      @@elfgooby9650 that a cool idea. For me, I see a guy who is described as “an arrogant and delusional loser” by his own family. So much so that he decides that he wants to be the main character in the series he is in. He was a background character in about five episodes, but now he wants to take center stage. In the foretold episode of this hypothetical show, the arrogant guy tries to butt in what the main antagonists are doing so that he can make it all about himself. The characters get annoyed by him,and they try to get rid of him. But to no avail. Then the guy breaks into this song singing about how important he is,making everyone around him uncomfortable. After the song is done,he gets either killed by a villain or dies in another way. Never to be seen again. The characters don’t really care that he is dead,and just carry on like nothing happened. The lesson is this: if you want to be loved and praised by your peers,all you have to do is be a good person and treat others with respect. Don’t be an utter asshole because you think your better then everyone. Unfortunately,Dennis learnt that the hard way.

    This song makes me want to create a webcomic about a guy who's mediocre at best in, well, just about everything, but has deluded himself into thinking that he's a main character in his universe. (With added irony that he's the protagonist of the comic) He expects everyone to treat him as the center of the universe, but is so over the top and theatrical about it no one can take him seriously. And the webcomic is just him stumbling through life, embarrassing himself over and over, but forever being blissfully ignorant due to his boundless ego.

      It's normal. The main character is the main meat of the story while the antagonist directly argues against the main character's beliefs, which are usually the most moral, which can create a more interesting character. Side characters are like the audience, just viewing the dilemma.

    one thing i think is interesting is how the narrator insists that they’re the good guy, up until the end where they switch “imagine if protagonists just died in the first scene” to “image if antagonists lacked any evil scheme”. For most of the song, they’re trying to justify themselves and their actions with lines like “villains are everywhere, that’s how i know that i’m the hero!” but then they stop. They don’t care if they’re the good guy or even a good person as long as they get to be the main character

    This makes me think the guy knows hes the MC, but that doesn't mean he knows what the best choices are. He did terrible things and sacrifice others so that he, the MC can survive.
    The song delves into him trying to explain to people that he only did those things bc hes the MC and he cant die so early, snapping at people in the last verse. (But I ain't done a fucking thing to you) Ironically, its unclear if there even is an antagonist with an evil scheme.

    I have an idea for something based on this, a character who would have no importance to the story usually starts changing the entire storyline to fit them being the main character, like bringing in villains to fight to show strength, saving people in distress and normal protagonist things all while the main characters watch in fear at what they are doing, later on they would befriend one of the main characters to get closer to there true goal, being a true main character. Near the end they realise that they will never be the protagonist with out the real protagonist gone, so they try to kill them and they have a battle to the death that lasts almost an eternity because they both have plot armor.

My idea of is kinda like a fairy tale world were all the main cast have a powers that ties them to a arch type, except the main character who is essentially a background character that stumbled into the story. He does a lot of important things, makes important choices and suffers a lot but throughout the story theirs this undercurrent that the only beings that matter are “named” characters. The cast even has theories that he has a secret archetype. After a traumatic event where tons of background characters die yet the “main character” lives and he seems to be the only that that actual takes it seriously he breaks and convinces himself he survived because he’s the main character and their no other reason he would. He becomes the villain and starts treating archtypes like background characters, that’s when the story switches to another background character that becomes the main character. Whether the first main character is defeated or redeemed could change depending on how the story goes.

    That is, this is meant to be from the viewpoint of someone extremely arrogant who speaks from a position of privilege. As the song goes on, more and more political references get dropped (astroturf, overton, alternative facts, and I'm pretty sure Zyklon B is a reference to the holocaust). Either this is a character from an extremely realistic story, or it's a real person who sees reality as ficiton.
    At least, that's what I get after a few listens. Could very well be I'm missing something.

      I agree that it’s about 10 million times too on the nose to literally be about fiction. I was introduced to this song in the context of it being “about how social media enables and radicalizes narcissism” so I’ve been listening to the song under that context. IMO that interpretation makes the most sense; the general extremely over the top nature of the lyrics (imagery of cartoon superheroes and villains, royalty, etc) is slightly more reminiscent of social media culture. I imagined it as this very mediocre guy who probably had an inherent narcissistic streak and is a social media addict. The aforementioned nature of social media allows him to reach deluded levels of that narcissism over very basic stuff; “Villains are everywhere, that’s how I know that I’m a hero… And I outsmart them with a ray-gun **and a tweet. ** Sorry this is fairly repetitive

      You know I was going to roast you for theorizing something so obvious but looking at the comments apparently people are actually missing this. There is no such thing as a mention of Zyklon B that isnt a reference to the Holocaust. Like the song couldn't be more obvious that it is sung from the point of view of a person who is pathologically self centered.

      They're so seductive, like they're just waiting to be interpreted in a million ways.
      Yet will wood himself has said his songs aren't an essay. They arent meant to always have a theme, a cohesive story, or an interpretation.

    I’m writing a fan fic where the new MC meets up with the MC of the game that the story is a continuation of. In the original story, the MC basically becomes super powerful, yet not omniscient or anything. More like… “I can do anything I want but it might take time to plan it out and I’ll need some pawns to do it” kinda powerful. He IS also a colossal magical threat.
    Anyway, the new MC basically has the same type of power as the old MC, but with a few exceptions.
    For one, for most of the fan fics story, the new MC, just call him Jack, is doing basically what the old MC did in his game, but he is doing it alone. No backup or other units or anything. Just him and his demon servents that are part of the whole “one power” thing.
    And while the enemies that Jack is fighting aren’t AS powerful as the ones that the main character of the game fought, it’s still very impressive.
    Anyway; my point being, this song encapsulates exactly what the feeling of the old MCs would be.
    Jack has been getting stronger and stronger. He is more moral, treats others kindly, refuses to kill people that attack him first, ect.
    Old MC wanted to have Jack be his servent, which would then give HIM command over all the demons Jack has command over once he becomes as powerful as he can be.
    But Jack is basically being a BETTER MC, and in the story, you can tell that the old MC is kinda terrified. That this person is basically gonna take over his status as “most important”.
    Now, Jack had no actual intention of going that far…
    But when the old MC gets violent, and threatens Jack and his loved ones..?
    Well… self fulfilling prophetic guess.

Also with things like piglians and illager attacking you when you go near there bases and steal their stuff logically and canonical makes sense. Don’t even get me started on what they do to those villagers.
    Ether way, even if canonical these characters are scummy, even evil in some cases, we are no better, and in that case, Steve is no better.

    I have a idea of this, kinda like a fairy tale world were all the main cast have a powers that ties them to a arch type, except the main character who is essentially a background character that stumbled into the story. He does a lot of important things, makes important choices and suffers a lot but throughout the story theirs this undercurrent that the only beings that matter are “named” characters. The cast even has theories that he has a secret archetype. After a traumatic event where tons of background characters die yet the “main character” lives and he seems to be the only that that actual takes it seriously he breaks and convinces himself he survived because he’s the main character and their no other reason he would. He becomes the villain and starts treating archtypes like background characters, that’s when the story switches to another background character that becomes the main character. Whether the first main character is defeated or redeemed could change depending on how the story goes.

    Apparently this song is about an internet argument, but I have a much more interesting interpretation and one that fits the lyrics way better.
    I believe the song is about a main character who is able to break the fourth wall. He keeps doing all these cool things without effort but then everyone in the audience pays attention more to the side characters and antagonist. Those characters are more interesting than who’s supposedly the “main character”.
    He defends himself in various ways from the audience, causing the audience to hate him. (BUT I AIN’T DONE A FUCKING THING TO YOUUUUU!!! So GOD FORBID I’M seen as just an AVERAGE HUMAN BEING!!! I mean, IMAGINE IF ANTAGONISTS LACKED ANY EVIL SCHEME!!!
    I believe the song is about a main character who nobody likes, and he KNOWS that nobody likes him, and he can’t do anything about but sit there and wonder what the writers did wrong…
    So, basically if Rey from the Star Wars sequels could break the fourth wall.
