David Bowie – Suffragette City Lyrics 16 years ago
This is a song about a ball-busting feminist (i.e. Suffragette) who takes over a college-student's life and kills his dreams and friendships, with the promise of easy sex, until she's got him completely whipped.

LYRICS:

“Hey man, oh leave me alone you know
Hey man, oh Henry, get off the phone, I gotta
Hey man, I gotta straighten my face
This mellow thighed chick just put my spine out of place”

MEANING: He’s become spineless for the sake of sex, and thus he’s shutting out his friend Henry.

"Mellow-thighed" = "easy sex"



”Hey man, my schooldays insane
Hey man, my work's down the drain
Hey man, well she's a total blam-blam
She said she had to squeeze it but she... then she...”

MEANING: His liberated girlfriend is ruining his life with her demands on his time; but she puts out sex easily, so he puts up with it since she's in a "steady relationship" with him.

Oh don't lean on me man, cause you can't afford the ticket
I'm back on Suffragette City
Oh don't lean on me man
Cause you ain't got time to check it
You know my Suffragette City
Is outta sight...she's all right

MEANING: He’s whipped, i.e. she's controlling him with sex, over his friends; and he doesn't want his friends complaining about it. The "ticket," is the cost of him doing without sex if he doesn't do what she says.


"Hey man, Henry, don't be unkind, go away
Hey man, I can't take you this time, no way
Hey man, droogie don't crash here
There's only room for one and here she comes, here she comes"


MEANING: He won’t let his friend hang out with him or stay over, in order to make room for his Suffragette girlfriend; she's basically squeezing Henry out of the guy's life.


"Oh hit me!
I'm back on Suffragette City, I'm back on Suffragette City
Ooo, Sufraggete city, ooo, Suffragette City
Oooh-how, Sufragette City, oooh-how, Sufragette City, oooh-how
Sufragette
Ohhh, Wham Bam Thank You Ma'am!

MEANING: Sex with his Suffragette girlfriend.


In essence, "Suffragettes" at college would simply use sexual liberation to control and manipulate their boyfriends into killing their dreams and friendships, with the promise of easy sex.

This song is obviously about a college student who’s pussy-whipped by a Suffragette (i.e. liberated) girlfriend, who is thus freely sexual but also very demanding.

LYRICS:

“Hey man, oh leave me alone you know
Hey man, oh Henry, get off the phone, I gotta
Hey man, I gotta straighten my face
This mellow thighed chick just put my spine out of place”

MEANING: He’s become spineless for the sake of sex, and thus he’s shutting out his friend Henry.

”Hey man, my schooldays insane
Hey man, my work's down the drain
Hey man, well she's a total blam-blam
She said she had to squeeze it but she... then she...”

MEANING: His liberated girlfriend is ruining his life with her demands, but she puts out freely so he puts up with it.

Oh don't lean on me man, cause you can't afford the ticket
I'm back on Suffragette City
Oh don't lean on me man
Cause you ain't got time to check it
You know my Suffragette City
Is outta sight...she's all right

MEANING: He’s whipped, i.e. she's controlling him with sex, over his friends

Oh hit me!
I'm back on Suffragette City, I'm back on Suffragette City
Ooo, Sufraggete city, ooo, Suffragette City
Oooh-how, Sufragette City, oooh-how, Sufragette City, oooh-how
Sufragette

Ohhh, Wham Bam Thank You Ma'am!
