a song which describes fake peoples in an amazing melody indirectly calling em out in the jazz and indie pop
Lyrics
(ooh-ooh, la-la, do-do-do)
Vinyl crackle, brass with a wink — uh-huh, yeah
Porcelain smiles on paper collars, they fold like a note
They serve you sugared language in a crystal throat
Pocket-sized compliments, satin on a string
They gesture like actors in a play you didn't sing
Polished like coins, but hollow in the ring
When the light leans in they don't glow — they just cling
I sip my small truth slow, watch the manners rehearse
They pass around applause like it's owed, like it's theirs (like it's theirs)
The room hums polite, they practice the lines
I keep the real in my pocket, they keep the signs
Glitter on the surface, glitter on the surface (uh-huh, yeah)
Glitter on the surface, glitter on the surface (oh-oh)
All that shimmer, all that posture, all that pretty rehearsal
Glitter on the surface, glitter on the surface
They bouquet their stories in borrowed bloom, perfumed confetti
Smile with the script, then fold it neatly, oh so steady
They call the weather friendly, then complain about the rain
They offer you a map with a missing lane
Gold leaf promises that chip away by noon
They dance in borrowed shoes to a borrowed tune
I watch the shadow play, the paper puppets sway
They trade in old applause, and call it déjà vu (call it déjà vu)
You can keep your satin words, your polished little curse
I keep my crooked truth — it still rehearses worse
Glitter on the surface, glitter on the surface (yeah, yeah)
Glitter on the surface, glitter on the surface (la-la)
All that shimmer, all that posture, all that pretty rehearsal
Glitter on the surface, glitter on the surface
Keep your postcards from a life you didn't live (keep 'em, keep 'em)
Say the lines you were taught to forgive (uh-huh)
I'll leave the applause to the painted crowd
I'll tip my hat to the brass and bow out loud (heyi ya)
If you need a mirror that flatters the lie
Paint your day with gloss and silver dye
But when the room is quiet and the lights are small
You can't clap for someone else's fall
Glitter on the surface, glitter on the surface (oh-oh)
Glitter on the surface, glitter on the surface (oh-oh)
All that shimmer, all that posture, all that pretty rehearsal
Glitter on the surface, glitter on the surface
Glitter on the surface, glitter on the surface (do-do-do)
