Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We've been here too long tryin' to get along
Pretending that you're, oh, so shy
I'm a natural man doin' all I can
My temperature is runnin' high

Friday night no one in sight
And we got so much to share
Talkin's fine if you got the time
But I ain't got the time to spare

Do you wanna touch? Yeah
Do you wanna touch? Yeah
Do you wanna touch me there? Where?

Do you wanna touch? Yeah
Do you wanna touch? Yeah
Do you wanna touch me there?

Every girl and boy needs a little joy
All you do is sit and stare
Beggin' on my knees, baby won't you please
Run your fingers through' my hair

My my my whiskey and rye
Don't it make you feel so fine?
Right or wrong, don't it turn you on?
Can't you see we're wastin' time? Yeah

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Do You Wanna Touch Me" by Glee Cast Feat. Gwyneth Paltrow Kevin McHale Amber Riley suggest a seductive invitation to touch. The opening verse paints a picture of an unspoken frustration in a relationship where one party is pretending to be shy but the other is losing patience. The chorus repeatedly asks the partner if they want to touch and makes it clear that the singer is ready and willing. The second verse continues with a plea for physical contact as the singer begs for their partner to run their fingers through their hair. The lyrics suggest that the tension has been building for some time and it's time to take things to the next level.


The song was originally written by Gary Glitter and Mike Leander and was released in 1973. The Glee Cast version featuring Gwyneth Paltrow Kevin McHale Amber Riley was released in 2011. The song gained further notoriety when it was covered by Joan Jett in 1982. While the lyrics clearly suggest a sexual invitation, the message is not without controversy as Gary Glitter (real name Paul Gadd) has been convicted of multiple vile offenses and sentenced to prison. This fact caused many radio stations to stop playing the song.
