Rocker Girl
The Hot Toddies Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A face you can't forget, smokin' a cigarette
Well you think you're in love but you know that you're not in love.
He wore a man purse, sportin' converse
Long black hair, this boy was no square
Well you think you're in love but you know that you're not in love.
He put down his purse, dove in head first
Well you think you're in love but you know that you're not in love.
Til the break of dawn, they went on and on
And on, and on, and on, and on, and on...
Marshmallow guts
Chocolate covered peanuts
Plastic tiki huts
Drunken oakland sluts.
The song "Rocker Girl" by The Hot Toddies is a playful tale of two people who are physically attracted to each other but not truly in love. The lyrics describe the appearance of the two individuals, with the girl wearing a rocker shirt and a hippie skirt while smoking a cigarette, and the boy sporting a man purse and Converse shoes with long black hair. Despite their mutual physical attraction, the lyrics suggest that the couple is not in love with each other.
Later on in the song, the two engage in a sexual encounter that lasts until the break of dawn. The playful "on, and on, and on" refrain suggests that the encounter was passionate but ultimately meaningless, further emphasizing the lack of true emotion between the two characters.
What makes this song unique is its catchy melody and upbeat tempo that disguises the somewhat cynical lyrics. The contrasting image of a rocker girl and a man purse-wearing guy adds a playful element to the song, while the sexual encounter described in the lyrics adds a touch of adult content. Overall, "Rocker Girl" is a fun and entertaining song that captures a light-hearted, carefree vibe.
