Rock You Like A Hurricane
Scorpions Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Last night was shaking and pretty loud
My cat is purring, it scratches my skin
So what is wrong with another sin?
The bitch is hungry, she needs to tell
So give her inches and feed her well
More days to come, new places to go
Here I am
Rock you like a hurricane
Here I am
Rock you like a hurricane
My body is burning, it starts to shout
Desire is coming, it breaks out loud
Lust is in cages 'til storm breaks loose
Just have to make it with someone I choose
The night is calling, I have to go
The wolf is hungry, he runs the show
He's licking his lips, he's ready to win
On the hunt tonight for love at first sting
Here I am
Rock you like a hurricane (are you ready, baby?)
Here I am
Rock you like a hurricane
Here I am
Rock you like a hurricane (come on, come on, baby)
Here I am
Rock you like a hurricane
Rock you like a hurricane
It's early morning, the sun comes out
Last night was shaking and pretty loud
My cat is purring, it scratches my skin
So what is wrong with another sin?
The night is calling, I have to go
The wolf is hungry, he runs the show
He's licking his lips, he's ready to win
On the hunt tonight for love at first sting
Here I am
Rock you like a hurricane (are you ready, baby?)
Here I am
Rock you like a hurricane
Here I am
Rock you like a hurricane (come on, come on, come on, come on)
Here I am
Rock you like a hurricane
Here I am
"Rock You Like a Hurricane" is a classic hard rock song by the German band Scorpions, released in 1984. The song starts with a description of a wild night of partying and sex, where the singer is awakened by his cat, scratched by a lover, and hungry for more. He then jumps into a description of his burning desire for more action, longing to be set free from the cages of lust that constantly surround him. The verses paint vivid pictures of a rock-star lifestyle, with a wolf-like hunger for fame and success, ready to take on the world with love on his mind.
The song's chorus is a relentless call to action, as the singer declares, "Here I am, rock you like a hurricane." He is ready to take on the world, and he makes it clear that he is determined to give his all, no matter what. The words are accompanied by a soaring guitar riff and an explosive beat that captures the intensity of Scorpions' brand of hard rock.
Overall, "Rock You Like a Hurricane" is a celebration of rock and roll excess, a powerful anthem that captures the unique energy of the genre. The song delivers a powerful message, reminding listeners that life is short, and it's never too late to live it to the fullest.
