Oh!

Sleater-Kinney

If you're tired of the big so so
Get yourself into some self-control
Play the game by putting on the brakes
Slow down and make less mistakes

Nobody lingers like your hands on my heart
Nobody figures like you figured me out
I would be lying if i didn't say to you
No One comes close don't worry you got it!
(Theres fire if you want it let me know,
I'm sick and I'm tired of letting go)

The Way I feel when you call my name
Makes me go crazy to sane
The way I feel when you're close to me
Finally not drifting out to sea

It's in all in my pocket
I don't mind i don't mind i don't mind
I call it, my rocket
Come a little closer, ? hit the one go sane ?

Come on now I wish you would
I'm the one who makes you feel so good
Never mind those things they say
They don't know that I'm here to stay

    General Commentlol whoah. now that i see its about masturbation it makes sense.

    but what about "Nobody lingers like your hands on my heart...No one comes close don't worry you got it!"?
    how could that tie into masturbation? unless she's just telling her boyfriend "it's okay, i love you, not my vibrator" or something?

    General Commenthmm. whatever happened to the part of the song that goes 'it's all in my pocket. i don't mind... i don't mind...' etc. ? it's not in the lyrics above. i'm a little confused.

    also, this is an awesome song. and an awesome album. everyone should buy it. immediately.

    General CommentYeah, those lyrics do seem a little messed up. Anyway, I've always thought this song was about masturbation and female sexual liberation -- or something.

    General Commenti have nowhere to post this. but how do you submit lyrics? because somebody really needs to submit Combat Rock. unless they have and i'm just completely missing it.

    General Commentthis song reminds me of myself a few months ago when I had a crazy crush on this guy. the masturbation theory is very interesting though, never really thought of that.

    General Commenthow could you not think that this song is about masturbation??? i mean, i could be wrong, but i thought it was pretty obvious.

    General CommentHuh? I didn't think of masturbation either. I thought of a relationship. It seems that sleater-Kinney seems to fall real deep into relationships, like in "Burn, Don't Freeze" and others...
