its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
They know attention to obedience
The kids and wishes fix and forgotten for my self defence
We all want to fuck ourselves and rape the world
So the odds of the cops will prevail
And vanity, not bored, not love
Oh no, they can't leave it alone
Oh no, we can't leave it alone
Because a negative sex was born into a bloodline
The negative sex is powerful in our time
Show a man from examp? the alternative
It's all ammunition for the gender bend and the bedroom twist
They say that the fashion's just not feminist
But the sweet and the turn-on sits in the laps of the girls with the balls and the hits
Oh no, they can't leave it alone
Oh no, we can't leave it alone
Because the negative sex was born into a bloodline
The negative sex is powerful in our time
The negative sex was born into a bloodline
The negative sex is powerful in our time
Sex for a lifetime
Sex for a lifetime
Sex for a lifetime
The kids and wishes fix and forgotten for my self defence
We all want to fuck ourselves and rape the world
So the odds of the cops will prevail
And vanity, not bored, not love
Oh no, they can't leave it alone
Oh no, we can't leave it alone
Because a negative sex was born into a bloodline
The negative sex is powerful in our time
Show a man from examp? the alternative
It's all ammunition for the gender bend and the bedroom twist
They say that the fashion's just not feminist
But the sweet and the turn-on sits in the laps of the girls with the balls and the hits
Oh no, they can't leave it alone
Oh no, we can't leave it alone
Because the negative sex was born into a bloodline
The negative sex is powerful in our time
The negative sex was born into a bloodline
The negative sex is powerful in our time
Sex for a lifetime
Sex for a lifetime
Sex for a lifetime

He certainly did earn that reputation.

Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?

The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
It sounds like he's saying "Pay no attention" at the beginning, not "they know attention". I could be wrong, but that's what it sounds like.
