R.B.K. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Baby, I like to be sad
You drive me insane with your marlboro red
I get so caught up with you in this bed
Boy lay me down let's get undressed
Give you a night you'll never forget
You drive me insane with your marlboro red
I get so caught up with you in this bed
Give you a night you'll never forget
Leave me to break out on the pavement
It's easy to leave I don't feel ashamed but sometimes I admit, I hate it
You make me hate to share
I've never been jealous before but god you're just so rare
But god you're just so rare.
You drive me insane with your marlboro red
I get so caught up with you in this bed
Boy lay me down let's get undressed
Give you a night you'll never forget
You drive me insane with your marlboro red
I get so caught up with you in this bed
Boy lay me down let's get undressed
Give you a night you'll never forget
The lyrics to R.B.K.'s song "Terminate" depict a complicated and intense relationship between two individuals. The opening lines of "Burn me like a cigarette, Baby, I like to be sad" suggest that the singer is comfortable with emotional pain and perhaps even finds pleasure in it. The mention of a "marlboro red" implies that the other person in the relationship is a smoker, which may be a source of attraction but also a potential health risk. The singer then becomes "caught up" in the physical intimacy of the relationship, as evidenced by the lines "Boy lay me down let's get undressed, Give you a night you'll never forget."
However, the relationship is not without its troubles. The singer admits to sometimes hating the ease with which the other person can leave, suggesting a fear of abandonment. The line "You make me hate to share" implies possessiveness and jealousy, which the singer has never experienced before. The final lines of "You drive me insane with your marlboro red, I get so caught up with you in this bed, Boy lay me down let's get undressed, Give you a night you'll never forget" repeat the earlier sentiment of physical attraction and passion, but it's clear that the relationship is complex and emotionally charged.
