Oh! Lyrics

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 closer don't worry you got it!
(There's 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

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 closer don't worry you got it!
(There's fire if you want it let me know,
I'm sick and I'm tired of letting go)

It's 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 good
Never mind those things they say
They don’t know it but I’m here to stay

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 closer don't worry you got it!
(There's fire if you want it let me know,
I'm sick and I'm tired of letting go)

lol 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?

OK, i just wrote down all of these lyrics, and then I tried to submit them, but obviously they were already submitted. ahhh! Anyways, the new s-k album rocks.

hmm. 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.

Not to mention "I call it my rocket"... The lyrics arent in the lyric book either, and it kind of confused me too... any thoughts?

Cover art for Oh! lyrics by Sleater-Kinney

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

whoa. i never thought about it being about masterbating. wow, it all makes sense now. haha. good one... :D it's a damn good song anyhow. s-k rocks, i'm surprised there's not more comments for them...

i 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.

this 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.

Cover art for Oh! lyrics by Sleater-Kinney

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

Cover art for Oh! lyrics by Sleater-Kinney

Huh? 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...
