The meaning of the lyrics of the song "High 'N Dry" by the artist "Wig Wam"

Contents

The song "High 'N Dry" by the Norwegian glam metal band Wig Wam features a lyrical protagonist addressing his ex-lover who, after dumping him, is now trying to crawl back.

He describes her as cold-hearted and selfish, someone who "kicked him out the door" without a second thought about his feelings. Now that he has moved on and found success ("climbed to the top"), she, like a "kitten," is eager to return and get a "piece of the pudding" – to benefit from his achievements.

The protagonist doesn't fall for her charms, reminding her of the pain she caused him. He believes her remorse is too late and calls karma a "bitch" who repaid her for her actions. He is happy without her ("life's been so sweet") and revels in his "revenge" – finding happiness and success while she, chasing after a "pot of gold," has lost everything.

The song clearly explores themes of betrayal and the triumph of justice. The lyrical protagonist, unbroken by betrayal, found the strength to move on and achieve success, while his former lover ended up with nothing.

You left me cold

But Baby now you're back

For a piece of the pudding

Like a kittie cat

But your claws are too sharp to be charming

You were the one

Til babe you kicked me out

And left my heart in the gutter

No matter what you've got

It's not enough for my cream and my butter

It's way too late

To regret and change

The hands of fate

And Karma's such a bitch

Life's been fine

From the day you left me

High n dry

Now don't you hate

To admit you made a

Bad mistake

Karma's such a bitch

What a ride

Since the day you left me

High n dry

Crashed and burned

Out baby here I am

On the top of the ladder

What a sweet revenge

For all that it matters

When you went chasing that pot of gold

And turned your back to everything you loved

It's way too late

To regret and change

The hands of fate

And Karma's such a bitch

Life's been fine

From the day you left me

High n dry

Now don't you hate

To admit you made a

Bad mistake

Karma's such a bitch

What a ride

Since the day you left me

High n dry
