One More Fucking Time
Motorhead渀 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All life is a mystery,
All things come to he who waits
All things just a twist of fate
It's just a state of mind
All your time is not your own
It's real hard to find out why
It's real hard to say good-bye
To move on down the line...

Both your eyes wide open
You see the shape I'm in
It wasn't of my choosing
It's only bones and skin
And I will plead no contest
If loving you's a crime
So go on and find me guilty
Just one more fucking time

All your life is in your head
All you dreams are in your sleep
And if your dreams are hid too deep
They're just a waste of time
When you try to chase the dream
You never seem to know the time
You never recognize the signs
And nothing's what it seems

Both your eyes wide open
You see the shape I'm in
It wasn't of my choosing
It's only bones and skin
And I will plead no contest
If loving you's a crime
So go on and find me guilty
Just one more fucking time

And if I would have been a bad man
You would have seen the good in me
You would have seen the other
The good man I could be
But since I am a good man
The same was all the same
Nothing I could do, nothing I could do

All life is a mystery,
All things pass you by in time
All things just a perfect crime
It's just the way we are
All instincts let you down
It's not a case of love in vain
It's not a case of love insane
It's enough to break your heart

Both your eyes wide open
You see the shape I'm in
It wasn't my idea
That I be the one to sin
And so all those years together
Weren't worth a fucking dime
So go on and find me guilty
Just one more fucking time
And so all our years together
Weren't worth a fucking dime
So go on and find me guilty
Just one more fucking time
And so all our years together
Weren't worth a fucking dime
So go on and find me guilty
Just one more fucking time

Overall Meaning

The song "One More Fucking Time" by Motörhead seems to reflect on the complexities of life, love, and fate. The lyrics suggest that life is full of mysteries, and that everything happens according to fate. The lines "All things come to he who waits" and "It's just a state of mind" indicate that sometimes, it's difficult to understand why things happen, and that things are often beyond our control.


The song also seems to touch on the struggle of chasing dreams and recognizing the signs of the path we are meant to take. The lines "And if your dreams are hid too deep, they're just a waste of time" suggest that it's important to be aware of our own aspirations and purpose.


The chorus "Both your eyes wide open, you see the shape I'm in" repeatedly emphasizes the idea of being seen and judged, and the singer implies that if they could be guilty of loving someone so completely, they would do it again and again.


Overall, the song is a reflection on the complexities of life and love, and the idea that sometimes we may feel guilty for our own feelings, but it's worth it to take the risk.

Weren't worth a fucking dime
Were not valuable or worthwhile


And so all our years together
All the time we spent together


Weren't worth a fucking dime
Were not valuable or worthwhile


So go on and find me guilty
Punish me for my mistakes


Just one more fucking time
One last time
