Washing Machine Heart
Mitski Lyrics
Toss your dirty shoes in my washing machine heart
Baby, bang it up inside
I'm not wearing my usual lipstick
I thought maybe we would kiss tonight
Baby will you kiss me already and
Toss your dirty shoes in my washing machine heart?
Baby, bang it up inside
Baby, though I've closed my eyes
I know who you pretend I am
Do mi ti
Why not me?
Why not me?
Do mi ti
Why not me?
Why not me?
Do mi ti
Why not me?
Why not me?

“Washing Machine Heart”, the twelfth track off "Be the Cowboy", is sonically upbeat, but lyrically explores the “manic” nature of Mitski’s protagonist, who, in her words:
"'…is a person who’s in me. It’s just I’m not this person all the time. It’s this woman who feels powerless and overcompensates by exercising extreme control on herself and on her environment, and just trying to be powerful within her own limits of her body and who she is Read Full Bio“Washing Machine Heart”, the twelfth track off "Be the Cowboy", is sonically upbeat, but lyrically explores the “manic” nature of Mitski’s protagonist, who, in her words:

There’s something more warm and human inside that she’s pushing down in order to appear strong to the world.'"
The heavy backbeat in the track may represent the clatter of a washing machine and how it parallels the feverish thrum of Mitski (or her protagonist)’s heart.

I like how it sounds like a washing machine, she’s a genius.
Edit: PEOPLE PEOPLE. THE SONG DOES NOT ACTUALLY COME OUT OF MY WASHING MACHINE. (That would be very cool though)
I meant that the beat of the song reminds me of the sounds that a washing machine can make (opening or shutting the door) as well as the heavy guitar in the background which kind of mimics the humming sound a washing machine sometimes makes when it’s on.
But mostly the melody Mitski is using is very interesting because it goes:
(start)/up/down a bit/down/more down/up a bit/up
This sequence kind of has a going round-and-round pattern, which reminded me of a washing machine, if that makes sense :)
