How About You
Turning Tides: Cheap Trick's Anthem of Resilience and Renewal
Lyrics
Never started out first
Never taking the lead from the start.
Never finished last
Avoiding being the last or finishing at the bottom.
Like to change the pace
Prefer changing the pace of life.
Like to change it fast
Enjoying quick and frequent changes.
And I'm ready to try
Expressing a willingness to attempt new things.
Just can't sit around here too long
Restlessness, not comfortable with prolonged inactivity.
I can feel the wheels are spinning strong
Sense of momentum or energy in motion.
Does anyone feel the same as me
Seeking commonality with others in shared feelings.
Does anyone disagree
Open to differing opinions or perspectives.
Well how 'bout you
Direct question, inviting the listener's response.
I said goodbye to bad luck
Bidding farewell to unfortunate circumstances.
I've had enough
Reaching a point of having had enough.
But I know I'll be back, dear
Expecting a return to challenging situations.
Didn't fall off the side of the earth
Surviving difficulties, not succumbing to them.
Gonna turn it all around
Determined to reverse one's fortunes.
How 'bout you, how 'bout me, how 'bout you
Repeating the question, emphasizing reciprocity.
Do you like your love soft and warm
Preference for tender and gentle love.
Do you like it hard, hot and long
Questioning preferences for intense and enduring love.
Like you're ready to die
Describing a passion as if it could be life-defining.
Sometimes I feel all wound up
Feeling tense or stressed.
Head starts spinnin', it'll never stop
Experiencing a sense of uncontrollable spinning.
Does anyone feel the same as me
Reiteration of the desire for shared experiences.
Does anyone disagree
Remaining open to different viewpoints.
Well how 'bout you
Restating the question, seeking a response.
I said bad times kiss them goodbye
Optimistic farewell to challenging times.
I want changes, but
Desiring change despite the likelihood of return.
I know I'll be back, dear
Anticipating a return to difficulties.
Didn't fall off the side of the earth
Surviving challenges, not succumbing to them.
Gonna turn it all around
Commitment to turning things around.
How 'bout you, how 'bout me, how 'bout you
Repetition of the question for emphasis.
I know I'll be back, dear
Confidence in overcoming challenges.
Didn't fall off the side of the earth
Surviving difficulties, emphasizing resilience.
Gonna turn it all around
Determination to change circumstances.
How 'bout you, how 'bout me, how 'bout you
Final repetition of the question, seeking mutual understanding.
