    Song Meaning
    Continuing on with the party theme, the narrator now notices a wild dress that one of the other female partygoers is wearing. Time seems to stop as he looks at this girl, and he becomes "sick with pleasure." The situation feels like a psychotic hallucination to the narrator, and he can't seem to break free from the spell put on him by the girl and her loud party dress.
    Lyrics
    Smell your Technicolor in your eyes
    Makes me sick with pleasure in my mind
    Shake it like it's so enlightening
    Staring in the sun that's blinding
    Like a bottle rocket in the sky

    Dressed to the nines like a black cat's eyes
    You're such a beautiful mess tonight

    Wow that dirty dress is so loud
    Wow that dirty dress is so loud
    And it goes

    Wearing a psychotic red alert
    Your bouquet of flowers in the dirt
    Radioactive and primal
    Nuclear and so delightful
    Wearing Day-Glo where you know it hurts

    Dressed to the nines like a black cat's eyes
    You’re such a beautiful mess tonight

    Wow that dirty dress is so loud
    Wow that dirty dress is so loud
    And it goes

    Smell your Technicolor in your eyes
    Makes me sick with pleasure in my mind
    Shake it like it's so enlightening
    Staring in the sun that's blinding
    Like a bottle rocket in the sky

    Dressed to the nines like a black cat's eyes
    You’re such a beautiful mess tonight

    Wow that dirty dress is so loud
    Wow that dirty dress is so loud
    And it goes
