Harder You Get Lyrics

You're digging deeper
Love is a creeper
I know the reaper on a first name basis
It ain't Steven
It isn't Adam
I got some apples, if you want them you can grab them


And what I really wanna do tonight is toughen you up

The harder you get
The harder I sweat
Now I'm too wet
To want it all
Beating my trunk
The faster you're done
Can't have one
You want them all

Hell is my heaven
A loaded weapon
Don't point that thing at me unless you plan to shoot
My room is darker
Than any color
I'm not your baby and I'll never be your mother

And what I really wanna do tonight is toughen you up

The harder you get
The harder I sweat
Now I'm too wet
To want it all
Beating my trunk
Faster, you're done
Can't have one
You want them all

You're sensitive to light
We're conjuring the night
You stand up with pride
Attempting to walk
You won't stabilize
Of what's become a life
Stop crying like a child
You got what you want!

You got what you want
And what I really wanna do tonight
Is toughen you up

The harder you get
The harder I sweat
Now I'm too wet
To want it all
Beating my trunk
Faster, you're done
Can't have one
You want them all

The one thing I hear is penises... and erections.

This is obviously about a night of long, intense sex, probably from the perspective of a bottom. One of my favorite lyrics are ''Can't have one, you want them all'', probably referring to his lover that wants him to have multiple orgasms.

Oooh, one of my favorites on this album. Love the Christian dogma references throughout... but especially enjoy the reference to the conservative "Its Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve" bull$hit in the beginning. Delicious!

Definitely from the point of view of the bottom, but the best part is ultimately they have the power in this little scenario... "Stop crying like a child, you get what you want" is just such a powerful line. Basically, "you signed up for it, now give me what I want" sort of thing.

Even though I'm female, I use this in my burlesque show. Mmmm...

And that went through twice, lovely. Make that three times, I suppose.
