Get Off
Escape the Chains: The Dandy Warhols' Yearning to Break Free
Lyrics
Yeah like it or not.
Expressing acceptance whether others like it or not.
Like a ball and a chain.
Comparing a feeling or situation to being like a burden or restraint.
All I want to do is get off, I feel it for a minute babe.
Desire to escape or break free, feeling it momentarily.
Hot diggity dog, I love god all the same.
Expression of enthusiasm or surprise, mixed with a religious reference.
But all i want to do is get off, I feel it, I feel it, I feel it babe.
Reiteration of the desire to get off, emphasizing the feeling.
Baby, come on yeah, If you have a hard time gettin' there, maybe you're gone.
Encouragement for someone to join, suggesting they might be distant.
If you find, you find yourself forget yourself.
Self-reflection on losing oneself, possibly in a challenging situation.
Yeah maybe I fought.
Possibly acknowledging a past conflict or struggle.
One thought I was saved.
A reflection on a moment of salvation or rescue.
But all I want to do is get off,
Reiteration of the desire to get off, with a focus on the genuine experience.
and feel it for a minute like the real thing baby, I guess.
Desire to feel something real for a moment, acknowledging uncertainty.
I already forgot, what I thought I would say.
Forgetting what was planned to be said, possibly due to distraction.
But all i want to do is get off. I feel it, I feel it, I feel it babe.
Re-emphasis on the desire to get off, intensifying the feeling.
Baby, come on yeah. If you have a hard time gettin' there, maybe you're gone.
Encouragement for someone struggling to reach a certain state, implying they might be absent.
If you find, you find yourself, forget yourself.

Hey, come on yeah. If you have a hard time gettin' there, maybe you're gone.
Repetition of encouraging someone possibly absent to join.
If you find, you find yourself forget yourself.
Reiteration of the advice to avoid self-forgetting during the journey.
And like it or not, Like a ball and a chain.
Repeating the acceptance of a situation, likening it to a burden.
All I want to do is get off.
Restating the desire to get off, emphasizing the authenticity of the experience.
And feel it for a minute like the real thing baby, oh yes.
Desire to feel something real for a moment, re-emphasized with enthusiasm.
I already forgot, what I thought I would say.
Reiteration of forgetting planned thoughts, suggesting a recurring theme.
But all I want to do is get off, I feel it, I feel it, I feel it babe.
