Yours
Delicious Feat. Tiger lilly Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You were seventeen, pretty in the head
Sent in some photographs, this is what they said
Open your legs
Open your legs

You want to be a model, and this could be a start
They're only jealous when they call you a tart
Open your legs
Open your legs

There's a demand, you're the supply
Dry your tears, that's why
Open your legs
Open your legs
Open your legs
Open your legs




Open your legs
Just open your legs

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Yours" by Delicious Feat. Tiger lilly speak to the exploitation and objectification of young women in the modeling industry. The song describes a 17-year-old girl who has sent photographs to modeling agencies in hopes of launching her career. However, she is met with the demand to "open your legs," indicating that sexual favors are expected in exchange for the opportunity to model. The girl is told that this is just the way things are in the industry, and that she should accept it as the norm.


The repetition of the phrase "open your legs" is meant to emphasize the pressure and coercion placed upon young women in the modeling world. It highlights the power dynamics at play, with agencies and photographers holding all the cards and the models feeling powerless and helpless. The line "you're the supply" reinforces this idea, suggesting that the models are seen as commodities to be used and discarded at will.


Overall, "Yours" is a commentary on the dark side of the modeling industry and the toll that it can take on the young women who are trying to make a name for themselves.

Lyrics:
It's taking time to perfect this,
Of all other needs I am careless,
I'll give U all that U need,
I am the stars and the sea,
We'll make the whole world feel good,
No doubt in my mind that we could,
I'll give U all that U need and more,
It can be yours ;)
