Who Scared You Lyrics

Who scared you
Why were you born, my babe.

In two-time's arms
With all of your charms, my love.

Why were you born
Just to play with me,
To freak out
Or to be beautiful, my dear?

Load your head,
Blow it up.
Feeling good, baby.

Load your head,
blow it up.
Feeling good, baby.
Ah.

Well my room is so cold,
You know you don't have to go, my babe.
And if you want it up right,
I'm gonna love you tonight, my love.

Well I'm glad that we came,
I hope you're feeling the same.
Who scared you
And why were you born,
Please stay.

I see a rider
Coming down the road.
Got a virgin
Carrying a heavy load.
One sack of silver,
And one bag of gold.

How about...

Well, my room is so cold You know you don't have to go And if you warm it up right I'm gonna love you tonight, my love

because "if you want it up right" just... doesn't sound right

Yea I always thought he was saying "warm it up right". It makes more sense.

This song is about Jim\'s frustration with his girlfriend Pam\'s heroin addiction. \nWho Scared You is about Pam\'s fear of a traditional relationship and why she runs to do drugs. The song is about Jim trying to convince Pam to stay the night. Would she rather "freak out or to be beautiful, my dear?"\n\nThe chorus about shooting up heroin.\n"Load your head, blow it up, feeling good, baby" Jim sings it in a mocking manner. \n\nJim manages to convince Pam to have stay and have sex, "Well, I\'m glad that we came, I hope you\'re feeling the same" but Pam gets up to leave as soon as it over. Jim asks her to "Please" stay but in the window coming down the road Jim sees "I see your rider coming down the road\nGot a burden, carrying a heavy load\nOne sack of silver and one bag of gold" which about her leaving to go spend her money on heroin, her addiction being the heavy load or burden. \n\n- B.W.

title from a letter that william burroughs had written to allen ginsberg

could the girl maybe have been hurt in some way by a boyfriend and now she is cheating on him with Jim. Thats kinda what I got out of "In two-times arms, with all of your charms..." Well, it sounds more like she went over there to hang and do some drugs, and Jim is trying to convince her to stay the night.

What I have trouble understanding is the last part, but it could just be another drug reference. "One sack of silver and one bag of gold" maybe making a reference to money and a bag of something?
