One More Fucking Time

Motörhead

All life is a mystery,
All things come to he who waits
All things just a twist of fate
It's just a state of mind
All your time is not your own
It's real hard to find out why
It's real hard to say good-bye
To move on down the line...

Both your eyes wide open
You see the shape I'm in
It wasn't of my choosing
It's only bones and skin
And I will plead no contest
If loving you's a crime
So go on and find me guilty
Just one more fucking time

All your life is in your head
All you dreams are in your sleep
And if your dreams are hid too deep
They're just a waste of time
When you try to chase the dream
You never seem to know the time
You never recognize the signs
And nothing's what it seems

Both your eyes wide open
You see the shape I'm in
It wasn't of my choosing
It's only bones and skin
And I will plead no contest
If loving you's a crime
So go on and find me guilty
Just one more fucking time

And if I would have been a bad man
You would have seen the good in me
You would have seen the other
The good man I could be
But since I am a good man
The same was all the same
Nothing I could do, nothing I could do

All life is a mystery,
All things pass you by in time
All things just a perfect crime
It's just the way we are
All instincts let you down
It's not a case of love in vain
It's not a case of love insane
It's enough to break your heart

Both your eyes wide open
You see the shape I'm in
It wasn't my idea
That I be the one to sin
And so all those years together
Weren't worth a fucking dime
So go on and find me guilty
Just one more fucking time
And so all our years together
Weren't worth a fucking dime
So go on and find me guilty
Just one more fucking time
And so all our years together
Weren't worth a fucking dime
So go on and find me guilty
Just one more fucking time

    Couldn't disagree with you more, he's clearly not at fault at all. I believe it's because he'd done nothing wrong but loved her too much, many women are scared by this and prefer the typical arsehole. This song completely describes my situation with my ex perfectly.

    My Interpretation
    This song really spoke to me when I was going through hard times, and my body was taking the punishment. I think of it exclusively as a body speaking to its lost and self-abusive mind. Maybe I'm just messed up in that way, but I think it fits pretty perfectly. I'm better now, but the meaning stuck. :-)

    to me i think this song is about how a guy is in a perfect relationship with this woman he really loves but regretfully has a one night stand. "if i was a bad man you would have seen the good in me" means that he's been the ideal partner and the relationship was taken for granted. he realises how stupid he has been and pleads to the woman to take him back cos he still loves her and has spent a long time with her.

    It might just be somme kind of love song, but about existence. The final hymn to life of a man who's teared apart by the fact he has to leave it. (Or i may be totally missing the point also)

    I think it's about after break up after long term relationship. When guy is confessing that he loved too much and gave quite too far much from himself and for that, even when he did whatever else, things which were just minor stuff in compare of, but on the end, he was totally devalued, ( all this year's together, werent worth..) even or because he was just too good, no bad guy kind of u lust in , so been fated to end up badly hurt and angry on the end, because even if he did whatever else, or been trying very hard not to love that much,.. But. looser is always who loves u more.

    I see this song highlighting some of the intrapersonal conversation regarding addiction. The idea of relationship is heavy as previously noted, but it takes a deeper meaning in saying well fuck it let's play into the addiction (I.e. sex, drugs, booze, whatever.). Face it, the dudes a rockstar. I believe he's playing into the role here, as he should, but it's his Intrapersonal agreement to the systemic self he has created. I think it's brilliant writing.

    I believe this song refers to a man who felt disposable at the end of a long relationship. The description fits with the average "good guy" who failed at preventing that his relationship turned cold as years past by. One day he woke up and realized it was over, even though he was a good man to his companion. The underlying thought is that maybe, just maybe, had he been an asshole but still a passionate lover, his companion would have looked at everything he could become one day, instead of looking at everything that he wasn't on present.

Sunglasses at Night
Corey Hart
In the 1980s, sunglasses were a common fashion for people who wanted to adopt a "tough guy" persona (note all the cop shows from that era -- Simon & Simon, Miami Vice, etc. -- where the lead characters wore shades). So I think this song is about a guy who wears shades as a way of hiding his insecurity after learning that his girlfriend is cheating on him. He's trying to pretend that he's a "tough guy" to hide the fact that his girlfriend's affair is disturbing him.

Shudder to Think
This song is timeless, and nearly 20 years after its creation, still possesses the mystique it did the first time i heard it ~1994. To me, at first blush, all those years ago, it had some kind of homo-erotic allure. The line "so that the others may do" tells of something which must be done for others to follow suit. It felt like like some kind of roxy-glam-pop invitation to sexual liberation. Upon further introspection I think the song may not have an intrinsic meaning, but simply represents a sort of "holding open the door" for people who otherwise might be affronted by this song/band's unusual style. I know, as a sort of armchair rock-historian, that there have been few bands so daring and so true to the sound that wanted to emerge from within, whether the creator wanted it or not. This band handled it with elegance and grace seldom, if ever, seen.
