| Little Feat – Skin It Back Lyrics | 6 years ago |
|
A lot of Feat's songs written before Lowell George's death are focused on hookers. Fat Man in the Bathtub, Dixie Chicken and Skin It Back are 3 prime examples. There are several others as well, but the point I'm making is this is obviously a song that relates to an impending sexual encounter. The lyric that says, "I'm wonderin' just how I'm gonna tell it to you" sounds like someone who is very embarrassed to ask for something. The rest of the lyrics seem to back up the claim of multiple sex partners, for example: "A thief of love, my business is the street I be shakin' 'em down In old Colorado Texas she's nice, but Georgia's oh so sweet Steal away with me darlin' your lovin' just can't be beat". Here's a dude who's 'stealing' sex in 3 states and probably has to confront the very sticky proposition of telling another partner about how much better a blow job feels when the foreskin is pushed back on his uncircumcised penis. The song is clearly about embarrassment about asking for that. Call me a moron but it doesn't look like the song writer has any problem 'getting it done', 'rolling up his sleeves' or 'going for it' He's getting plenty, but is he shy when it comes to asking for some 'special considerations': "Somethin' real, somethin' to feel". Sorry you southern boys, you just ain't listenin' to the lyrics. |
