You Turn Me On
The Turks Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

How come you do me like you do do do?
How come you do me like you do?
Why do you try to make me feel so blue?
I've done nothing to you.
Do me right or else just let me be.
'Cause I can beat you doing what you're doing to me.
How come you do me like you do do do?
How come you do me like you do?

The repeated question "How come you do me like you do do do?" suggests that the singer is at a loss for words and can't understand what they have done wrong.

I've done nothing to you."


The following lines "Do me right or else just let me be. 'Cause I can beat you doing what you're doing to me." indicates that the singer is becoming fed up with their partner's behaviour and is ready to move on unless they treat them with respect.

Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of frustration, confusion, and emotional pain. It's possible that the song is intended to be a reflection of the complicated and often unpredictable nature of relationships, as well as the importance of mutual respect and understanding.
