Jonathan Young Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You must be crazy.
There ain't a single thing you've done
Thats gonna faze me, yeah.
But if you wanna have a go,
I just wanna let you know
Get off of my back!
And into my game.
And out of my brain.
Get out of my face!
Give it your best shot!
I think its time you better face the facts,
Get off of my back!
You know that this is just a game,
That I'm playing.
So think that you can find a way in.
Thats what I'm saying, Yeah.
But if you wanna have a go,
I just wanna let you know,
Get off of my back!
And into my game.
Get out of my way!
And outta my brain.
Get out of my face!
Oh, Give it your best shot!
I think it's time you better face the facts,
Get off of my back!
Go!
Yeah!
But if you wanna have a go,
I just wanna let you know,
Get off, Get off!
Yeah, get off of my back!
And into my game!
Get outta my way!
And outta my brain.
Get outta my face!
Give it your best shot, kid!
I think its time you better face the facts.
Get off of my back!
Get off, get off, get off, get off,
Get off (Get off), get off (Get off), Get off (Get off), Get off (Get off), Get off (Get off)
Get off (Get off), Get off (Get off), Get off (Get off), Get off, oh yeah!
Get off of my back!
In Jonathan Young's song, "Get Off My Back," he starts by challenging his opponent who thinks they can defeat him, saying they must be crazy to think they can take him on. He then proceeds to tell them that nothing they do can faze him, and if they want to try, they should be aware that they need to get out of his way and give it their best shot. He sees it as a game that he is playing, and if they want to join, they need to prove themselves before they can challenge him. He concludes by reiterating that they should get off his back, and if they want to join, they should get into his game.
The song appears to be about a person who is confident in their abilities and not intimidated by others who try to challenge them. They see life as a game and are determined to win. They recognize that others may try to bring them down, but they remain undeterred and focused on their goal. The song also suggests that the individual has a competitive nature and sees challenges as an opportunity to improve their abilities.
