Unbelievable Song Lyrics
Oh!
(What the?)
(What the f**k was that?)
You burden me with your questions
You'd have me tell no lies
You're always asking what it's all about
But don't listen to my replies
You say to me I don't talk enough
But when I do I'm a fool
These times I've spent, I've realized
I'm going to shoot through
And leave you
The things, you say
Your purple prose just gives you away
The things, you say
You're unbelievable
Oh!
(What the?)
(What the f**k was that?)
You burden me with your problems
By telling me more than mine
I'm always so concerned
With the way you say
You've always go to stop
To think of us being one
Is more than I ever know
But this time, I realize
I'm going to shoot through
And leave you
The things, you say
Your purple prose just gives you away
The things, you say
You're unbelievable
Oh!
(What the?)
(What the?)
(What the?)
(What the f**k was that?)
Seemingly lastless, don't mean
You can ask us
Pushing down the relative
Bringing out your higher self
Think of the fine times
Pushing down the better few
Instead of bringing out the clues
To want the world and everything your asked to
Brace yourself with the grace of ease
I know this world ain't what it seems
(What the f**k was that?)
(It's unbelievable)
You burden me with your questions
You'd have me tell no lies
You're always asking what it's all about
But don't listen to my replies
You say to me I don't talk enough
But when I do I'm a fool
These times I've spent, I've realized
I'm going to shoot through
And leave you
The things, you say
Your purple prose just gives you away
The things, you say
It's why I love you more
The things, you say
Your purple prose just gives you away
The things, you say
You're unbelievable
Oh!
(What the?)
(What the)
You're so unbelievable
(What the?)
(What the?)
You're unbelievable
(It's unbelievable)
Oh!
(What the?)
(What the?)
(What the?)
(What the f**k was that?)
You're unbelievable

Annotations and Meaning:
The song "Unbelievable" from EMF is really an incredible infusion of alternative rock with a good dose of the dance genre, capturing themes of sheer frustration and amazement at a partner's behavior. It has been said that the track contains a very energetic beat, and its chorus is indeed very catchy, becoming one of the staple songs of early 90s rock music.
The words begin with impatience as the singer complaints of feeling under interrogation and being misunderstood, "You burden me with your questions; you'd have me tell no lies." This helps establish a narrative of communication breakdown, where the protagonist feels under siege by his partner's relentless questioning and inability to understand.
The lines, "The things you say / Your purple prose, just gives you away," are a swipe at the partner speaking in a rather ornate way or being insincere in it. The term "purple prose" usually applies to that form of writing that is flowery, overdone, and detracts from the actual text at hand; so now, the partner's communication can be described as overwhelming and disingenuous at best.
Interjections like, "Oh my God" and "What the hell is that?" and other expletive expressions or words do punctuate the song, pointing at the narrator's shock and disbelief towards rolling out situations, hence the caption "unbelievable." This directly comments on the partner's behavior or the situation given how absurd/extreme it is.
This infectious rhythm, underlined by a very hooky hook line, "You're unbelievable," goes to highlight the double feeling of admiration and frustration, which was repeated most places throughout the lyrics.
"This must be the place" probably amplifies the high energy, conflict, or pivotal character interactions in the "Snack Shack" soundtrack through its dynamic tempo and thematic lyrics to add depth to the emotional layers of the storyline.
