Dope Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I Don't wanna know your name
And I Do want your private number baby

All I know is that to me
You look like you're lots of fun
Open up your lovin' arms
I want some, want some
I set my sights on you
(And no one else will do)
And I,I,I,I have got to have my way now baby

All I know is that to me
You look like you're lots of fun
Open up your loving arms
Watch out here I come
You spin me right round baby
Right round like a record baby
Right round round round
You spin me right round baby
Right round like a record baby
Right round round round

I Don't wanna be your friend now baby
But I
I wanna move it just a little bit closer

All I know is that to me
You look like you're lots of fun
Open up your loving arms
Watch out here I come
You spin me right round baby
Right round like a record baby
Right round round round
You spin me right round baby
Right round like a record baby
Right round round round

All I know is that to me
You look like you're lots of fun
Open up your loving arms
Watch out here I come
You spin me right round baby
Right round like a record baby
Right round round round
You spin me right round baby




Right round like a record baby
Right round round round

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Dope's song "You Spin Me Round" express a strong desire for a particular person. It is evident from the outset that the singer wants to remain anonymous to the person they are interested in. "I don't wanna know your name" suggests that the singer does not care about the person's identity and only wants their phone number. The line "and I do want your private number baby" indicates that the singer has a clear intention of calling the person later. The second verse reveals that the singer has set their sights on the person in question and that they will go to any lengths to have them. The chorus of the song is one that's most recognized, not only by fans of the band but music lovers all around the world. The phrase "You spin me right round baby, right round like a record baby" is symbolic of how the person of interest in the song is making the singer feel. The phrase could be interpreted to mean that their presence is making the singer dizzy, much like a record that spins round and round.


The third verse of the song shows the singer's emotional and physical attraction to the person of interest. They don't want to remain friends; they want to get closer. Again, the chorus is repeated to show the intensity of the singer's feelings. The use of the repeated chorus, which is catchy, expresses the urgency of the singer's desire. The song's overall upbeat tempo and catchy tune that builds towards the end reflect the singer's optimism towards their romantic conquest.

Most underrated band I've ever had the pleasure of listening to.

@bryanherring5167

Got to see them years ago opening for Kid Rock, pretty good!

@sumg33k6

@Bryan Herring I saw them in a little dive bar in Akron Ohio years ago. Got to shake all their hands which was pretty cool. Edsel is quite the character, and was hilariously sarcastic in conversation.

@PaoloAlghisi

WTF? that's just a cover in Marilyn manson style

@TiuTauTilhi

Grew up with the original, oh the nostalgia. Decades later, this is my favorite cover.

@Unfiltered_drinkingWater

Same

@geoffsmith4614

Try the Hate Dept. version.

@chrisescue6555

@Geoff Smith not bad but not as good...

@HateDietPepsi

The lyrics are more red pill than the original.

@TheUnhappybirthday

You should hear the cover by 3teeth.
