You toss in a word
And I'm your villain
I see the passion emerge
And I'm your villain
But serious
You're so serious
Oh, like a waiter
Hating the rich
But taking their tips
Oh, if I could laugh I'd love you
Oh, if I could smile at anything you said
We could be laughing lovers
I think you'd prefer to be miserable instead
If I could love I'd love you
Oh, if I could love like anybody else
Anybody else
Anybody else
I know what I am
And I'm your villain
Oh, no, I don't give a damn
If I'm your villain
'Cause serious
You're so serious
But I've got ready salted
Ready on your belly
If you wanna have fun
Yeah
See you later
Baby, see you later (see you later)
See you later
Baby, see you later (oh, yeah)
See you later
Baby, see you later (see you later)
See you later
Baby, see you later (oh, yeah)
See you later
Baby, see you later (see you later)
See you later
Baby, see you later (oh, yeah)
And I'm your villain
I see the passion emerge
And I'm your villain
But serious
You're so serious
Oh, like a waiter
Hating the rich
But taking their tips
Oh, if I could laugh I'd love you
Oh, if I could smile at anything you said
We could be laughing lovers
I think you'd prefer to be miserable instead
If I could love I'd love you
Oh, if I could love like anybody else
Anybody else
Anybody else
I know what I am
And I'm your villain
Oh, no, I don't give a damn
If I'm your villain
'Cause serious
You're so serious
But I've got ready salted
Ready on your belly
If you wanna have fun
Yeah
See you later
Baby, see you later (see you later)
See you later
Baby, see you later (oh, yeah)
See you later
Baby, see you later (see you later)
See you later
Baby, see you later (oh, yeah)
See you later
Baby, see you later (see you later)
See you later
Baby, see you later (oh, yeah)

My take on this song is that there are two people who are completely attracted to each other, yet they "hate" each other. If they just gave into what's between them they could be happy, but for now they're going to be miserable and loathe one another. But they'll get together sooner or later.
Two words: Sexual tension.
"See you later, baby see you later" you really can't help but get up and jump around waving manically to this, well i can't
I first heard this song on the, er, Frank Skinner show. I only watched coz I knew Franz were on...! I loved the song, such a catchy riff
I think i was in the first audience this song was ever palyed to. It was at the portsmouth guildhall on the 23rd of October last year. Alex said something before he played it and i reeeally wished i'de listened to what he was saying! So now i dont have a clue what it's about! totally awsome song though
this song was originally titled "Blonde Ambition", coz of Bob, i think i read somewhere. but before they performed the first time, they changed it. poor Bob... :-P heh, on second thought, he probably asked them to change it...
Hehe, this song is awesome. Love the lyric: Like a waiter hating the rich But taking their tips About a disgruntled couple?
Just saw this song live yesterday, so awesome! Anyone know what the missing line is after "living lovers"? Think it has something to do with topless dancers..
Actual lyrics are:
You toss in a word I'm your villain I see the passion emerge I'm your villain But serious You're so serious Like a waiter Hating the rich But taking their tips If I could laugh I'd love you If I could smile at anything you said We could be laughing lovers I think you'd prefer to be miserable instead If I could love I'd love you If I could love like anybody else I know what I am I'm your villain I don't give a damn if I'm your villain Because serious You're so serious But I've got ready salted ready on your belly If you want to have fun See you later
Nice song. I think he's talking about a chick that's depressed or bored and thinks he's the only one who could make her life intresting. He knows this, but doesnt particularly care as she's too serious and miserable for him.
I'm almost sure the first part is about Bob. Especially with the fact that it was originally called "Blonde Ambition" after Michael's nickname for him. The waiter hating the rich but taking their tips and all that? Bob is the type to get really heated in debates about stuff. He's so serious. I think the "If I could laugh, I'd love you" is supposed to be him.
The last line, Alex said was just referencing something a girl once told him a date of hers did.
