Personal Space Invader

Sugar Ray

Sometimes I just want to be left alone
Move your big head
It's my way go and get your own

I don't care about the things you do
I don't care about the things you do
I don't care about the things you do
I don't care about, I don't care about
All my friends can't relate
No time off to hesitate
To my head touch my face
Two steps back you're in my space
One more impossible to position
Got the high score
Forgot to put the letterage

I don't know about the things you do
I don't know about the things you do
I don't know about the things you know about
The things I know about the things you do
All my friends can't relate
No time off to hesitate
Feel my head touch my face
Two steps back you're in my space

The valeting that we make
Or the illegal pictures on the net
Remember how we told you well
And that your playground is a gate to hell
I don't know about the things you do
I don't know about the things you do
I don't know about the things you do
I don't know care about
All my friends can't relate
No time off to hesitate
Feel my head touch my face
Two steps back you're in my space
You stink
(I don't know about the things you do)
Touching me
(I don't know about the things you do)
Can you say

I don't care about the things you do
(Sometimes)
I don't care about the things you do
(I just want to be left alone)
I don't care about the things you do
(Move your big head)
I don't care about the things you do
(It's my way go and get your own)
I don't care about, I don't care about
All my friends can't relate
No time off to hesitate
Feel my head touch my face
Two steps back you're in my space
Personal space invader
Personal space invader
Strange how you find out later
Personal space invader

    General Commentcorrections - instead of "say she ate", it should be "satiate" (meaning never satisfied), so the lyric reads "You want more, impossible to satiate". Also, "gates of hell" should be "gate to hell".

    General CommentI think this song is about the man (authority) always being in the way, never leaving you alone, invading your space. Whether your parents, junior high principal, the cops, or the president, the man is trying to invade your space.
    The background voice that says "remember how we taught you well" and stuff like that symbolizes the man. When he says "remember how we taught you well" I think he is refering to teachers and principals, who are usually a kids first authority figure after parents, and usually this authority figure is looked back on more negatively than other figures.
    When he says "your playground is the gate to Hell" I think he is refering to drugs or masturbation. Some people find fun in those things, and the man usually tries to supress those things.
    Maybe I'm reading too far into things, I don't know. When I first heard the song, I was pretty young and thought that it was about a stalker, invading Sugar Ray's personal space. I don't think that's it though.
