Hardly Wait Lyrics

Lyric discussion by CaffeineWhore 

Cover art for Hardly Wait lyrics by PJ Harvey

This song is clearly about her lack of yearning and then a resurgance of her appetite. Now, you can't listen to the song and read the lyrics without knowing it's about sex, but it's very much about food as well. I think the comments about anorexia and the long awaited sexual act are BOTH correct; the feelings are so similiar it's easy to confuse the two. If you talk to any anorexic, they'll often bring up sex, whether they don't have it, don't like to be touched, haven't had sex in a noticable amount of time, etc. Let's remember, 'Sleeping Beauty' was awaiting a kiss and it was an apple that caused her eyes to close.

You know i also could have sworn it was "Hey Romeo make my water break." Not very hard to imagine with the Peejster. I'l have to listen to it again. "Make my world as great" doesn't have her usual poetic flow or passive/angry resonance. I remain doubtful as to it's veracity.
