Lyrics

The lips that slip are the lips that press

The words that are spoken carelessly are the same words that create a strong impact.

And the lips that leak seem to know you best

Words that are shared in confidence seem to have a deeper understanding of you.


I put bodies into motion keep this skin out in the open

The singer is proactive in engaging in physical intimacy and doesn't hide their emotions.

Liars turn me on

The idea of deception or dishonesty is alluring to the singer.


Bed spread bandit since '89

The person has been a seductive figure since 1989.

You wear your heart on your sleeve

You express your emotions openly, while the singer took a risk by exposing their vulnerability.

And threw mine to the sky

The singer threw caution to the wind and expressed their feelings openly.


Bounce bounce baby, bounce back to me (you don't need this)

Encouraging someone to return, implying they don't need the current situation.

Bounce bounce baby, bounce back to me (you don't need this)

Repetition of the desire for the person to return.

This is it, call it quits with honesty (you don't need this)

Suggesting the end of the relationship with honesty.

Every word is a curse let loose on me

Every spoken word is like a curse directed at the singer.

Your mouth it moves but fails to speak

Your words lack sincerity or fail to convey genuine feelings.

And when you use your lips they better be on me

The singer desires the person's lips to be exclusively on them.


The lies that tied your tongue in knots

Deceptive words tied your tongue, causing confusion.

Are the words that grew to hit my spots

Words that initially seemed harmless grew to hurt the singer emotionally.

So filthy, dialed desire

Desire that is impure and tainted.

Swallowed pride but spit out fire

Swallowing pride but expressing intense passion.

Liars turn me on

The singer finds deception attractive.
