SAVAGE GARDEN

- Santa Monica Lyrics

In Santa Monica, in the winter time,
The lazy streets so undemanding
I walk into the crowd
In Santa, Monica, you get your coffee from
The coolest places on the promenade
Where the people dress just so
Beauty so unavoidable, everywhere you turn
It's there
I sit and wonder what am
I doing here?
But on the telephone line
I am anyone
I am anything I want to be
I can be a super model or
Norman Mailer
And you wouldn't know the difference
Or would you?
In santa Monica, all the people got modern names
Like Jake or Mandy
And modern bodies too
In Santa Monica, on the boulevard,
You'll have to dodge those in-line skaters
or they'll knock you down
I never felt so lonely,
Never felt so out of place
I never wanted something more than this
But on the telephone line I am anyone
I am anything I want to be
I can be a supermodel or
Norman Mailer
And you wouldn't know the difference
On the telephone line, I am any height
I am any age I want to be
I can be a caped crusader, or a space invader
And you wouldn't know the difference
Or would you?

When we interpret the meaning being expressed, Savage Garden's 'Santa Monica' is a musical piece that tells about the sensation of being in a wrong place and being lonely in a world of fake people who are trying to achieve certain modern standards. The words talk about the telephone line as a means of getting away from reality, which is like a magic portal to anybody and everyone one's heart desires, also raising the issue of identity and the way it is perceived in an external giant that is obsessed with appearances. The song mainly points out empowerment, inspiration, freedom, contemplation, and insulation. Moreover, it highlights the struggle for one's identity and self-esteem, the woes of being alone and inarticulate, and the issues of living in a modern world and being superficial.
