Woman on the Screen
Boris Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lowered winding look, and obscure wet sound
The more swirling the more craze in your dance
Winding slowly, you give a gaze
It's partly because you are weak,
isn't it better to have your fingers in your mouth?
Lies coming rear, I think I'm going to be broken up
Throwing away all the mirrors, tack them back of the door
Anyway, after some violent moments, you'd be cracked
It's won't take too long for you to stop
You'll vomit, trying to to seize a headless image of future
I'll open the doors
And I'll stub you




That will fill your fantasty
Hey, I'll penetrate it.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Boris's song "Woman on the Screen" evoke a sense of voyeurism and obsession with a woman on a screen. The first line of the song describes a "lowered winding look," which could be interpreted as a seductive, alluring gaze. The "obscure wet sound" creates a mood of discomfort and unease, perhaps suggesting the singer's growing obsession and the woman's objectification. As the woman's dance becomes more erratic, the singer's obsession builds, reaching a violent crescendo as he imagines "throwing away all the mirrors" and "stubbing" her.


The mention of the woman's "headless image of future" suggests a lack of agency or control in her life, which may be why the singer sees her as a perfect, submissive object of his fixation. The final two lines, "That will fill your fantasy / Hey, I'll penetrate it," further objectify the woman and suggest a disturbingly violent sexual fantasy.


Overall, the lyrics of "Woman on the Screen" paint a dark picture of male obsession and objectification, revealing the ways in which media and technology can exacerbate unhealthy and dangerous attitudes towards women.
