Do Watcha
McFly Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Scared to turn the lights on
Like a ticking time bomb
She's got a fuse
Limit in the rush
The one that kills the passion
What's a boy to do
Swore I'd never come back
Tie me a knouse
With your dirty heart strings
Music in the dark scenes dark things
Do watcha want do watcha want to me
Do watcha want do watcha want to me
Do watcha want do watcha want to me
Do watcha want do watcha want to me
Frozen to the bone
I cannot remember much from that December
Bruised and alone
Caution through the rough tide
Keep it on the inside this time
Do watcha want do watcha want to me
Do watcha want do watcha want to me
Do watcha want do watcha want to me
Do watcha want do watcha wan to me
You want to me you want to me you want to me
Kick me to the kerb
Rip a hole in my heart
And drag through th dirt by my soul from a car
Hug me in the night like a wolf in the dark
But watch out for that bitch called karma!
Do watcha want do watcha want to me
Do watcha want do watcha want to me
Do watcha want do watcha want to me
Do watcha want do watcha want to me
Do watcha want do watcha want to me
Do watcha want do watcha want to me
Do watcha want do watcha want to me
Do watcha want do watcha want to me
Do watcha want do watcha want to me
Do watcha want do watcha want to me
Do watcha want do watcha want to me
Do watcha want do watcha want to me
Do whatcha want
Do whatcha want
Do whatcha want
Do watcha want .
The lyrics of McFly's song "Do Watcha" paints a picture of a tumultuous relationship, with the singer communicating his feelings of being trapped and attacked by his partner. The lyrics suggest that he wants to be free of the relationship and not be held down by his partner's expectations. The opening lines of the song - "Crash into the room, Scared to turn the lights on" - create a sense of foreboding and danger, while the lines "like a ticking time bomb, She's got a fuse" imply that the relationship is explosive and volatile.
The lines "Frozen to the bone, I cannot remember much from that December, Bruised and alone" give the impression of a traumatic event that occurred between the two lovers. The idea that the singer is "frozen" and "bruised" suggests a sense of powerlessness and vulnerability. In the following lines of the song, they try to reconcile their relationship, but it seems that the singer is constantly being pushed away and manipulated by the other person.
The repeated refrain "Do watcha want to me" implies that the singer is resigned to his fate and is almost asking for his partner to do more harm to him. It is a powerful and emotional track that captures the pain and hurt that can come with a relationship that is not healthy or loving.

Dougie's voice + Danny's producing = magic
@PinkToyCar
Dougie is sick dude, why the hell doesn't he sing more? And his playing.. What a huge talent.
@NicolePevensieJones
Can we appreciate the fact that their 3 voices together are PERFECTION??????????????
@Uhm1Yeah
so many bands make do with one solid singer & then there's McFly taking up three awesomely, insanely, & incredibly talented singers in a single band. Plus I rather suspect we'll be hearing more from Harry who is no slouch vocally either!
