Satisfied
Thunderhead Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

In the morning
Don't say you care
'Cause you wanna keep me to yourself
And I don't wanna share

Always pushin'
'Cause that's your style
Well there's only so much time for you
And I got better things I need to do

'Cause you don't
You don't keep me satisfied
You don't, you don't keep me

Hit the nightlife, I lost control
Now there's trouble
Walking in the streets of Rock`n'Roll
Hangin' with the guys

Well I told her just to get away




Now there's nothing left
For me to say

Overall Meaning

The opening verses of Thunderhead's "Satisfied" depict a lover who seems possessive and self-serving. The singer is aware of their partner's intentions to keep them to themselves - an expectation that they are not willing to accommodate any longer. The song titled "Satisfied" is about the singer's discontent with their lover who has failed to keep them happy in the relationship. There is an underlying theme of the singer standing up for themselves and refusing to play a submissive role in the relationship.


The song moves on to the singer recounting a wild night out with their friends - a stark contrast to the possessive and controlling relationship they find themself in. The chorus then brings back the frustration of the relationship and the looming realization that their lover isn't making them happy. The lyrics are metaphoric and use "Rock'n'Roll" as the singer's escape from a relationship they see as being a hindrance. The song's climax is powerful, as the singer takes ownership of the situation and asks their partner to move on.


Line by Line Meaning

In the morning
At the start of the day


Don't say you care
Don't pretend to love me


'Cause you wanna keep me to yourself
You want to possess me and not share me with others


And I don't wanna share
But I don't want to be restricted to only you


Always pushin'
You are always trying to control me


'Cause that's your style
It's how you've always been


Well there's only so much time for you
But I have many other things to do apart from spending time with you


And I got better things I need to do
And I need to focus on other more important things


'Cause you don't
Because you fail to


You don't keep me satisfied
You don't make me happy or fulfilled


You don't, you don't keep me
You just can't keep me satisfied


Hit the nightlife, I lost control
I partied hard and went crazy


Now there's trouble
Now I'm in hot water


Walking in the streets of Rock`n'Roll
Going out and having a wild time


Hangin' with the guys
Hanging out with my male friends


Well I told her just to get away
I asked her to leave me alone


Now there's nothing left
Now there's no relationship between me and her


For me to say
I have nothing else to add or clarify

Killer tune! I wish they were still going! Ted Bullet is American, so I suppose that is why they sound it ;p

Peter Kumke

Geile Band,vor allem Live äusserst intensiv.

Victor Tian

Thunderhead plays pretty much America style heavy metal,not a typical German sound,that's very strange

Na ja, Hannover hatte ja auch einige andere nette Bands zu bieten.......Victory, Moon´Doc, Sargant Fury, die frühen Scorpions nicht zu vergessen (als sie noch wußten, wie man Musik macht)...und Henny Wolter ist uns ja immerhin bei Sinner / Primal Fear erhalten geblieben. Aber stimmt schon, Thunderhead waren verdammt geil, keine Frage !

Steffen V

Hans-Juergen Hecht

1. Die Scorps rocken immer noch!!! Warum nur zählt der Prophet usw..... 2. TH waren mit ihren ersten 2 Alben GANZ weit vorne, haben danach aber Fehler gemacht. 3.Ted hat danach bei SonOfABitch mit ex-Saxon Gitarrist nichts erreicht 4.Leider hat Henny sein Rock´n´Roll-Spiel nie bei SINNER einbringen können. Einfach schade, daß es diese Combo nicht mehr gibt. In D war das einmalig!!
