Stay With Me Lyrics

Lyric discussion by roryjones 

Cover art for Stay With Me lyrics by Faces, The

The tune and instrumentation rock on this song, but the lyrics are cruel and hateful. The men who wrote this song obviously hate women. I've woken up a few times next to someone I didn't necessarily want to have a long term relationship with, but I didn't feel the need to degrade or abuse the person. BTW, I've seen Faces faces, and they definitely "got nothing to laugh about" either.

My Opinion

@roryjones - You do realize that he was upfront about his intentions, right? Hateful? How?: The guy is a pig, he tells the woman he's a pig, he tells the woman what to expect from him, and in this way he's more honest than 90% of the pigs- male OR female - in this piggy world. So either accept the song for what it is or leave it alone. After all, songs about female pigs who talk in the same damn way get celebrated while male pigs get eaten alive...or cured into bacon. PS: I recommend you read the much subtler lyrics of Queen's...
