Lyrics
Now you're coming through the backdoor
Entering discreetly or indirectly, possibly metaphorically.
How did you get there
Questioning the method or path taken to arrive at the current situation.
Do I mind
Asking if the presence is bothersome or unwelcome.
That's a question for the asking
Posing a query about the impact or significance of the entry.
How did you get there
Reiterating the curiosity about the means of arrival.
Do I mind
Repeating the question of whether the arrival is objectionable.
Will you linger a little longer
Inquiring about the possibility of staying longer.
While I wonder
Expressing contemplation or reflection while the guest is present.
Watch me wear my ruse
Drawing attention to a deceptive act or strategy.
Awake your world
Indicating a desire to influence or manipulate the surroundings.
And run with fools
Suggesting a willingness to engage in risky or foolish behavior.
Now I'm coming through the backdoor
Now the speaker is the one entering through the backdoor.
How did I get here
Raising the same question about the speaker's arrival as in line 2.
Do I mind
Repeating the query about the acceptability of the entrance.
In an eerie sort of way
Describing the situation with an eerie or unsettling quality.
I sense you reaching
Sensing the other person making an effort to connect or communicate.
Do I mind
Repeating the question of whether the arrival is bothersome.
Will you linger a little longer
Asking if the guest will stay a little longer.
While I wonder
Reiterating a sense of contemplation or curiosity in the speaker.
