Most people can listen to songs for years upon years without ever knowing the actual lyrics they are mumbling. I am almost one of those people. And I was always amazed whenever I saw someone clearly singing all the words to a pop song. How the heck could they decipher the screaming?
There simply was no easy way to ascertain what those drugged-up, eating-disordered singers were saying - until the internet. Now you can google songs, partial lyrics, and even find the full audio on youtube for almost every extant song.
I heard the recent hit of that pop diva Pink on the radio I don't know how many times before I figured out what she was saying. The chorus is "...It's you and your hand tonight"!
Alright, maybe more context is needed. Here are the full lyrics:
U + Ur Hand lyrics
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh oh
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh oh
Check it out
Going out
On the late night
Looking tight
Feeling nice
It's a cock fight
I can tell
I just know
That it's going down
Tonight
At the door we don't wait cause we know them
At the bar six shots just beginning
That's when dick head put his hands on me
But you see
I'm not here for your entertainment
You don't really want to mess with me tonight
Just stop and take a second
I was fine before you walked into my life
Cause you know it's over
Before it began
Keep your drink just give me the money
It's just you and your hand tonight
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh oh
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh oh
Midnight
I'm drunk
I don't give a ***k
Wanna dance
By myself
Guess you're outta luck
Don't touch
Back up
I'm not the one
Buh bye
Listen up it's just not happening
You can say what you want to your boyfriends
Just let me have my fun tonight
Aiight
I'm not here for your entertainment
You don't really want to mess with me tonight
Just stop and take a second
I was fine before you walked into my life
Cause you know it's over
Before it began
Keep your drink just give me the money
It's just you and your hand tonight
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh oh
Break break
Break it down
In the corner with your boys you bet 'em five bucks
You'd get the girl that just walked in but she thinks you suck
We didn't get all dressed up just for you to see
So quit spilling your drinks on me yeah
You know who you are
High fivin, talking sh*t, but you're going home alone arentcha?
Cause I'm not here for your entertainment
No
You don't really want to mess with me tonight
Just stop and take a second
Just stop and take a second
I was fine before you walked into my life
Cause you know it's over
Know it's over
Before it began
Keep your drink just give me the money
It's just you and your hand tonight
It's just you and your hand
I'm not here for your entertainment
No no no
You don't really want to mess with me tonight
Just stop and take a second
Just take a second
I was fine before you walked into my life
Cause you know it's over
Before it began
Keep your drink just give me the money
It's just you and your hand tonight
Yeah oh
So why am I posting on this small beer?
Well, I play these songs on youtube for my kids to dance to behind me while I try to work. I just happened to glance up at the window and see a very funny comment under the video on youtube.
I couldn't believe it. At first I thought it was sarcasm. Pink IS a whore! Look at what she
What a darned shame that some 13 year old girl commenting on youtube really thinks telling a guy to give you $3 bucks instead of a drink and to go home and auto-gratify is what separates ladies from "whores". What type of positive female role model prances around in tramp attire, peppering her songs with "dick head" and "cock fight"?
This youtube comment would graduate from funny to hilarious if it wasn't so tragic.
How can I possibly shield my little girl from at least the fashion standards of these role models - no less everything else?
Now I have bought many random girls drinks at the bars. I thought I had received the full gamut of responses right down to this one girl who looked at me and fell out of her bar stool laughing upon my proposal. (This was at Dicken's Inn in Philly. She was probably 40 and I was 19. I had to look not a day older than 15 at the time.)
But never has a girl turned down my offer, suggested I simply pay her, and then go home and touch myself. Unfortunately for the stags out there, this response has now been normalized through song.
I see that Pink is from Doylestown, PA. I remember, more than a few times, me buying random girls from Doylestown drinks. They used to come down to Philly all the time to escape the boredom of suburbia. Could I have bought her one back in the day?
Suburban girls are always the easiest to approach in almost every city bar. I sincerely doubt Pink was turning down drinks so rudely back when she was just known as Alecia Beth Moore.
Pink maybe able to turn out some fun songs (ignoring the lyrics), but she is a piece of garbage.
Maybe the message is dress like a whore and talk like a whore BUT get really pissed if anyone MIGHT think you are one?
I don't know.
Regardless, tarting yourself up for money is the very essence of being a whore.
If you saw a girl dressed like Pink out on the town are you supposed to think, "Hey, that's the type of girl I would like to take to the opera or maybe have a deep geo-political discussion with..."
