self rather than simply through following the crowd's trends. The picturing of a mistake mostly concerns reflection, freedom, empowerment, adventure, and joy. At the same time, the song does not shy away from reiterating the importance of errors and thus the rebellion against expectations. The lyrics contain themes of rebellion and making mistakes, which may not be suitable for children under 13. The use of strong language and expressions of frustration suggest a more mature context, warranting a PG-13 rating.
