London Lyrics
That local brew is spillin'
I know just how you spend your time
I want to get my hands on him
Somebody's party in a London flat
You're where it's at and I know
You want to see me lose my mind
I'm tired of chasing after you
The residue is jealous
See me on the dark side of your mind
I want to get my hands on him
To a club that's pounding in the London rain
The world could end we wouldn't hear it
I know just what's on your mind
I see the way your face has changed
We're no good for each other
You tricked me into coming here
So let go, I don't want to go to London
I told you I don't care
I don't want to go to London
To live there
I don't want to go to London
All your friends afflicted
I don't want to go to London
She's addicted
I saw you with him
I know where you've been
That nose is broken wide open
Your way has got me out of line
I want to get my hands on him
You're so sick to make me prove
It takes a fight to move you
I know just what's on your mind
It's been this way a thousand years
We torture each other
So why the hell'd you call me here
When you know
I don't want to go to London
I told you I don't care
I don't want to go to London
Live there
I don't want to go to London
All your friends afflicted
I don't want to go to London
She's addicted
I don't want to go to London
I told you I don't care
I don't want to go to London
Cause you're not there
I don't want to go to London
Even when I see you
Somewhere else in London
I don't want to go to London
I know I've played this game before. They've broken up, but the girl hints to him where she'll be somehow, and he goes there even though he hates to, seeing her flirting with everyone, with her newestlove interest. She does it just to have his attention, she may not even care about the guy she's with, only that she's making this guy jealous
haha...whoops...I meant City
wow - this song is about coke - the numbness, the partying, the internal (and external too) violence. kinda like how 420 is related to amsterdam i guess. the dude is fighting to get his girl away from the scene where all her friends are afflicted... she wants him to join her in her "fun" but he wants no part of it. in fact, he's only pretty sure, that he can't take anymore... (heh)
i'm gonna second the cocaine theory
This is my absolute favorite song of all time, because I relate to it totally. :D This song (in my opnion) is about a girl who is treating her boyfriend like shit. She leads him on, lies to him, and cheats on him. The part "I don't want to go to London, I told you I don't care." isn't exactly saying he doesn't want to go to the country, it means he doesn't want to be sucked into her lies anymore. I have been lied to , cheated on, and lead on, so I know how he feels. :(
I agree with you about the meaning but London isnt a country
This is the worst song on the album it sounds like he whinning
I think that this song is about a long-distance relationship gone bad. The guy in the song is so fed up with the girl's games because they have made him jealous, and an overall worse person. "We're no good for each other" Also, he knows that he cannot see her again, because he is sure she will play mind games if he sees her again. He has some left over feelings, but the tone of the song suggests that he's ready to move on. He knows she has somebody else, and "I want to get my hands on him" is a wicked line. Clever song
Through the satellites, I fight with you That local brew is spillin' I know just how you spend your time I want to get my hands on him
i can kind of see this clear because i've studied abroad before. i think they decided to stay together and she wants him to move because its become too hard. but he doesnt want to because whats the point in him coming to watch her flirt with all these guys, or this one in particular, through the satellites is like they've been talking on cell phones
"You want to see me lose my mind I'm tired of chasing after you" Wow, I hear that!
