Tart Tart
Unlocking Desires: Happy Mondays' Revelations in 'Tart Tart'
Lyrics
When he came out to the lock-up
When he emerged from the storage space
He said I'm looking for something better
He expressed a desire for something superior
He made his shock announcement
He made a surprising declaration
And backed off, backed down, backed off
And retreated, withdrew, stepped back
And then he got up off the floor
Afterwards, he rose from the ground
He said I'm wealthy enough, not to do this no more
He asserted that he is financially well-off and won't continue with the current situation
And he made it all known with his hands held up, palm out
He communicated this clearly with his hands raised, palm facing outward
And she said don't know if i should
A woman expresses uncertainty about a decision
'Cause i worry too much about the tests on the blood
She is concerned about medical tests related to blood
And at first it was a 'yes', and then a 'no', then a 'yes'.
Initially, it was a positive response, then turned negative, then positive again
A maggot sleeps on her desk
A maggot is resting on her desk
H wears a sleeping bag as his vest
A person (possibly "H") uses a sleeping bag as a makeshift vest
And he's getting too too bothered
He is becoming excessively troubled
About the spots on his chest, chest, chest
About blemishes or issues on his chest
Now she's (BLANK)...She laid it on
Now she is (BLANK)... She asserted something strongly
And a few days later she's gone
But a few days later, she disappeared
So its back to the womb
So it's a return to a comforting place, perhaps symbolized as the womb
To get drowned, drowned, drowned, drowned warm (???)
To experience a metaphorical drowning in warmth
