Diggin' Your Scene Lyrics

Two interpretations for this fast, kickass song. 1, its about a normal everyday guy who has a girlfriend who's a wild party girl and she is so out there that she takes him on all these adventures, partying, breaking the law, kinky sex, etc. Think Livin' La Vida Loca by Ricky Martin. 2, its about a gay couple. the other guy is a party guy who crossdresses and the singer singing about him is once again your normal everyday guy. Some lines that made me consider it was about a drag queen rather than a girl: "Diggin your scene" (the "gay scene"?) "Hey hey, I wanna play on the team that you despise" (if this doesn't mean "playing for the other team" I don't know what this line means), "Every day a new disguise, every night a Halloween" (why would you refer to your lady dressing up a "disguise", this is otherwise unclear, also how would her dressing up for a night out be like it being Halloween? is she wearing goth attire or dressing like a ghoul or something? wouldn't calling her dressing up a disguise or saying it must be Halloween a bit rude? or maybe these two lines are alluding to a drag queen dressing up!), and lastly the line "They say they think she’s got a gun"...get it. Whatever the case, whatever this song is about, I'll always love it. I used to run to it, its 143bpm.

My Interpretation

@Foggypebble2 - Six years on, this is an Interesting comment to me. On the other hand, what if a cigar is a cigar and a gun is just a gun. Interesting comment regardless.
