You're at a fancy dinner with these bigwigs and suits and snobs and assorted other elites, and you feel awkward ("I don't know why I came here tonight/I got the feelin' that something ain't right") and, in the presence of The Powers That Be, you're terrified of making a bad impression- "I'm so scared in case I fall off my chair/And I'm wondering how I'll get down the stairs.It's so hard to keep this smile from my face/Losing control, yeah, I'm all over the place." But you spend time with them, and you realize that they're nothing but a pack of assholes-"Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right/Here I am, stuck in the middle with you." This would especially make sense if he was at the dinner with a bandmate and he knew they both felt the same way. Kayteeoh - A review of the song calls it a "clever corporate snub", so you could be right: For the record, though, I still haven't seen the movie. So thanks, Q.T., for keeping a good song alive.
#Stuck with you lyrics movie#
I'm tempted to be smug and say "I liked it before it was in Reservoir Dogs." But I'm fairly young and, ironically, I probably wouldn't have heard it on oldies stations if its use in that movie hadn't caused a resurgence in popularity, thus causing it to re-enter popular consciousness and make it worthwhile for oldies stations to put it back in rotation. 'Cause I don't think that I can take anymore Losing control, yeah, I'm all over the placeĬlowns to the left of me, jokers to the rightĪnd you're proud that you're a self made manīut I can see that it makes no sense at all
It's so hard to keep this smile from my face
I'm so scared in case I fall off my chairĪnd I'm wondering how I'll get down the stairs I got the feeling that something ain't right
Well, I don't know why I came here tonight
