Lyrics
Take me back to your room
Desire to return to a private space.
Tie me up and strip me naked
Expressing willingness to engage in bondage and nudity.
And lie me on your floor
Imagery of vulnerability, lying on the floor.
And then you'll see that sex is boring with me
Conveying that intimacy is unexciting in this context.
It's not what I came here for
Stating the primary purpose was not for sexual encounters.
It's not what I came here for
Reiteration of initial purpose, emphasizing dissatisfaction.
You know about hip hop and
Listing musical genres and praising house music.
You know about trip hop and
-You know about punk rock and
-You know about house music
-And house music,
-House music is the greatest thing of all
-And you've read more books than I
Acknowledging partner's extensive cultural knowledge.
I could ever read
-And you've seen more films than I
-I could ever see so
-Why is it, why is it, that you don't know any more than me
Questioning why the partner lacks certain knowledge.
And I hate hip hop and I
Expressing dislike for various music genres, especially house music.
I hate trip hop and I
-I hate punk rock and I
-I hate house music
-Because house music, house music never meant anything at all to me
-So take me back to your room
Repeating the desire for intimacy and reiterating its dullness.
Tie me up and strip me naked
-And lie me on your floor
-And then you'll see that sex is boring with me
-It's not what I came here for
-It's not what I came here for
-And I've got miles to go before I slave
Reflecting on personal struggles and rejecting potential savior role from the partner.
And you're not going to save me
-Although you think that you are
-And I've got miles to go before I slave
-And you're not going to save me
-Although you think that you are
-
