Sunset Strip
Nelson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is all I need to get me through
I'm hypnotized when you take the stage
Table dance my blues away
From Officer Easy to Little Bo Peep
She's a master of disguise
She's sugar and spice, she's naughty and nice
[Chorus:]
C'mon, little honey, walk this way
Strut your stuff in that lingerie
That's right, pretty mama
Give me your sunset strip
Tease me, please me, help me unwind
And I'll feed your pretty kitty one buck at a time
Bump it, grind it, blow me a kiss
I'm at your mercy when you do that sunset strip
You're a feast for hungry eyes
You could make a grown man cry
You're in control of every man
Your every wish is my command
If Calamity Jane doesn't drive me insane
Nurse Nympho is sure to please
Then Little Annie Fannie's gonna rock me to my knees
[Chorus]
Keep this up and I'll blow my lid
You make me explode when you do that sunset strip
Your sunset strip has got me goin' crazy
(Take it off!)
Oh yeah, it's just another night out with the boys
Oh baby, bring on those dancing girls
Yeah, we're all gonna leave here broke, drunk, and horny
Oh, I love you, I love you, I love you!
[Chorus]
I've been around the world and you're the best there is
You make me feel like a king
When you're queen of the sunset strip
(Take it off!)
The sunset strip has got me goin' crazy!
(Take it off!)
The song "Sunset Strip" by Nelson portrays the singer's fascination with a woman who works on Sunset Strip, a famous entertainment district in Los Angeles. He is enamored by the woman's charisma and sensuality, describing her as a master of disguise who can read his "dirty mind." The narrative shifts between the singer's admiration for the woman's physical appearance and his emotional investment in their interaction. During the chorus, the singer encourages the woman to "tease" and "please" him as he feeds her money for a private show. He is willing to let her control him in exchange for her erotic performance, which he describes as a "feast for hungry eyes." The song has a heavy emphasis on sexuality, with lyrics that are suggestive and sometimes explicit.
Overall, the lyrics of "Sunset Strip" reveal the complicated nature of desire and objectification, particularly in a context where women's bodies are commodified for male consumption. The singer's fixation on the woman's sexual appeal is transactional, and the power dynamic between them is uneven. Nevertheless, the song also highlights the appeal of sexual fantasy and the way in which it can provide a temporary escape from the mundanity of everyday life. Additionally, the song touches on themes of escapism and indulgence, as the singer and his friends are depicted as seeking out the excitement and excess of Sunset Strip.
