You're what I need
Give me your love
Make me a freak
I can't wait, I can't wait anymore
I can't wait, I can't wait anymore
I can't wait, I can't wait anymore
Your scent, like storms
Is wild divine
I want your love
All of the time
I can't wait, I can't wait anymore
I can't wait, I can't wait anymore
I can't wait, I can't wait anymore
I can't wait, I can't wait anymore
Connect me
To the other side
Connect me
To the other side
Your strange music
Like lucid dreams
The power of you
Transforming me
I can't wait, I can't wait anymore
I can't wait, I can't wait anymore
I can't wait, I can't wait anymore
I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait anymore
I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait anymore

I can't wait, I can't wait anymore (Don't stop now)
I can't wait, I can't wait anymore (Don't stop now, don't stop now)
The lyrics of the song Anymore by Goldfrapp express the desire of the singer to connect with someone who is what they want and need, someone who can make them feel like a "freak" through their love. The singer is overwhelmed with anticipation, reflected in the repetition of "I can't wait, I can't wait anymore." The love interest is described metaphorically as a wild, stormy scent that is "wild divine" and their "strange music" would "connect" the singer to another side or a different state of being.
The song suggests that this connection with the other person is transformative and powerful enough to take the singer to a lucid dream-like state, and the person is almost like a mythical otherworldly being with the power to fundamentally alter the singer's experience of themselves. As the song progresses, the lyrics become more urgent, with the repetition of "don't stop now" suggesting the singer is begging the love interest not to back out of the connection they've established.

Peaches Teaches
When a storm blows on the outside
Peaches teaches
Softness
So much softness
In a secret place
On the inside
Take a hand
Join the band
Play the plan
Understand
All of us
Woman and man
See inside the unseen
Take a picture
Don’t be mean
Never a scene
Warm and serene
Laughing the unlaughable
Touching the untouchable
Connecting the unconnected
When in a storm out at sea
Peaches teaches
Softness
So much softness
Deep undersea
In her submarine

Goldfrapp are easily one of the finest music artists to have emerged since 2000. Utterly superb! 💕

That speaks volumes
Ima Brand
So simple. So not generic. Straight to the gut. Sexual. Aggressive. Frank. Powerful and pumping. I just fucking love this track. It is so hip.

Could you imagine being the person that someone gives this song to? It says "You do it for me. So, just get it on over here."
April Bundy
I can’t get enough of this song. Goldfrapp is my inner diva music. I feel invincible when I listen to her.
Zara
Right?!
Christos Polydorou
Her perfect mix of coolness and emotion is utterly tantalising. Whipped!
Areti G
Alison Goldfrapp is a brilliant artist!!!
Tappet Manifolds
She may be from Bath, U.K. Lots of freaks live there, extremely talented ones at that...

I've read that you guys haven't taken any substances to write your stuff, but it's rare that there's good music from people who haven't partaken. And this isn't just
barelypast the threshold. Goldfrapp is a friggin' whack ride through a landscape littered with fantastical realities of subtle to strong eroticism that's apparent not simply in lyrics, but the music itself is as a living being, whose sound is what we perceive of its existence.
