I'm rich
Like a hot noise
Rich rich rich
I'll take you out, boy
So stuck up
I wish you'd stick in to me
Flesh ripped off
Raw

Hey!
Turnin' it
Beatin' no beat
The walls are always speakin'
No want no want no want no speakin' at all

She slipped
Down a rot drink
Unzipped
She doesn't exist
So unloved
I took 'em standin' up
So stuck up
Raw

I'm rich
Like a hot noise
Rich rich rich
I'll take you out, boy
I'll take you out, boy

Hey!
Turnin' it
Beatin' no beat
The walls are always speakin'
No want no want no want no speakin' at all
Turnin' it
Beatin' no beat
The walls are always speakin'
No want no want no want no speakin' at all

(Rich rich rich rich rich)
(Rich rich rich rich rich rich)
(Rich rich rich rich rich rich)
(Rich rich rich rich rich rich)

Rich rich rich rich rich rich
Rich rich rich rich rich rich
Rich rich rich rich rich rich

    It's sex. It's the kind of song that sucks the virginity right out of you.

    Really, I think that this song is not really about sex or date rape at all. In fact, I think it is about the cynicism of being rich. I think about how money gets wasted on young rich/ spoiled/ jaded people... such as Paris Hilton. Her only talent is high class hooking ( and she isn't very good at it, according to the T.V.)

    it's about fucking around, it's a dirty debased sexy sexy song. "Won't you stick it to me" "I'll take you out, boy" "slipped down a rot drink" as well...she might have been spiked, dateraped, or whatever at this point ""unzipped, she doesn't exist" it's happening, she's too out of it on it all. "took it standing up," she doesn't really seem to care. It's still a very sexual song. Being a dirty ho, loving it. Raaawr indeed.

While the obvious connections with suicide or alcoholism could be drawn easily, more subtly this song could be about someone who views the world through a negative lens constantly and how as much as the writer tries to show the beauty in the world, this person refuses to see it. It's one or another between the rope and the bottle. There is no good option for this person. They can't see it. Skiba sings it in a kind of exasperated way like He's tired of hearing this negative view constantly and just allowing that person to continue feeling the way they feel knowing he can't do anything about it. You can hear it when he says maybe you're a vampire.

I believe this is another amazingly on point and nuanced commentary on the insanity that follows emotionally abusive relationships. The abuser has no anxieties, no emotional pain, or salience/memory for that matter, so the survivor appears to be the crazy one, obsessed with the abuse and that buzzword that seems to ignite arguments about diagnosing people without a degree, etc. funny how you say the words domestic violence, abuse, abuse survivor and boom the subject changes. Anyways, I especially relate to her midnights becoming afternoons, complex PTSD often leads to this phenomenon, whether due to purposeful sleep deprivation by the abuser, or just hyper vigilance associated with the PTSD, along with the fear of facing people, especially your loved ones, who Never actually understand, even if they try, because all they see is you, on fire, screaming about the arsonist that no one ever sees, and who has been spreading lies about your alleged mental instability, deceptive personality, etc. the whole time. While the last thing survivors need is more blame, our society supports a narrative that blames the objectively innocent party because the blatantly guilty party has spent their entire lives fabricating a persona and we’re just being human, and human psychology is quite counterintuitive especially in the context of trauma. Look at Amber Heard. Vilified and not believed, regardless of what any abuse survivor could recognize as a fellow survivor instantly. But Johnny depp is a malignant narcissist, a man, and wealthy as all get out. It’s sick.
