I think the song is about a young lad who is 'in love' with a girl who doesn't even acknowledge him, He goes to a strip club for attention and hopes to make her jealous or maybe she acknowledge's him but she doesn't think he's 'man enough' to be her boyfriend. ''Now I'm of consenting age to be forgetting you in a cabaret'' He's saying 'im old enough to go and i can forget about you easy when there's proper 'women' around.' ''Somewhere downtown where a burlesque queen may even ask my name'' A dig at th fact the girl doesn't take the time to know him yet a stripper would. ''I'm seated and sweating to a dance song on the club's P.A.'' He's nervous because he doesn't really want to be there but he thinks it's the why for her to notice him. ''And isn't this exactly where you'd like me I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know Praying for love in a lap dance and paying in naivety'' 'and isn't this exactly where you'd like me I'm exactly where you'd like me' Suggests that he's there for her to show that he is 'man eough' because he's at a strip joint, where all the manly men would go. 'Praying for in a lap dance and paying in naivety' obviously he would like to be loved but he is naive to think it'd come from a lap dancer who is just doing her job. ''Well, I may of faked it And I wouldn't be caught dead in this place'' Again something that suggests he doesn't want to be there cause he's not used to sleezy places but he goes to try and prove he' a Man. Well that's my ideas of what the lines mean :) Marvelous song!! ;D |
