Weasel
Love's Cliff: Battling the Weasel of Unrequited Affection
Lyrics
Mama said
Mama advises or instructs.
"It's time to go to bed it's past your bed time"
Mama enforces bedtime due to it being past the proper time.
I can't sleep
The speaker has difficulty sleeping.
And neither can you
Suggests that the person being addressed is also unable to sleep.
Ooh
An exclamation expressing emotion or emphasis.
I close my bedroom door and wait
The speaker closes their bedroom door and waits.
For a minute
Waiting for a brief period.
Climbed out the window and fell of the roof
The speaker climbs out of the window and falls off the roof.
Just for you
This action is done for someone special.
Why can't you be mine
Expresses a desire for a romantic relationship.
You little weasel
The person being addressed is called a "weasel," possibly implying deceit or cunning behavior.
You run around and think I'm gonna please ya
Criticizing the weasel for expecting to be pleased.
You're wrong like I told you on the phone
Reiterating that the weasel is mistaken, as previously mentioned on the phone.
Back the freak away from me I'm calling pest control
The speaker wants the weasel to stay away and compares them to a pest, suggesting annoyance.
I had a dream of when you and me
Recalling a dream involving the speaker and the weasel running away together.
Ran away like a movie scene
The dream resembles a movie scene.
It turned out it wasn't a dream at all
Revelation that the dream might not be fictional.
It had a cliff with an endless fall
The dream involves a cliff with an endless fall, possibly representing uncertainty or danger.
I feel scared all the time
The speaker feels scared constantly.
Cause there's a chance you won't be mine
Fear stems from the possibility of not being in a relationship with the weasel.
I'll go over and over and over
Expressing a repetitive cycle of thoughts.
To see you again
Willing to go to great lengths to see the weasel again.
Why can't you be mine
Reiteration of the desire for a romantic relationship.
You little weasel
Repeating the term "weasel" as a derogatory label.
You run around and think I'm gonna please ya
Reiterating the weasel's expectation of being pleased.
You're wrong like I told you on the phone
Emphasizing the weasel's error mentioned earlier on the phone.
Back the freak away from me I'm calling pest control
Strongly urging the weasel to stay away, employing pest control as a metaphor.
Why can't you be mine
Continued expression of the desire for a romantic relationship.
You little weasel
Repetition of the derogatory label "weasel."
You run around and think I'm gonna please ya
Reiterating the weasel's misguided expectation of being pleased.
You're wrong like I told you on the phone
Reemphasizing the weasel's error mentioned on the phone.
Back the freak away from me I'm calling pest control
Strongly urging the weasel to stay away, using pest control as a metaphor.
Why can't you be mine
