I Like the Way
Sasha Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Low blows and cigarettes on my tongue
Standing in the kitchen, maybe you should go
'Cause I heard you say my attitude was getting kinda stiff
And I replied at least something in this fucking house is

I thought we'd get it on, looks like I was wrong
You're content making love to your phone
I could give you more, why am I fighting for?
'Cause you're so tired when, baby, I'm not tired at all
I've been feeling lonely lately
One more night and I might give in
Lust, it's just lust
So come on, put your hands on me
And show me how it's supposed to be, I'm yours

So treat me like I'm all yours
Just treat me like I'm all yours
Treat me like I'm all yours
Treat me like I'm all yours, yeah

Sometimes I'd rather be just a friend
'Cause they get all your attention
And I barely get a thing
Maybe once you've had a drink then you might make a move
But that's not how I want it when I'm making love to you

I thought we'd get it on, looks like I was wrong
'Cause you're content making love to your phone
I could give you more, why am I fighting for?
'Cause you're so tired when, baby, I'm not tired at all
I've been feeling lonely lately
One more night and I might give in
Lust, it's just lust
So come on, put your hands on me
And show me how it's supposed to be, I'm yours

So treat me like I'm all yours
Just treat me like I'm all yours
Treat me like I'm all yours
Just treat me like I'm all yours

I've been feeling lonely lately
One more night and I might give in
Lust, it's just lust
So come on, put your hands on me
And show me how it's supposed to be, I'm yours

So treat me like I'm all yours
Just treat me like I'm all yours




Treat me like I'm all yours
Treat me like I'm all yours, oh

Line by Line Meaning

Low blows and cigarettes on my tongue
I'm angry and frustrated, and smoking helps me deal with it


Standing in the kitchen, maybe you should go
I'm upset with you and want you to leave my sight


'Cause I heard you say my attitude was getting kinda stiff
Your comment hurt me and made me defensive


And I replied at least something in this fucking house is
I'm trying to make a point that you're not contributing anything positive to our relationship


I thought we'd get it on, looks like I was wrong
I thought we were going to have sex, but it doesn't look like that's happening


You're content making love to your phone
You're more interested in your phone than in me


I could give you more, why am I fighting for?
I have a lot to offer but it doesn't feel like you appreciate it


'Cause you're so tired when, baby, I'm not tired at all
You're not putting in the same effort as me, and it's wearing me out


I've been feeling lonely lately
I feel like I'm not getting the emotional connection I need


One more night and I might give in
I'm close to giving up on this relationship


Lust, it's just lust
Our relationship is based on physical attraction rather than emotional intimacy


So come on, put your hands on me
I'm hoping you'll show me some physical affection


And show me how it's supposed to be, I'm yours
I want to feel loved and desired by you


Sometimes I'd rather be just a friend
I'm not sure if this relationship is worth the effort


'Cause they get all your attention
You seem more interested in your friends than in me


And I barely get a thing
I don't feel like I'm a priority in your life


Maybe once you've had a drink then you might make a move
You seem to only show interest in me when you're not completely sober


But that's not how I want it when I'm making love to you
I want to feel desired and loved naturally, not just when you're drunk


So treat me like I'm all yours
I want to be your priority and feel loved by you


Just treat me like I'm all yours
No one else should be more important to you than me


Treat me like I'm all yours
I want to feel like you're fully committed to me


Oh, treat me like I'm all yours
Please show me the love and attention I need

Everytime I think there's no way Raymond could be any more awesome, he blows my mind yet again. You're such an amazing man Mr. Watts!

@brandonnashadka9458

What a great rendition of this timeless masterpiece.

@vegetasfitnesschannel446

I've been a fan of him since the late 90's. I always thought KMFDM was the best when he collabed with them. Nice to see he's still making good music, I'd say praise the lard is my favorite album of his.

@anikamathur02

Sasha is multi talented
