The meaning of Loser Of The Year could be summed up in four words: fame (or money) is not everything. Check out how Pierre feels about this song:
“The idea behind this song is basically that you can have all these things: you can have money, you can have cars, you can have champagne and all that stuff but if you’re not with someone who you love or you’re not surrounded by people that you love, you’re really just a loser. I actually can identify to this song lyrically also in another meaning: I feel that our band, if we didn’t have you guys, if we didn’t have fans, if we didn’t have people to support us, no matter how successful we might be, we’d just be losers.”
– Pierre Bouvier –
There’s a lot of talk about me
People lining up to meet me
I’m on the verge of celebrity
So what you think about that
I’ve got friends in high places
Louis Vuitton siutcases
Look at all the pretty faces
So what you think about that
So why do I feel like it’s all just a show?
You make me want to shut it all down
Throw it away
Cause I’m nothing if I don’t have you
What’s the point in being on top
All the money in the world
If I can’t blow it all on you
So send the cars back
Put the house on the market
And my big dreams too
Cause it’s all so clear
That without you here
I’m the loser of the year
I’m at a party in a mansion
There’s a lot of high fashion
And I’m cooler than I’ve ever been
So what you think about that?
I’m living life in the fast lane
I’ve got a fridge full of champagne
And I’m hanging out with Lil’ Wayne
So what you think about that?
So why do I feel like it’s all just a show?
You make me want to shut it all down
Throw it away
Cause I’m nothing if I don’t have you
What’s the point in being on top
All the money in the world
If I can’t blow it all on you
So send the cars back
Put the house on the market
And my big dreams too
Cause it’s all so clear
That without you here
I’m the loser of the year
(loser, loser)
I’m the loser of the year
(loser, loser)
I can try real hard
I can try to pretend
That all these dreams make any sense
without you
But that just ain’t true
I thought these things would make me forget
About you and me
But you’re stuck in my head
I’m a loser if i lose her
You make me want to shut it all down
Throw it away
Cause I’m nothing if I don’t have you
What’s the point in being on top
All the money in the world
If I can’t blow it all on you
You make me want to shut it all down
Throw it away
Cause I’m nothing if i don’t have you
So send the cars back
Put the house on the market
And my big dreams too
Cause it’s all so clear
That I need you near
Yeah it’s all so clear
That without you here
I’m the loser of the year
loser of the year
I’m the loser of the year
loser of the year
