Femme Fatale
Pansy Division Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You better watch your step
He's gonna break your heart in two
Yes it's true
It's not hard to realize
Just look into his false colored eyes
He'll build you up to just put you down
What a clown
The things he does to please
He's just a little tease
See the way he walks
Hear the way he talks
You're written in his book
You're number thirty-seven have a look
He's gonna smile to make you frown
What a clown
Little boy he's from the street
Before you start you're already beat
He's gonna play you for a fool
Yes it's true
Cause everybody knows he's a femme fatale
The things he does to please
He's just a little tease
See the way he walks
And hear the way he talks
The lyrics to Pansy Division's song "Femme Fatale" paint a vivid portrait of a seductive and manipulative man who builds up young women only to break their hearts. The opening lines caution the listener to "watch your step" because this man is a heartbreaker. He has a way of coaxing women into falling for him with his false charm and colorful eyes, only to leave them feeling used and discarded. The chorus provides the title of the song and emphasizes the idea that this man is a "femme fatale" - typically a term used to describe a seductive woman who leads men to their ruin.
The characterization of this man is further developed in the verses, with the lyrics portraying him as a "clown" who enjoys toying with the emotions of vulnerable women. He keeps track of his conquests in a book - the line "you're number thirty-seven have a look" emphasizes the casual and cavalier way in which he treats these women. He is described as a "little boy from the street" who preys on unsuspecting women for his own pleasure. The lyrics suggest that this pattern of behavior is well-known and that "everybody knows he's a femme fatale."
Overall, the lyrics to "Femme Fatale" serve as a warning about the dangers of falling for someone who is not what they seem - the man described in this song is a charming but ultimately destructive figure who leaves a trail of broken hearts in his wake.

I don't like macho, put it away
Doesn't appeal to me, straight or gay
But I know a boy who catches my eye
He don't act tough, why should he try?
He's a fem in a black leather jacket
He's a gem in a black leather jacket
He's a gem in a black leather jacket
And I wanna take him home with me
With his long long hair and pouty lips
Cute little butt and s*** hips
The way he moves has me inspired
He's the boy that I require
Chorus fem fem, fem fem femmy
He looks as good in a skirt as he does in jeans
He is a most notorious queen
(with) his personality I'm not impressed
But I can't wait to get him undressed
Chorus and I'm gonna take him home with me!

What the hell, this song speaks to me so much I thought most gay people were into muscular dudes and I was a weirdo outcast
Not even that big of a fan of the song itself but it actually spoke to me on something I thought I was alone on
