I Don't Know
A-TEST-A Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I said, "I'm drinkin' up.
Would you like a belt yerself?"
You said, "Thanks, but no thanks,
I don't drink, myself.
But you go right ahead, my friend,
I'm not the sort that minds."

"That's good to hear," I said
"Because I think you'll find
That I don't care that you don't mind."

I said, "I'm lightin' up.
Would you like a puff?"
You said, "Thanks, but no thanks,
I don't do that stuff.
But you go right ahead, my friend,
I'm not the sort that minds."

"That's good to hear," I said
"Because I think you'll find
That I don't care that you don't mind."

I said "Let's do the nasty,
I like it when it's rough."
You said, "Well, I'm not so sure
I like that kind of stuff.
But I'll roll over just for you
And take it from behind."

"That's good to hear," I said




"Because I think you'll find
That I don't care that you don't mind."

Overall Meaning

The song "I Don't Know" by A-TEST-A explores a conversation between two people who have different values and beliefs. The first person is indulging in alcohol and drugs, and when they offer their friend a drink or a puff, the friend declines politely. The first person doesn't seem to care about their friend's refusal, as they continue to drink and smoke. However, when they suggest doing something more intimate, their friend hesitates but eventually agrees to go along with it. The song seems to be a commentary on how sometimes people will make choices that conflict with their values in order to please others or fit in with a certain group.


The lyrics "I don't care that you don't mind" signify that the first person is aware of the friend's reluctance but doesn't feel guilty or ashamed for their own behavior. They may even feel encouraged by the friend's passive acceptance of their actions. This implies that the first person is seeking some sort of validation or acceptance through their actions, and perhaps feels lonely or insecure without it. However, the friend's willingness to compromise suggests that they too may feel conflicted about their own values and are willing to bend them in order to maintain a relationship with the first person.


Overall, "I Don't Know" is a cautionary tale about the dangers of compromising one's values for the sake of pleasing others or fitting in with a certain crowd. The song encourages listeners to be true to themselves and their beliefs, even if it means going against the norm.

Lyrics

Since I don't know how you find love in LA
They don't make 'em like they do in the country
The city moves too fast to appreciate
All the time it takes for sweet loving
Listen for fate's whisper
It'll try and warn you
Telling your heart to be cautious of a lover trying to harm you
All the girls in LA look like they're fadin' away
A woman should be strong with thick legs and big arms
The stars in the sky, they put em on the street
With the bums and the tramps, that nobody needs
Listen for fate's whisper
It'll try and warn you
Telling your heart to be cautious of a lover trying to harm you
You know they say it ain't easy lovin' the same woman forever
Wish you luck on finding the good one on your heart's endeavor
Nothing is easy
Love isn't easy as it seems
You can test a woman for honesty
You can go and test her for goodness
But it's a wicked game and a crying shame
There's no way to give her a love test
Listen for fate's whisper
It'll try and warn you
Telling your heart to be cautious of a lover trying to harm you
You know they say it ain't easy lovin' the same woman forever
Wish you luck on finding the good one on your heart's endeavor
Nothing is easy
Love isn't easy as it seems
