Sticky Fingers
Above & Beyond Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I wanted it too
But now there's something that I
Would like you to do
Get your sticky fingers out of my head
Get your sticky fingers out of my head
The chance to dream and then explore
But your elegant dinosaur limbs
Are still willfully bruising my skin
Get your sticky fingers out of my head
Get your sticky fingers out of my head
Get your sticky fingers out of my head
(Get your sticky fingers out of my head)
Get your sticky fingers out of my head
(Get your sticky fingers out of my head)
Get your sticky fingers out of my head
(Get your sticky fingers out of my head)
Get your sticky fingers out of my head
(Get your sticky fingers out of my head)
Get your sticky fingers out of my head
Get your sticky fingers out of my head
Get your sticky fingers out of my head
(Get your sticky fingers out of my head)
Get your sticky fingers out of my head
The lyrics of Sticky Fingers by Above & Beyond and Alex Vargas speak of a relationship that has changed. In the beginning, they painted the picture of the relationship that they both wanted to have. However, something has changed, and the singer now wants the person to remove their "sticky fingers" from their head. This could be seen as a metaphor for the other person's influence or control over them.
The singer acknowledges that they are grateful for the chance to dream and explore, but the other person's actions are still causing them harm. The image of "elegant dinosaur limbs" suggests that the other person is powerful yet also clumsy or thoughtless in their actions. The phrase "willfully bruising" implies that the other person is intentionally causing harm, and the singer wants them to stop.
Overall, the lyrics of Sticky Fingers convey a message of power dynamic in a romantic relationship. The singer acknowledges that they were once willingly influenced by the other person's actions but now wants to be free from their control.

We painted the picture you want
We created exactly what you desired
I wanted it too
I also desired it

Stop influencing my thoughts and decisions
It's not that I'm ungrateful for
