Show Me What Your Lights Mean Lyrics
I was on the sideline taking one for the team
Suddenly she emerged from steam
Licking on her pink ice cream
And when I heard the sound of the siren start to scream
I was blinded by her death ray beam
From the heavy metal sex regime
Yeah
And I don't want to be the one still around
Looking lonely staring at the ground
Twisted gazing like a knife
And you see how it feels
And I need you to know are you imagined or real?
Or somewhere in between
Oh
I wanna dirty you up some and then I want to lick you clean
Show me what your lights mean
Show me what your lights mean
I wanna dirty you up some and then I want to lick you clean
Show me what your lights mean
Show me what your lights mean
Cause your lights don't tell me what my mood should be
But they sure might illuminate my fantasy
Asking everyone I know what's wrong with this picture
How come it taste so good when it's such a rotten mixture
It's not Mona LIsa
But I'm willing to get flexible
I wanna dirty you up some and then I want to lick you clean
Show me what your lights mean
Show me what your lights mean
I wanna dirty you up some and then I want to lick you clean
Show me what your lights mean
Show me what your lights mean
Her lights freeze me in place
Her lights feel like outer space
Her lights freeze me in place
Her lights seem like outer space
Her lights freeze
Suddenly she emerged from steam
Licking on her pink ice cream
I was blinded by her death ray beam
From the heavy metal sex regime
Yeah
Looking lonely staring at the ground
Twisted gazing like a knife
And you see how it feels
And I need you to know are you imagined or real?
Or somewhere in between
Oh
Show me what your lights mean
Show me what your lights mean
I wanna dirty you up some and then I want to lick you clean
Show me what your lights mean
Show me what your lights mean
But they sure might illuminate my fantasy
Asking everyone I know what's wrong with this picture
How come it taste so good when it's such a rotten mixture
It's not Mona LIsa
But I'm willing to get flexible
Show me what your lights mean
Show me what your lights mean
I wanna dirty you up some and then I want to lick you clean
Show me what your lights mean
Show me what your lights mean
Her lights feel like outer space
Her lights freeze me in place
Her lights seem like outer space
Her lights freeze

"It is the story of a Friday night football game in West, Texas--Odessa, TX. And from out of nowhere... a fifty foot woman from outer space comes and vaporizes the coaches and the players and the rapists... Using her eyes. She converts the cheerleader squad into a lesbian squadron. And all this is told from the perspective of the waterboy."
-DIck Valentine's intro to this song at a show in Toledo (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOOaq9KIrLU)
It's about a guy that meets a girl he finds gorgeous, but can't really figure her out. He knows she's the one, but doesn't know how to act around her or what she's thinking. He's also not sure why someone like her is interested in him.
That's emphasized here:
"Asking everyone I know what's wrong with this picture How come it taste so good when it's such a rotten mixture It's not a visa But I'm willing to get flexible"
He's knows there's something wrong with the fact that she's with him. But can't figure it out and she's so perfect he can't say no.
Not sure what the visa line is suppose to mean (if that's correct). Maybe she doesn't have a visa and is using him to get citizenship, but that isn't really represented anywhere else in the song.
Another important aspect is that the girl is probably no good for the narrator.
"And when I heard the sound of the siren start to scream I was blinded by her death ray beam From the heavy metal sex regime"
He's getting signs that he should not mess around with her, because it will likely end bad. But he's blinded by her "death ray beam" light, which is based in her sexuality. She's too hot for him to avoid her.
@hornytheclown I don't think Electric Six lyrics have ever been so "deep." Occam's razor.

@hornytheclown Nah, I believe Dick on this one. You'll hear lots of references to 80s action films in his lyrics, as well as "geeky" sci fi, superhero, fantasy, D&D, etc.

@hornytheclown Sometimes a song is just what it says it is. Tyler is a Sci/Fi watching, D&D playing geek, and in this case, it's more of a Sci Fi short story than anything "deep."
