Strange Desire Lyrics
Ohhh, Ohhhh, Ohhhhhhh
Ohhh, Ohhhh, Ohhhhhhh
I don't wanna go to hell, but if I do
It'll be 'cuz of you
If your man gonna make mistakes
Until he hits the breaks
My heart's on fire, with a strange desire, Yeah
Ohhh, Ohhhh, Ohhhhhhh
Ohhh, Ohhhh, Ohhhhhhh
All those birds on the wire
Are gonna say I'm a liar
But we all know, in the end
That you never were my friend
My heart's on fire, with a strange desire
Ohhh, Ohhhh, Ohhhhhhh
It'll be 'cuz of you
If your man gonna make mistakes
Until he hits the breaks
Ohhh, Ohhhh, Ohhhhhhh
Are gonna say I'm a liar
But we all know, in the end
That you never were my friend

it just means you try to grow up and have a decent relationship... but damn it you have a 'strange desire' i think it's about cheating
i'm a young gay Ohioan, been bluesin to BKs for a decade i always did get a gay vibe from the lyrics @jlcummins, but just cuz i wanted to :)
I think it goes...
"any young man gonna make mistakes ... they never were my friends"
I think it's about boy love, bi-curiosity in the case of the black keys. "birds" is a euphemism for women, as used in Norwegian Wood (this bird has flown) by the Beatles. All those women he's been with would never have known he was bisexual. i think it's about natural, sexual experimentation.
I agree with the person below.
I think the song's about cheating... At least it feels like it.
Fuck the keys for not allowing your lyrics on here. Magic potion was your last good album. You sound like little bitches these days. Stay golden pony boy
