  • "Ruler of Everything" by Tally Hall. From the album "Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum", originally released in 2005 and rereleased in 2008.
    Juno was mad; he knew he'd been had
    So he shot at the sun with a gun
    Shot at the sun with a gun
    Shot at his wily one only friend
    In the gallows or the ghetto
    In the town or the meadow
    In the billows, even over the sun
    Every end of a time is another begun
    You understand, mechanical hands are the ruler of everything
    The ruler of everything
    I'm the ruler of everything in the end
    Do you like how I dance? I've got zirconium pants
    (Consequential enough to slip you into a trance)
    Do you like how I walk? Do you like how I talk?
    Do you like how my face disintegrates into chalk?
    I have a wonderful wife, I have a powerful job
    She criticizes me for being egocentric
    (You practice your mannerisms into the wall)
    If this mirror were clearer, I'd be standing so tall
    (I saw you slobber over clovers on the side of the hill)
    I was observing the birds (circling in for the kill)
    I've been you, I know you, your façade is a scam
    You know you're making me cry, this is the way that I am
    I've been living a lie, a metamorphical scheme
    Detective undercover, brotherhood, objective, obscene
    Oh, no, no, oh, yeah
    Do you hear the flibbity jibbity jibber jabber
    With an "Oh my god I've got to get out of here or I'll have another
    "Word to sell, another story to tell
    "Another timepiece ringing the bell"
    Do you hear the clock stop when you reach the end?
    No, you know it must be neverending
    Comprehend if you can
    But when you try to pretend to understand
    You resemble a fool, although you're only a man
    So give it up and smile
    Do you hear the flibbity jibbity jibber jabber
    With an, "Oh my god I've got to get out of here or I'll have another
    "Word to sell, another story to tell
    "Another timepiece​ ringing the bell"
    Do you hear the clock stop when you reach the end?
    No, you know it must be neverending
    Comprehend if you can
    But when you try to pretend to understand
    You resemble a fool, although you're only a man
    So give it up and smile
    You understand, mechanical hands are the ruler of everything
    The ruler of everything
    I'm the ruler of everything in the end
    Without looking down, gliding around
    Like a bumbling dragon I fly
    Scraping my face on the sky
    Oh, no, no, oh, yeah

    It took me a while to realize that there are two characters talking to each other in first chunk of the song. One is an arrogant human (higher pitched voice) and the other is Time (lower pitched voice). Both declare themselves to be the ruler of everything at the start of the song, but then Time puts the human's ego in check. After that, the fast voice gives a word of wisdom not to freak out about the passage of time and just enjoy being part of a great never-ending cycle.

      Man after realizing that he's nothing acts like he understands,
      "I've been living a lie" trying to act self-aware then time tells him many other people have been "aware" and their objective to find meaning in life is Obscene
      Then some third party affiliated with time explains further why
      do you know what happens when you die
      (Do you hear the Clock stop when you reach the end)
      Then Ends off by telling the human when you pretend that you somehow understand it all you resemble a fool but he doesn't blame you for that because you're Simply human there's no way you could understand how small you are
      So give up the act don't act like your high and mighty don't act like you know your place you're ignorant understand that fact and live your life

      its why we should live our lives best we can, why waste our (heheh) time, trying to stop or slow, or mess with time, when we can enjoy what we have, and who we have around us right?
      just enjoy our lives best as possible, give up on trying to make things never end, and move on from the things that harm us or put us down, and just smile, and enjoy the little and big things we have in life.
      we all are going to die one day...and sure...we may never do everything we want to in life, or feel we're going to die too soon.
      but instead of worrying how and when it will end, we should enjoy what we have, and who we have in our lives, and try and show them the same way to enjoy and worry less.
      sure therse always things to worry about...but our end, the time it shall take, shouldn't be one of them, never worry about the inevitable, just worry about what we CAN change, and enjoy ourselves changing things for the better where we can, and even just the small moments.
      death is inevitable... and we mourn losses all the time...but many forget to remember the good times, and enjoy those memories...
      in the end, time, will change all, end all, and end itself even, all in one second if not less one day...
      have a good day, and enjoy your life, I hope all goes well, and even if it doesn't, remember all the good things you HAVE experienced, treasure them, for they COULD be all you have one day.

      @@hak-en-slash4636 my take on it is that 'Juno' is a god because Juno is the name of a good in Roman mythology and as powerful and as otherworldly and above humanity as a god is, 'Juno' was met with time, and despite their power, despite how grand a god is. It still fades away just the same with time. Just like stars, galaxies, no matter how grand. It fades away upon the ticking of a clock. as powerful as 'Juno' was, they've been had by Time, the ruler of everything. Which drove them mad.

  • @darkassassin1745
    @darkassassin1745 3 роки тому +17

    Don’t know if anyone will see this since I’m just finding memes of it but my take on the song is that it could be viewed from 2 perspectives. The first being the perspective of being a person who lives a normal life being slipped into a “trance” of materialism that makes him think that owning nice things and having a standard nice life are important things on the surface but struggles with his inner voice telling him that everything he does is completely pointless because of the never ending march of time and it slowly eats away at him as he realizes how fleeting life is and that he could take on at any time. As the thought of this drives him insane, he begins to realize how unimportant his life and everything else is but also comes to think that being afraid of his life being worthless shouldn’t really bother him because it’s not like any of it concerns him personally anyways since he will die long before everything, if it ever does, stops and so he goes back living normally, presumably to go through this loop over and over in his life or perhaps it is signified that all throughout time, with sentience comes with this dilemma.

    • @darkassassin1745
      @darkassassin1745 3 роки тому +3

      The 2nd perspective, which I believe to be around the second half of the song itself, is from the perspective of time itself being personified announcing it’s awareness as its ruler of everything because it has seen everything rise and fall. Since nothing can outlive time because nothing can be without time having started, I think it becomes a lot more complex and is aware that it’s existence alone being unstoppable is what makes it the ruler of everything. Near the end of the song after the lyrics stop, you can hear a sight rewind “ahhh” sound which I believe to be time “restarting” itself for lack of a better term. As in everything just happening again just as it once did all within times grasp, therein which the first part of the song will once again continue to repeat all throughout time.

      and at 2:54, "without looking down, gliding around, like a bumbling dragon i fly

    In the gallows or the ghetto
    In the town or the meadow
    In the billows, even over the sun
    Every end of a time is another begun
    You understand, mechanical hands are the ruler of everything
    The ruler of everything
    I'm the ruler of everything in the end
    Do you like how I dance? I've got zirconium pants
    (Consequential enough to slip you into a trance)
    Do you like how I walk? Do you like how I talk?
    Do you like how my face disintegrates into chalk?
    I have a wonderful wife, I have a powerful job
    She criticizes me for being egocentric
    (You practise your mannerisms into the wall)
    If this mirror were clearer, I'd be standing so tall
    (I saw you slobber over clovers on the side of the hill)
    I was observing the birds (circling in for the kill)
    I've been you, I know you, your façade is a scam
    You know you're making me cry, this is the way that I am
    I've been living a lie, a metamorphical scheme
    Detective undercover, brotherhood, objective, obscene
    Oh, no, no, oh, yeah
    Do you hear the flibbity jibbity jibber jabber
    With an "Oh my god I've got to get out of here or I'll have another
    "Word to sell, another story to tell
    "Another timepiece ringing the bell"
    Do you hear the clock stop when you reach the end?
    No, you know it must be neverending
    Comprehend if you can
    But when you try to pretend to understand
    You resemble a fool, although you're only a man
    So give it up and smile
    Do you hear the flibbity jibbity jibber jabber
    With an, "Oh my god I've got to get out of here or I'll have another
    "Word to sell, another story to tell
    "Another timepiece​ ringing the bell"
    Do you hear the clock stop when you reach the end?
    No, you know it must be neverending
    Comprehend if you can

    You resemble a fool, although you're only a man
    So give it up and smile
    You understand, mechanical hands are the ruler of everything
    The ruler of everything
    I'm the ruler of everything in the end
    Without looking down, gliding around
    Like a bumbling dragon I fly
    Scraping my face on the sky
    Oh, no, no, oh, yeah

    If the SCP universe became some sort of netflix series, after it end dramatically, i want this to be the outro.
    The areas they mention like the towns, could show Task Forces that correspond to the area.
    The end of a time is another begun, counterbalance!
    Mechanical hands, Church of the Broken god.
    Ruler of everything, The Scarlet King.
    In the end, SCP~5000.
    Etc etc, idk what else after it.

      And in the last time it says "I'm the Ruler of Everything", it shows a browser with the real-life SCP wiki Swann's SCP-001 opened.
