Should I Stay Or should I Go
The Cooltrane Quartet Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Darling, you got to let me know
Should I stay or should I go?
If you say that you are mine
I'll be here 'til the end of time
So you got to let me know
Should I stay or should I go?
It's always tease, tease, tease
You're happy when I'm on my knees
One day it's fine and next it's black
So if you want me off your back
Well, come on and let me know
Should I stay or should I go?
Should I stay or should I go now?
Should I stay or should I go now?
If I go, there will be trouble
And if I stay it will be double
So come on and let me know
This indecision's bugging me (esta indecisión me molesta)
If you don't want me, set me free (si no me quieres, librarme)
Exactly whom I'm supposed to be (dígame que tengo ser)
Don't you know which clothes even fit me? (sabes que ropa me quedra)
Come on and let me know (me tienes que decir)
Should I cool it or should I blow? (me debo ir o quedarme)
Split
Should I stay or should I go now? (yo me enfrió o lo soplo)
Should I stay or should I go now? (yo me enfrió o lo soplo)
If I go there will be trouble (si me voy va a haber peligro)
And if I stay it will be double (si me quedo sera el doble)
So ya gotta let me know (me tienes que decir)
Should I cool it or should I blow? (me debo ir o quedarme)
Should I stay or should I go now? (tengo frío por los ojos)
If I go there will be trouble (si me voy va haber peligro)
And if I stay it wil be double (si me quedo sera el doble)




So ya gotta let me know me tienes que decir
Should I stay or should I go?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Should I Stay or Should I Go" by The Cooltrane Quartet depict a relationship in which the singer is constantly unsure of where they stand with their partner. The chorus consists of the titular question: "Should I stay or should I go?" The singer seeks clarity regarding the state of their relationship and desires a definitive answer. The second verse describes the singer's frustration with the constant back and forth in the relationship and the third verse even includes a reference to the singer's identity and their desire for their partner to know who they truly are.


The lyrics paint a picture of a toxic and unstable relationship. The constant teasing and fickleness of the partner perpetuate the singer's indecision and confusion. The chorus also highlights the potential consequences of the decision to stay or go - if the singer stays, it will be double the trouble, whereas if they go, there will be trouble.
