Woman In The Window
Satellite Party Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(Oh, dreamland)
I am the woman, in the window,
See the children playing.
Soilders, sailor, young and underway,
To the summer swimming pool.
In my window, can you hear me,
Laughing?
Come up staris sir,
To your room,
And i will play for you.
Oh, dreamland, golden scene land,
Try to sleep then take us to,
Dreamland.
I'm am unhappy,
Far from my women.
Just try and stop us,
We're going to love.
Just try and stop us,
We're going to love.
Just try and stop us,
We're going to love.
"Eat, at my table,"
She cried to the vineyards,
Calling the workers,
Home from the matters.
"Man you are evil,
Get out of my Garden"
Just try and stop us,
We're going to love.
Just try and stop us,
We're going to love.
Just try and stop us,
We're going to love.
Just try and stop us,
We're going to love.
Just try and stop us.
We're going to love.
Cover us, over.
Open your window,
Women of palestein.
Throw down your raiment,
And cover us, over.
Riding the prearranges,
Me and my angel,
Just try and stop us,
We're going to love.
Just try and stop us,
We're going to love.
Just try and stop us,
We're going to love.
Just try and stop us,
We're going to love.
Just try and stop us.
We're going to love.
The lyrics of Satellite Party’s “Woman In The Window” are dreamlike and somewhat surreal, narrating a series of loosely connected images that seem to represent both the mundane reality of everyday life and the possibility of transcendent experiences. The singer is a woman who appears to be an observer, watching the world go by from her window. She sees children playing, soldiers and sailors going about their business, and people enjoying the summer. She beckons someone to come up the stairs and join her in her room, offering to play music for them. The chorus repeats the phrase “Oh, dreamland, golden scene land, try to sleep then take us to dreamland,” suggesting a yearning for escape and a desire to transcend the ordinary.
The second half of the song introduces a new set of images, which are more explicitly political and confrontational. The singer mentions Palestine and the vineyards, invoking the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians. She demands that the workers be allowed to come home, and tells a man to leave her garden, calling him evil. The chorus again repeats the phrase “just try and stop us, we’re going to love,” but here it takes on a more defiant and revolutionary tone.
Overall, the lyrics of “Woman In The Window” suggest a longing for transcendence, for escape from the constraints of everyday life, and a desire for justice and revolution. The song seems to be an invitation to dream, to imagine a different kind of world, and to refuse to be constrained by the limits imposed by the structures of power.
