Excuse Me Sir I Think There's Someone You've Confused Me For Song Lyrics

Here lies Charlie
You can tell it's him 'cause we put his name on the stone

He kept his showers ice cold, used eco-friendly light bulbs
Rode his bicycle to work when the gasoline price rose
He'd judge with no pretense, fish on the weekends
Each morning, get up, do the Pledge of Allegiance
Never swim in the ocean, for fear of shark attacks
Bi-monthly get his wife a rose with a card attached
Avoiding all the little things that were hard to ask
Had a car crash, cardiac arrest, died of a heart attack
Up the golden escalator, all his friends and neighbors
Huddled there in prayer around the respirator
"Catch you later, I'm off to see the man upstairs
They all look like ants from here, stars and crystal chandeliers"
There was an angel at the entrance checking off a guest list
Charlie wasn't on it and was ushered to the exit
His heart sank, he was breathless

"Excuse me, sir, there must be someone you've confused me for
If I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniform
I go to church on Sunday, truly, usually more"
Screaming at the angels while they pushed him through the door
"Excuse me, sir, there must be someone you've confused me for
If I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniform
I go to church on Sunday, truly, usually more"
Screaming at the angels while they pushed him through the door

"Abandon all hope, all ye who enter"
It was a horrifying sign, but sounded like a neat adventure
Far beyond the halos and the castles in the clouds
Fatsos squealing, shackled with some apples in their mouths
Attention whores in padded bras hanging from extension cords
Tortured with the products from their favorite catalogs
Here, we buy and sell a million kinds of hell
Imagination is the limit to the devil's clientele
Up a dingy elevator, no televised debate or savior
Saves you from the hell you pay for, sorry, buddy, smell you later
Side-stepped fate, went right for the gate
But you know the devil, he loves a good chase
There was a demon at the entrance making X's on a checklist
Who would kick you in the ass when you begged him for repentance
Those tempted by the senses with the cruelest of intentions
Charlie's heart sank, he was breathless

"Excuse me, sir, there must be someone you've confused me for
If I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniform
I really don't belong here, I know you've heard the tune before"
Screaming at the demons while they pushed him through the door
"Excuse me, sir, there must be someone you've confused me for
If I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniform
I really don't belong here, I know you've heard the tune before"
Screaming at the demons while they pushed him through the door

You can run from your demons until you are exhausted
One day you will have to stop and find out what they wanted
Keep on running from those demons 'til you are exhausted
You can run to those angels 'til you are exhausted
One day you will have to stop and question what they wanted
Keep on running to those angels 'til you are exhausted

"Excuse me, sir, there must be someone you've confused me for (I don't want to die)
If I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniform
I really don't belong here, I know you've heard the tune before (Please don't let me die)
Excuse me, sir, there must be someone you've confused me for (I don't want to die)
If I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniform
I really don't belong here, I know you've heard the tune before" (Please don't let me die)

This song illustrates the life of a guy who has been strongly attracted to a girl and eventually developed great feelings for her. She makes him think about his old memories and how love starts, while at the same time she resembles his β€œdream girl.” He has fallen for her so much that he always thinks about her and dreams of how it will be when he is with her. What he wonders too is whether she loves him in return or if she just comes to him whenever she needs help. The line β€œButterflies stick like glue” expresses the romantic feelings and attractions towards her that he has whenever he meets her, and which are hard to escape from. He desires to get closer to her, to make her happy and have some special bond with her, although he does not know yet whether she sees or wants him. Eventually, the whole song is built around one thing – love is more powerful than anything else.
