Luck of the Draw
Navigating Love's Maze: Pansy Division's Candid Reflections
Lyrics
Once slept with a black-haired lad
Engaged in a sexual encounter with a dark-haired man.
Went up his apartment
Went to his apartment.
Pretty quickly, things turned bad
Things turned unpleasant quickly.
Passion wasn´t his department
The person lacked enthusiasm or interest in passion.
Too busy shoving poppers up his nose
He was preoccupied with using poppers (amyl nitrite).
To notice me
He didn't notice the speaker.
Took a chance with another
Took a chance with another person.
Frolicking in bed
Engaged in playful activity in bed.
But he couldn´t get exited
The person couldn't become aroused without unusual stimulation.
Unless I help a pillow tightly over his head
Describes an unconventional method for the person to get excited.
Just your average boy next door
Describes the second person as an ordinary neighbor.
Well they say some day prince will come
Skeptical about the idea of a prince coming into their life.
Not holding my breath anymore
No longer expecting a fairy-tale ending.
You gotta kiss some frogs
Uses a common saying about kissing frogs as a metaphor for dating.
You´ve heard that one before
Acknowledges the familiar saying about the need to kiss frogs.
Now i´ve kissed a lot of frogs
The speaker has had various romantic encounters.
Am I better off than I was before
Questions if the speaker is in a better situation now.
Sitting here alone chapped lips
Sitting alone with dry or chapped lips.
I´ve never been a slut
Denies being promiscuous despite multiple encounters.
Though i´ve slept with more than a few
Reflecting on the possibility of embracing a more open attitude towards relationships.
Maybe that´s something that
Contemplating the idea of being more sexually liberated.
I could aspire to
Considering a change in personal attitude.
There´s a lotta people in this town
Observing a lack of self-awareness in the local population.
Who never seem to come to grips with
People struggle with their sexual desires.
How they feel from the waist down
People have difficulty understanding their sexual needs.
Well i´ve been reading the personals
Reading personal ads and noticing two distinct types of individuals.
There seems to be two kinds
There are either hopeless romantics or individuals with no clear intentions.
Helpless romantics, or guys with
Men who lack meaningful thoughts.
Absolutely nothing on their minds
Describes a focus on physical pleasure without emotional connection.
But the endless bump and grind
Describes a monotonous and predictable sexual routine.
Living in a fishbowl
Feeling exposed or scrutinized in a small community.
Here at the edge of the world
Living on the outskirts, aware of geographical limitations.
You can´t go west forever
Reflecting on the impossibility of going west indefinitely.
Or you´ll hit ocean bottom
A warning about reaching the bottom of the ocean if one goes too far west.
Looking up from the golden gate
Unable to see beyond certain geographical points.
I can´t see east of the berkeley hills
Limited vision towards the east from the speaker's location.
But some people wanna live in north dakota
Some people have a desire to live in less-populated areas like North Dakota.
Maybe you can go far in fargo
Speculation about the potential success of living in Fargo.
