L7 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's a guy with long hair
He's really, really nice
But we had a problem
Andres
I'm sorry
And we need some AC
It's burning up in here
We've got something to tell you
Andres
I'm sorry
The song "Andres" by L7 depicts a story of regret and apology to someone named Andres who seems to be a friendly and helpful person. The first two lines of the song set the location in North Hollywood where a man with long hair resides. It is implied that the person is a good person, however, the lyrics shift tone to suggest an issue in the relationship between the singer and Andres. The chorus repeats the phrase "Andres, I'm sorry" twice, indicating some wrongdoing has occurred.
The next verse adds some context to the situation, as the singer mentions a key being stuck in the lock and the need for AC. The temperature being too high signals a sense of urgency on the singer's part, as if they need to make amends with Andres quickly. The final line repeats the apology once more, emphasizing remorse and regret for the situation.
Overall, the lyrics of "Andres" paint a picture of a fractured relationship and a desire to fix it. The song captures a complex human emotion, where one realizes the importance of someone only after they have pushed them away.

Down in North Hollywood
In the district of North Hollywood
There's a guy with long hair
Lives a man who has long hair
He's really, really nice
He's extremely kind and friendly
But we had a problem
However, we encountered an issue
Andres
Addressing the man with long hair named Andres
I'm sorry
Apologizing for something that has happened
The key is stuck in the lock
The door key has become jammed in the lock
And we need some AC
We require air conditioning to cool the space down
It's burning up in here
The temperature inside is unbearably hot
We've got something to tell you
There is a message that we need to communicate to you

At 0:32, I think L7 is making fun of the cover of Pearl Jam's "Ten." They're doing the same pose! God, that's hilarious!
@compellor1st
Nice catch! Although I suspect it may have been more of an homage since PJ were big supporters of L7 and their pro-choice activism.

@skelter1153
No.
It's not the same pose.

@@skelter1153 I don't normally respond to people who respond to comments I made ten years ago, but here I must. Look closely at the album cover and you'll see exactly what I mean. It's unmistakably the same. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/593070a42994cad2710a6439/1516537539071-0ADVS8SAF2P31TDWJ5IO/Alb.jpg?format=500w

I see what you mean but if you look it doesn’t really look the same

I remember i saw L7 in Italy back in '94, really insane, all the club was in the mosh pit, there was no safe spot, fight for survive! I still have the ticker with Donita autograph!! Great band!

The guitar string scratches just make the song for me. Gives it such a cool demented feeling.
