MR. BUNGLE
- Retrovertigo Lyrics
Before you advertise
All the fame is implied
With no fortune unseen
Sell the rights to your blight Time-machine
While I'm dulled by excess
And a cynic at best
My art imitates crime
Paid for by the allies, so invest
Now I'm finding truth is a ruin
Nauseous end that nobody is pursuing
Staring into glassy eyes
Mesmerized
There's a vintage thirst returning
But I'm sheltered by my channel-surfing
Every famine virtual
Retrovertigo
A tribute to false memories
With conviction
Cheap imitation
Is it fashion or disease?
Post-ironic
Remains a mouth to feed
Sell the rights
To your blight
And you'll eat
Now I'm finding truth is a ruin
Nauseous end that nobody is pursuing
Staring into glassy eyes
Mesmerized
See the vintage robot wearied
Then awakened by revision theories
Every famine virtual
Retrovertigo

What is the meaning behind Retrovertigo lyrics?
When we explore how the lyrics were meant to make us feel, the song Retrovertigo by Mr. Bungle explores how people become disillusioned about life through their excessive consumption of material things and their belief that art exists solely as a product. The Retrovertigo lyrics demonstrate six distinct emotional states which include anguish and contemplation and hopelessness and social criticism and actual experiences from the past. The song delivers its message through two main elements which include the danger that commercialized art presents to artistic authenticity and the resulting loss of genuine artistic expression and the listener's ability to escape reality and their actual experience and the experience of past times and their view of past eras. The lyrics contain themes of excess, cynicism, and the pursuit of truth in a disillusioned world. The references to 'nauseous end' and 'glassy eyes' indicate a level of intensity which matured themes. Young audiences will face difficulties in understanding the complex emotions and ideas which the language presents because it remains less than explicit. The terms 'famine virtual' and 'retrovertigo' introduce abstract concepts which create a potential for unsettling feelings. ✔️
