Save It For Somebody Else Lyrics

So kind of you to come round and testify
With your softly spoken alibi
You're so convinced that you're saving yourself
You should save it for somebody else
Save it for somebody else, mmh

Hood up, head down and just walk away
I already know what it is that you're gonna say
You know the truth is a much harder sell
Might as well save it for somebody else
Save it for somebody else
Save it for somebody else
Save it

Hood up, head down
Hood up, head down
Hood up, head down

Cover art for Save It For Somebody Else lyrics by Fink

He is speaking to his lover who happens to have many different lovers.

"So kind of you to come round and testify With your softly spoken alibi You're so convinced that you're saving yourself You should save it for somebody else Save it for somebody else, mmh"

++ This is the intimate moment where the deceiving lover comes to reassure him of no wrong-doing. The lover is saving herself(/hisself) because is some way there is a need for this person to love her, to satisfy any vanities or insecurities. He has figured it out and finished with the whole mess, thats why he advises his lover to go to one of her other fools.

"Hood up, head down Hood up, head down Hood up, head down"

++ He emphasizes this moment, described by imagery, because this is a very emotional moment. The deceiving lover, pained with guilt, wants to disappear. at least for a while.
