I'd Get My Ass Kicked for You
Unyielding Love: A Song's Battle of Devotion
Lyrics
I've never been in a physical fight
Expressing a lack of experience in physical confrontations.
But I'd get my ass kicked for you
Committing to endure physical harm or defeat on behalf of someone else.
I'd show a sheer lack of physical might
Acknowledging personal physical limitations but still willing to face consequences for the person addressed.
And I'd get my ass kicked for you
Reiterating the commitment to endure physical consequences for the sake of the person mentioned.
For you
Emphasizing that the willingness to face challenges is specifically for the addressed individual.
I'm not Mr Wrong
Asserting a self-awareness of not being a perfect partner but still expressing devotion.
I'm not Mr Right
Rejecting extremes of being entirely wrong or right, implying a nuanced self-perception.
I've never saved friends from thugs
Denying a history of heroic actions, especially in violent situations in nightclubs.
In the clubs of the night
Highlighting a lack of experience in rescuing friends from dangerous situations.
But for you dear, I'd put up a famous fight
Promising to put up a significant fight specifically for the person being addressed.
And I'd get my ass kicked for you
Reiterating the commitment to face physical harm for the sake of the mentioned individual.
For you
Reaffirming that the willingness to endure consequences is solely for the person in focus.
When dismembered and bloodied
Describing a scenario of being dismembered and bloodied, suggesting extreme physical harm.
In a heap on the floor
Depicting a grim image of being in a heap on the floor, emphasizing vulnerability.
Then stretched by bouncers straight out the front
Describing a situation of being forcefully removed by bouncers from a venue.
I will lean over and say
Anticipating a moment of communication even in the midst of physical distress.
Now you know the promise was true
Stating that the sacrifice was genuine, expressing honesty and commitment.
Only beloved, I just got my ass kicked for you
Confirming the fulfillment of the promise to endure physical harm for the sake of the beloved.
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Repeating a celebratory affirmation of the commitment made throughout the song.
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
-Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
-Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
