The Crash Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now you treat me like a fool
You turn me down cold-hearted
And I used to be so cool
Till you came and took my groove with all your dirty moves
But I could tell you were a player
Oh, baby how can you be so cruel?
I just wanna love you
Oh, how can you tell me "no"?
I just wanna go go go
Oo-o-oo-ooh (Gigolo)
I wanna love you
You just make my heart ache
I'm hanging on your words (promises, promises)
With all my hope departed
Is this something I deserve
'Cause I let you steal my groove with all your disco moves?
Woman, you made me look like an idiot
Oh, baby how can you be so cruel?
I just wanna love you
How can you tell me "no"?
I just wanna go go go
Oo-o-oo-ooh (Gigolo)
I wanna love you
Oh, can you feel the beat? Feel the beat (beat, beat, beat...)
Well it's my heartbeat (beat, beat, beat...) And you're hurting me, bad
I guess I finally found someone like me
Oh, baby how can you be so cruel?
I just wanna love you
How can you tell me "no"?
I just wanna get your soul
Oo-o-oo-ooh (Gigolo)
I wanna love you
Oo-o-oo-ooh (Gigolo)
I wanna touch you
Oo-o-oo-ooh (Gigolo)
The song "Gigolo" by The Crash is a heartbreak anthem that discusses the pain that comes with falling in love with a player or gigolo. The lyrics begin by describing how the singer was fine until the player entered the picture and stole his rhythm and groove with dirty moves. He recognized the player's intentions, but he could not resist their charm. However, the player declined his advances, leaving him feeling foolish and vulnerable. He continues to pursue the player, but they remain elusive.
The chorus expresses the singer's desire to love the player, but they continue to reject him. He is pained by their refusal but continues to hope that they will come around. The bridge of the song adds to the singer's distress, as he feels that he has finally found someone like himself but is still unable to win their love. The song closes with the singer expressing his longing to touch the player and love them completely.
The song "Gigolo" was released in 2003 and quickly became a hit in Finland and other parts of Europe. The song's catchy beat and relatable lyrics make it a popular choice for dance clubs and parties. The Crash's lead singer, Teemu Brunila, wrote the song, which he has stated was inspired by his experiences as a teenager falling in love with the wrong person.
