Diggin' Your Scene Lyrics

Tell me why we're all gluttons for pain
The girl is totally insane
She doesn't know the meaning of tame
Still I can't put out the flame

Hey hey, I wanna play on the team that you despise
Every day a new disguise
Every night a Halloween
She says keep the motor runnin' man
Like I was some machine

And you can talk talk but I'm keepin' her stock
I wouldn't ever change a thing
(Chorus)
Why fight, you've got me roped and tied
I hit your baited line
I'm so diggin' your scene
I said you're playing with my head
I could split instead
I'm so digging your scene

On you like a hungry tick
Like a junkie knows he oughta kick
But I don't want to be dope sick
So I scramble for a fix

Voodoo and sorcery too, I can't shake your freaky spell
(Chorus)

Can anybody tell me why we're Springer bound
Why we feel so up when we're kept down
On a short leash behind a barbed wire fence
With no chance of parole, on a life sentence!

My friends tell me I should run
They say they think she's got a gun
But that just only turns me on
Right on, right on, right on...

Hey hey, I wanna play for the team that you despise
(Chorus)
Don't change, I love that you're deranged
You've got me in a cage
I'm so diggin' your scene
I said you're playing with my head
I could split instead
I'm so digging your scene.

Two interpretations for this fast, kickass song. 1, its about a normal everyday guy who has a girlfriend who's a wild party girl and she is so out there that she takes him on all these adventures, partying, breaking the law, kinky sex, etc. Think Livin' La Vida Loca by Ricky Martin. 2, its about a gay couple. the other guy is a party guy who crossdresses and the singer singing about him is once again your normal everyday guy. Some lines that made me consider it was about a drag queen rather than a girl: "Diggin your scene" (the "gay scene"?) "Hey hey, I wanna play on the team that you despise" (if this doesn't mean "playing for the other team" I don't know what this line means), "Every day a new disguise, every night a Halloween" (why would you refer to your lady dressing up a "disguise", this is otherwise unclear, also how would her dressing up for a night out be like it being Halloween? is she wearing goth attire or dressing like a ghoul or something? wouldn't calling her dressing up a disguise or saying it must be Halloween a bit rude? or maybe these two lines are alluding to a drag queen dressing up!), and lastly the line "They say they think she’s got a gun"...get it. Whatever the case, whatever this song is about, I'll always love it. I used to run to it, its 143bpm.

My Interpretation

@Foggypebble2 - Six years on, this is an Interesting comment to me. On the other hand, what if a cigar is a cigar and a gun is just a gun. Interesting comment regardless.
