So messed up, I want you here
In my room, I want you here
Now we're gonna be face-to-face
And I'll lay right down in my favorite place

And now I wanna be your dog
And now I wanna be your dog
And now I wanna be your dog

Well, come on

And now I'm ready to close my eyes
And now I'm ready to close my mind
And now I'm ready to feel your hand
And lose my heart on the burning sands

And now I wanna be your dog
And now I wanna be your dog
And now I wanna be your dog

Well, come on

Woo
Uh
Uh

    Iggy is a demanding bottom. He's trying to stay in the moment. NOW I wanna be your dog! Right NOW. In five minutes, I may no longer take an interest in being your dog. But right NOW, right NOW I wanna be your dog.

    The song effectively expresses sexual tension and lust. The fuzzy guitar riff snaps, crackles, and pops.

    The song gets across a feeling of abandon, of being so caught up in the sexual moment that one gives up their typical male-female sex roles and is prepared to get lost in the burning sands of this stormy sexual desert.

    It's all about frustration. The guy is alone in his room, and he's thinking of a girl. And there's nothing he can't do because she doesn't care about him. Pure frustration.

    The boy wants sex, he is yearning for that other person and would do anything to please/satisfy them..

    Well, perfectlemur, maybe this should be covered by Sarah Brightman or someone like that.

    I dont really like iggy pop, although he has done some great songs, but the stooges were awsum. And this song just demonstrates it perfectly. Mikeofreak its a good theory but you could be reading into it to much

Jesse with the long hair.... Robert Earl Keen, Jr. Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's. Siberian Kiss Glassjaw its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard Fortnight Taylor Swift The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro. Mental Istid Ebba Grön This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io Cajun Girl Little Feat Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
