Lying Is the Most Fun a Girl Can Have Without Taking Her Clothes Off

Natalie Portman says the words "Lying is the most fun a girl can have without taking her clothes off, but it's better if you do." in the movie "Closer" to Clive Owen's character. The movie deals with Portman, Owen, Julia Roberts, and Jude Laws characters all sleeping around, lying, cheating, and so on to one another. Jude Law publishes a book titled "The Aquarium". Julia Roberts and Clive Owen meet in an aquarium. This song has alot of influence from the movie, based on the music video/fish tank heads. You should check it out if you're a fan of this song.

It's about a guy whose girlfriend cheated on him.

'Then think of what you did And how I hope to God he was worth it. When the lights are dim and your heart is racing as your fingers touch his skin.'

He's asking if it was worth it to cheat on him. He thinks she'll never have someone better than him, and she had him, until she cheated on him.

'I've got more wit, a better kiss, a hotter touch, a better fuck Than any boy you'll ever meet, sweetie you had me Girl I was it, look past the sweat, a better love deserving of Exchanging body heat in the passenger seat? No, no, no, you know it will always just be me'

He's asking her to look past the testoserone. Past the moment, at the long-run. Was this boy she cheated on him with really more worthy of having sex with her than the narrator? No. She'll always love the narrator, and she's blown it.

'Let's get these teen hearts beating. Faster, faster'- talking about the thrills of sex.. and the fear of getting caught making their hearts beat faster.

'Testosterone boys and harlequin girls'- boys controlled by their lust, and girls who are fools. He's making a general statement about boys who are only after sex, and the girls who are made to look like idiots, because they have sex with the boys. (Eg the girl the narrator was with is made to look stupid, beause she sacrificed her perfect relationship for sex with this boy who only wanted to use her for the thrill of it).

'Will you dance to this beat, and hold a lover close?'- Will you go the same root as i'm describing?

Then he talks about the guilt that comes after the cheating...

'Oh now I do recall, we were just getting to the part Where the shock sets in, and the stomach acid finds a new way to make you get sick.'

'Now let's not get selfish' is ironic, since the girl has been selfish by having another lover.

I've got more wit A better kiss A hotter touch A better fuck Than any boy you'll ever meet. Sweetie you had me.

whats not to love about this song?! ITS FREAKING AMAZING! as for the meaning i think its pretty straight forward... he wants his girlie back... and clearly they had hot sex.

Oh now I do recall, we were just getting to the part Where the shock sets in, and the stomach acid finds a new way to make you get sick I hope you didn't expect that you'd get all of the attention Now let's not get selfish Did you really think I’d let you kill this chorus?"

This part is like him telling her no when she tries to come back or feels bad about what's going on. I think the song in general is like "Hey, you messed up and you're not getting me back."

"So testosterone boys and harlequin girls Will you dance to this beat, and hold a lover close? So testosterone boys and harlequin girls Will you dance to this beat, and hold a lover close?"

I think this is like advice.. saying to stick by who you're with. A lot of people make the mistake of doing something dumb and then later realizing what they had before was a lot better, so maybe he's saying not to do what his girl did and take the relationship for granted.

In general the song is him shutting her down, and then telling everyone else not to mess it up either.

from what I can gather its a guy whispering something into this girl's ear, saying how he was so good for her, but its over (is it still that makes you sweat) its probably refering to sex, with the shaking, and the body heat reference.

in the second verse they have reached the pregnancy stage (and the stomach acid finds a new way of making you sick I hope you didn't expect to get all of the attention)

though I'll agree that testosterone refers to the raging sex drive the guy has and harlequin probably to the cliche romances.

Actually I think it all falls back to the movie Closer. You will have to have seen the movie to understand what I saying. But if you watch you will see that Anna and Larry get married even though she is having an affair with Dan which leads us back to "I write sins not tragedies" where there is a wedding but the bride is a whore. Then after one year of marriage Anna leaves Larry for Dan, and Larry is devastated and says that he is better than Dan (lying is the most...). And after that, Larry hits a strip club and is practilly begging Alice(stripper) for her to love him, and says he loves her, but actually he is FAKING it, he loves Anna. And also the obvious song titles which are quotes from the moive except for I write sins.... (:

She cheated on him. He's just telling her all that she is missing out on by treating him like crap.

Her hormones and need for romance, the kind of romance that doesn't last, but feels good, caused her to cheat. And it's her fault that she lost him because of it.

awesome song to an awesomer quote to the awesomest movie.

yeah.

wat movie is this song from?
