Lenka – The Show lyrics
I'm just a little bit
Caught in the middle
Life is a maze
And love is a riddle
I don't know where to go
I can't do it alone
(I've tried)
And I don't know why

Slow it down
Make it stop
Or else my heart is going to pop
'Cuz it's too much
Yeah, it's a lot
To be something I'm not

I'm a fool
Out of love
'Cuz I just can't get enough

I'm just a little bit
Caught in the middle
Life is a maze
And love is a riddle
I don't know where to go
I can't do it alone
(I've tried)
And I don't know why

I am just a little girl
Lost in the moment
I'm so scared
But don't show it
I can't figure it out
It's bringing me down
I know
I've got to let it go
And just enjoy the show

The sun is hot
In the sky
Just like a giant spotlight
The people follow the sign
And synchronize in time
It's a joke
Nobody knows
They've got a ticket to that show
Yeah

I'm just a little bit
Caught in the middle
Life is a maze
And love is a riddle
I don't know where to go
I can't do it alone
(I've tried)
And I don't know why

I am just a little girl
Lost in the moment
I'm so scared
But don't show it
I can't figure it out
It's bringing me down
I know
I've got to let it go
And just enjoy the show

Oh oh
Just enjoy the show
Oh oh

I'm just a little bit
Caught in the middle
Life is a maze
And love is a riddle
I don't know where to go
I can't do it alone
(I've tried)
And I don't know why

I am just a little girl
Lost in the moment
I'm so scared
But I don't show it
I can't figure it out
It's bringing me down
I know
I've got to let it go
And just enjoy the show

Dum de dum
Dudum de dum

Just enjoy the show

Dum de dum
Dudum de dum

Just enjoy the show

I want my money back
I want my money back
I want my money back
Just enjoy the show

I want my money back
I want my money back
I want my money back
Just enjoy the show

    We are all "caught in the middle" in some time in our lives. You might be married and feel attracted to someone else. Life is really a maze and love a riddle, it plays games on you, on what you thought it should be. For me "the show" is the society, everybody does was society expects from us, very few step back to see it as an expectator just for the fun of it, and not because that's what you are supposed to do. At the end she wants her money back! That means she was dissapointed. I'm sure she'll look for another show. Something funnier. Life is short :)

    I feel like this song is about that awkward teenage stage when you get treated like a child but you are expected to act like an adult. So "The Show" would be the roller coaster you are on in that time, if that makes sense? It's sort of how she finds it, looking back on her experience of her teenage years. its like it is all getting a bit much, and she is also dealing with the love problems that comes with this stage. At the end, she chants, it is like she is looking back and realizing all the mistakes she made and what she would have changed.

    It's like your a li'l girl when you enjoy life. Coz when people grew up they often forgot to enjoy life as what it is. This song is totally me. It's like it's fun to be a li'l crazy sometimes. After a long work one day I saw a park and I'm so tired and a bit stressed, the color of the grass there is soo clean and green, so inviting. I just go there and lay like when you lay on a snow field. I look up in the sky and rest my mind for a bit. I became a child again for a short time. Hehe.
