So this has been.my favorite song of OTEP's since it came out in 2004, and I always thought it was a song about a child's narrative of suffering in an abusive Christian home. But now that I am revisiting the lyrics, I am seeing something totally new.
This song could be gospel of John but from the perspective of Jesus.
Jesus was NOT having a good time up to and during the crucifixion. Everyone in the known world at the time looked to him with fear, admiration or disgust and he was constantly being asked questions. He spoke in "verses, prophesies and curses". He had made an enemy of the state, and believed the world was increasingly wicked and fallen from grace, or that he was in the "mouth of madness".
The spine of atlas is the structure that allows the titan to hold the world up. Jesus challenged the state and in doing so became a celebrated resistance figure. It also made him public enemy #1.
All of this happened simply because he was doing his thing, not because of any agenda he had or strategy.
And then he gets scourged (storm of thorns)
There are some plot holes here but I think it's an interesting interpretation.
Hey, you, jump in this ride
It's real nice, and slippery inside
Rise, eyes, come get this pie, ride it style
Said it a minute ago, I did it a minute ago
I drop it, I pick it slow, I want it, I kick it though
Cause they know that I got that Gucci
Said I'm bad, but I could be a Gucci
Please my body, rock my body, roll, you make me go
Na na na na na me go
Please my body, heal my body roll, you make me go
Na na na na na me go, we gon'
Hey stranger over there
I'm really liking that way
You whip it whip it
Yeah, I want you everyday
You're so right, you're so tight
You got my world spinning
You got my world spinning
My head goes round and around, round and around
Now I'm thinking
If we could be, stranger what you say?
I'm really liking that way
You whip it whip it whip it whip it
Na na na na na me go
Na na na na na me go
Is that my cue? I'm looking for some brain to boost my IQ
I'm like 5'2, my SAT scores was high too
But I don't mean to brag I Louis Vuitton bag em
Hopped out the jag proceeded to sha shag em
Slim, trim, oh so light skin
So pe pe peter put the pipe in
Please my body, rock my body, roll, you make me go
Na na na na na me go
Please my body, heal my body roll, you make me go
Na na na na na me go, we gon'
Hey stranger over there
I'm really liking that way, you whip it whip it
Yeah, I want you everyday
You're so right, you're so tight
You got my world spinning
You got my world spinning
My head goes round and around, round and around
Now I'm thinking, if we could be, stranger what you say?
I'm really liking that way
You whip it whip it whip it whip it
Na na na na na me go, na na na na na me go
Na na na na na me go, na na na na na me go
It's real nice, and slippery inside
Rise, eyes, come get this pie, ride it style
Said it a minute ago, I did it a minute ago
I drop it, I pick it slow, I want it, I kick it though
Cause they know that I got that Gucci
Said I'm bad, but I could be a Gucci
Please my body, rock my body, roll, you make me go
Na na na na na me go
Please my body, heal my body roll, you make me go
Na na na na na me go, we gon'
Hey stranger over there
I'm really liking that way
You whip it whip it
Yeah, I want you everyday
You're so right, you're so tight
You got my world spinning
You got my world spinning
My head goes round and around, round and around
Now I'm thinking
If we could be, stranger what you say?
I'm really liking that way
You whip it whip it whip it whip it
Na na na na na me go

This song is just another sex call
btw, i hear... squeaze my body, ride my body, (not please my body, rock my body)
Yea, you're right
I've got the whole album, this is much better than pound the alarm. It's got more quality if you hear it very carefully the instruments and beats. I know Nicky got a different voice than others but she's catchy. P.S.: This is Pop, do not compare it with another genres :) it's her style which is original as well.
