Taste the Last Girl
Sons and Daughters Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Too much you need
Too much you need
He's a genuine boy with a guilty smile
Hands to pull you forward faster

You and your game is not the answer
Not on your own
Had to fool you're forward faster
You're smashing heads and breaking ladders

All on your own
Your further on
But you can taste the last girl
She's the servant to the master

Oh now your on your own
Outrun yourself to find the next
You'll take what's coming
Catch your own death

All on your own
Too much you need
Too much is greed
He's a genuine boy with a guilty smile

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Sons and Daughters' song Taste The Last Girl describe a person who is striving to fulfill their desires and their greed, represented by the repeated lines "too much you need." The singer is aware of their unhealthy desires but cannot help but give in to their impulses. The mention of a "genuine boy with a guilty smile" could signify someone who is aware of their own moral conflict but cannot stop themselves from leading others astray. The line "hands to pull you forward faster" suggests that the singer is being propelled forward towards their desires by external factors.


However, the lyrics also warn against the dangerous consequences of following one's selfish desires, as evidenced by lines such as "smashing heads and breaking ladders" and "catch your own death." The imagery of destruction and recklessness further underline the negative consequences of living a life driven purely by one's own needs. The line "you can taste the last girl/ she's the servant to the master" could signify the pleasure taken from hurting others, using them to satisfy one's own needs without concern for their well-being.
