Shoot Lyrics

Cover art for Shoot lyrics by Sonic Youth

She's asking her boyfriend for money and the car to go have an abortion but she doesn't want to tell him because she doesn't feel like she needs his permission. It sounds like a bad relationship. She asserts her adulthood with the lipstick and saying "I'm not a little girl and you sure are not my dad."

I'm not sure what the shoot shoot shoot shoot part is about. Is it literal shooting? I think she may be imagining shooting him ("vizualize").
