Love in a Trashcan Lyrics
If you touch that girl, you know it's okay
People say she's a whore anyway
I think she looks like a nice vamp
Looking for love in a trashcan
If you kiss that girl, you won't be caught dead
She's the coolest girl you think you ever met
I think she fits right into my life
On the road 'til the end of time
On the road 'til the end of time
Now the time is right, and you feel the need
To go down low and receive a treat
The jukebox churns out songs about sex
Come on baby, you're my best fix
Come on baby, you're my best fix
Love, love in a trashcan
Love, love in a trashcan
People say she's a whore anyway
I think she looks like a nice vamp
Looking for love in a trashcan
She's the coolest girl you think you ever met
I think she fits right into my life
On the road 'til the end of time
On the road 'til the end of time
To go down low and receive a treat
The jukebox churns out songs about sex
Come on baby, you're my best fix
Come on baby, you're my best fix
Love, love in a trashcan

I saw an interview with the Raveonettes once where the interviewer asks what this song is about - Sune just answers: "groupies" .. So I guess that what he is trying to say is that groupies are his fix when touring (back then, not anymore I assume) and describing groupies and people's thoughts of them.. And by saying: "If you touch that girl You know it's okay People say she's a whore anyway" he kind of justifies that these girls are just a fix for him, not love, just sex.
"If you touch that girl, you know it's okay People say she's a whore anyway"
God..I love that line.
the guitar solo in this song sounds like the kinks so much. I love this song also.
love this song ... the guitar solo between 1:50 and 2:20 its out of this world!!
I really like the video for this song. It's so vintage and everything....with a cool kind of sixties/fifties kind of feel to it. Much like the guitar part in the song.
I love the retro sound of the song...
sune's guitar is indeed very kink-esque, the overall feel of this album is genius... each song has a different theme, this one for example, is about the better-than-nothing feeling of hooking up with a harlot.
I love this song. To me, this song is about how love and sex is so wasted on things like prostitution and one night stands and shit.
it's very nice song....i like the guitar, especially. my opinion:sex isn't judged based on who have it. it may be a whore, a bitch, whatever,it's still sex. have fun
the guitar in this song... wooooooooo!!!! please give me more :P
