G.U.Y
Lady Gaga Lyrics

Greetings from himeros
An introduction from the god of sexual desire, Himeros.

God of sexual desire, son of aphrodite
Himeros is the son of Aphrodite, the goddess of love, and represents sexual desire.

Lay back, and feast as this audio guides you through new and exciting positions
Enjoy the music and let it guide you through new and exciting sexual positions.

I wanna be the girl under you (oh yeah)
The artist wants to be submissive and sexual with the person they are singing to.

I wanna be your g. U.y (yeah)
The artist wants to be the guy in the song and in control of the sexual situation.

I wanna be the grave and earth you (oh yeah)
The singer wants to be entwined with the person they are singing to, like a grave and the earth.

Our sexes tell us no lies
The physical attraction between the singer and the person they are singing to is honest and true.

I'm gonna wear the towel, the power to leave you
The artist has the power to leave the other person feeling vulnerable, like after a shower with only a towel on.

I'm aiming for full control of this love (of this love)
The artist wants to be in complete control of the sexual and emotional relationship.

Touch me, touch me, don't be sweet
The artist wants to be physically touched in a more aggressive way.

Love me, love me, please retreat
The singer is conflicted between wanting love and wanting space, as they want to be in control.

Let me be the girl under you that makes you cry
The artist wants to have control over the sexual situation and be dominant enough to make the other person cry.

I'm gonna say the word And own you (oh yeah)
The singer wants to have complete control over the other person, especially in a sexual and emotional way.

You'll be my (g. I.r.l) Guy, I'm romance and love's to hold you (oh yeah)
The singer is flirting with the idea of taking control and being in charge of the other person, who is their 'G.I.R.L' (Guy In Real Life). They want to be romantic and loving towards them.

Know, you wear my make-up well
The other person wears the singer's 'mask' or pretense of being in love and being in control of the other person well.

I don’t need to be on top To know what it does, I'm strong enough to know the truth
The artist doesn't need to be physically on top to feel in control. They are confident in their ability to take charge and know what is happening in the situation.

Because I’m best when I’m In love, and i’m in love with you
The artist is in love with the other person and feels that they are at their best when they are in love.

And mars were in spirit rams into the atmosphere
A reference to astrology and the spirit of Mars (the Roman god of war) charging into the atmosphere, representing passion and sexuality.

Touch me touch me, don’t be shy
The singer wants to be physically touched and to not hold back or be embarrassed.

I’m in charge like a G. U.Y.
The artist is now in control of the situation and the other person, like a 'Guising in Ultimate Yearning.'

I'll lay down face up this time, under you like a G. U. Y.
The artist wants to switch roles and be the submissive one, under the other person's control, like a 'Guising under You.'

I wanna be that guy (G. U.Y.)
Repeating the desire to be in control and be the 'GUY' mentioned throughout the song.

I'll wreck you right up guy (G. U.Y.)
The singer wants to take control and have power over the other person, even if it means being aggressive or causing harm, like a 'Guising Under You.'

I'll lie down face up guy (G. U.Y.) (achtzehn)
Continuing the theme of being submissive to the other person's control and reversal of power dynamics.

The girl under you guy! (sechzehn)
Repeating the desire to be submissive and sexually charged with the other person.

Vierzehn Drei, eins Nein zedd Nein zedd Nein zedd Nein zedd
Countdown to end the song, with 'Nein Zedd' possibly being a reference to producer Zedd's absence from the track, indicating that this song wasn't originally created with his collaboration in mind.
