My Chemical Romance - Give 'Em Hell Kid Lyrics Meaning
HELLO?? It’s about teenage pregnancy:
"And they shot me full of ephedrine"
"this is how we do it in the murder scene"
- Ephedrine is a diet pill that when taken in large amouts whilst pregnant can kill your unborn child. This shows that the young girl is scared about being pregnant and wants it to go away, it also suggests that she is taking these diet pills to stay thin so she can "forget" that she is pregnant.
"Well I'm a total wreck and almost everyday
Like the fireiing squad or the mess you made"
-This is aimed at the boyfriend who got her pregnant. She is very scared and confused and angry. It was not just her fault as it was him who got her into this mess in the first place.
"Well I don't look pretty walking down the street
In the best damn dress I own?"
- Her faveorite dress doesn't fit her anymore and this makes her feel unattractive and not very pretty due to her pysical condition.
"We are young and we don't car
Your dreams and your hopeless hair
We never wanted it to be this way"
- They are too young to have a child. They have lost all their dreams. When you are that young, you should not have to worry about raising a child. You should only have small, petty things like your hair to worry about.
"If you were here
I'd never have a fear
So go on live your life
But I miss you more than I did yesterday"
- I think that maybe the boyfriend has left her when she needs him most. He has left so he can live his life, leaving her alone and scared. She misses him and wants him to come back. I think she is also very angry at him for leaving her in this state and wonders if he ever even cared about her-
"Do you care at all?"
