Weekender
Soho Dolls Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Like something you could just hold down and go?
Well know you've dropped yourself right in the deep end
Only you will know
I'm not the type to wash and go
No.
How you appreciate harder and faster
But in the end it would spell your disaster
Only you will know
I'm not the type to wash and go
Just a crush?
Not too serious?
And nothing will ever be
Just a crush?
I'm delirious
You thought you'd only use me
For the weekend
Just for the weekend
For the weekend
And do you think I am blind to your weakness?
I'm just deciding on which way to go
And everybody will think I'm the sweetest
Only you will know that I could be your friend or foe
Come on be strong
Your baby's gone
It wouldn't matter if it weren't so wrong
I wouldn't be here if you didn't want
Come on be strong
Your baby's gone
The song "Weekender" by Soho Dolls is about a woman who is not just a casual fling for the weekend. She is someone who cannot be easily held down and let go of when the weekend is over. The lyrics express that she is not the type to just wash and go as if someone could use her for their own pleasure and discard her. The woman discusses how if someone wants to be with her, they need to appreciate her for who she is and the pace in which she lives her life. If someone cannot keep up with her, it will sordidly end badly for them.
The chorus of the song asks if the person's intentions with the woman are just a crush for a casual weekend or if it is more than that. The woman is upset that someone would think that they could just use her for the weekend and think nothing of it. She is not just a temporary fix for someone's wants and needs. The final verse in the song is the woman acknowledging the person's weakness and deciding which way to go. She notes that everyone will think she is the sweetest and is in control of the situation, but only the person in question will know if she is a friend or a foe. The song is a warning to those who want to use someone for just the weekend and is a reminder to appreciate people for who they are.
