Spin the Bottle Lyrics
Spin the bottle
He's a movie star, only drives rented cars.
Met him in a bar, said "I know who you are."
Took him to my party as the games were starting.
Bottle's on the ground, are you ready now?
When it comes to me, I'm gonna be ready.
It's my turn in a minute, gonna put my message in it.
Five minutes in the closet with you.
He's in a bunch of movies, really stupid movies.
It's not entirely his fault, he can't control it all.
I am not afraid, I can hardly wait.
Truth or dare, I don't care, tell the truth I dare you.
When it comes around, when it comes around,
When it comes around, when it comes around.
Do you feel it too, what I feel for you?
If it was just us, would you do what I do?
Doo-doo-doo-doo. Doo-doo-doo-doo.
Doo-doo-doo-doo. Doo-doo-doo-doo.
Everybody's watching. Everybody's looking.
She's such a sucker. He don't want to fuck her.
He is gonnna kiss me, if he doesn't miss me.
I am ready for it now. Already on the ground.
Five minutes in the closet with you.
Oooh! Five minutes in the closet with you.
Spin it 'round again X8
Met him in a bar, said "I know who you are."
Took him to my party as the games were starting.
Bottle's on the ground, are you ready now?
When it comes to me, I'm gonna be ready.
It's my turn in a minute, gonna put my message in it.
Five minutes in the closet with you.
It's not entirely his fault, he can't control it all.
I am not afraid, I can hardly wait.
Truth or dare, I don't care, tell the truth I dare you.
When it comes around, when it comes around.
Do you feel it too, what I feel for you?
If it was just us, would you do what I do?
Doo-doo-doo-doo. Doo-doo-doo-doo.
Doo-doo-doo-doo. Doo-doo-doo-doo.
She's such a sucker. He don't want to fuck her.
He is gonnna kiss me, if he doesn't miss me.
I am ready for it now. Already on the ground.
Five minutes in the closet with you.
Oooh! Five minutes in the closet with you.

a friend once told me the cutesy-cutesy vibe of the song reminded her of me. heh :D
this song reminds me of the feverish feelings of childhood crushes.
such a great "tribute" to all those highschool crushes-things, it's really a nice song.
i'm going to get down
in this moment from colombia
i love this song but i dont understand why, if it is from an adult perspective (met him in a bar....was in a bunch of movies), they're playing games like truth or dare and spin the bottle? Os is purely metaphorical?
'reality bites' soundtrack 1994.... memories.... ^_^
@lichka plus it is a rad song style.... not that i am good at music theory.... hehe.. ^_^

I know Reality Bites is supposedly not an objectively “good” film but there’s moments in it that immediately transport me back to that time, one of which is the scene when Spin The Bottle is playing in the background. I’m a man (as everybody has noted the song is “girly”) and to me this is one of the defining songs of the early 90s.
In the Book Of Rock Lists (2nd ed.) Juliana Hatfield is called the “least liberated female ever” and a list of her quotes follows - possibly out of context - and it’s kinda funny, although I think her opinions (if they are in fact her opinions) are interesting counterpoint to the riot girl and generally “feminist” attitudes of both male and female artists of that time.
Lyrics are pretty self-explanatory. She meets a guy, an actor (only in stupid movies, probably because he is still young) who she knows of, in a bar, and she's got the hots for him, and she takes him to a party. And they are playing games at the party like spin the bottle, truth or dare, and seven (five?) minutes in heaven. I would have to guess the crowd at this party is college age (18-22) like I was when this song came out.
