The Chemical Brothers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can't seem to put it down
I can't seem to shake this feeling
I can't seem to put it down down down down
But I must remember
I'm a hustler
I'm a full moon
I can't seem to shake this feeling
I can't seem to put it down
I can't seem to shake this feeling
I can't seem to put it down down down down
Down down down down
Down down down down down
But I must remember
I'm a hustler
I'm a full moon
I'm a tiger sleeping in your
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah
Would you call him
And tell him how I feel
I can make the payment
I can make the deal
I should call him
And tell him how I feel
I can make the payment
I can make the deal
The Chemical Brothers' "The Boxer Dfa Version" is a driving and intense song that deals with the internal struggle of trying to shake off a feeling that seems to weigh the singer down. They repeat the same four lines throughout the song, emphasizing the struggle to move on from something, to put it down, but being unable to. There is a sense of frustration and urgency in the way the lyrics are delivered, with urgent repetitions and the use of "down" further emphasizing the weight of the feeling that the singer is trying to shake off.
As the song progresses, the singer reminds themselves that they are a "hustler," a "full moon," and a "tiger sleeping in your" - powerful and wild imagery that suggests an underlying sense of strength and resilience. The line "tiger sleeping in your" is left unfinished, leaving the listener to imagine what comes after, perhaps hinting at the idea that there is something powerful and dangerous lurking beneath the surface.
The lyrics then take a sudden shift with the introduction of lines that suggest the singer has done something wrong and needs to make a payment or a deal. The lines "Would you call him/And tell him how I feel/I can make the payment/I can make the deal" suggest desperation and a need to make amends or make things right, perhaps adding another layer to the feeling that the singer is struggling to shake off. Overall, the song is a powerful and emotive exploration of the complexities of the human psyche.
