I Gotcha

"He's driving around with a cop in his car!"

man, i've totally been there. (the tease, not the cop in the trunk)

Almost too creepy to play for other than dark humor or irony.

The narrator of the song felt a connection with a girl in a relationship she knew was doomed. She rejected his advances at the time, asking him to wait until she officially broke it off, promising they could be together then. It's possible he read more into her words than she actually said, or she was leading him on, or any number of possibilities, but for whatever reason, once it was done she got cold feet and started avoiding him.

He manages to confront her and declares that she owes him her affections because of her promise. He demands it, like a lender collecting a debt.

On one level, a catchy, funky song invoking "the chase" of an amorous man pursuing a reluctant woman. But I think that the songwriter is intentionally deconstructing it, revealing a frighteningly predatory attitude. The man's gone Yandere, which is what the song is really about.

It's about a dick-teasing woman.

A pimp threatening one of his girls for what she owes him of the intake. A coked-up vicious pimp in 1970's fur coat and platform shoes with a big hat.A nasty song. Used to scare me in 5th grade whenever it came on. I though a spooky old witch-doctor from deepest jungles of the Congo was going to jump out of the radio and grab me....
