Wonder Why You Want Her Lyrics

Lost
In her face,
Caught
On the thought of a taste,
Sold
On the fantasy,
Bought,
For a price you can have a piece

Fresh
From the colour press,
The flesh
Of today’s princess,
Spread
From end to end,
Blue eyes
And perfect skin
Invite everyone in.

Do you ever wonder why you want her?
Does it even matter you can’t have her?
Even if you tried to it wouldn’t satisfy you
Trying to possess her can only depress you

Do you ever wonder why you want her?
Does it even matter you could never have her?
Even if you tried to it would never satisfy you
You’ll only want her stronger,
Long for longer

Cover art for Wonder Why You Want Her lyrics by Gotye

It seems as if he's talking about a harlot. "Sold on the fantasy,bought for a price you can have a piece."

Perhaps about pornography?

"Fresh From the colour press,"

It's a recognised fact that people tend to need more and more extreme pornography to get the same 'effect' after a while: "You’ll only want her stronger, /Long for longer"
