Thunderpussy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To be lies
And all of the joy
Within you dies
Don't you want somebody to love
Don't you need somebody to love
Wouldn't you love somebody to love
When the garden flowers
Baby, are dead, yes
And your mind, your mind
Is so full of red
Don't you want somebody to love
Don't you need somebody to love
Wouldn't you love somebody to love
You better find somebody to love
Your eyes, I say your eyes
May look like his
But in your head, baby
I'm afraid you don't know where it is
Don't you want somebody to love
Don't you need somebody to love
Wouldn't you love somebody to love
You better find somebody to love
Tears are running
They're all running, running down your dress, yes
And, baby, your friends
Well, they treat you like a guest
Don't you want somebody to love
Don't you need somebody to love
Wouldn't you love somebody to love
You better find somebody to love
The song "Somebody to Love" by Thunderpussy captures the heartache and desperation of seeking love in a world where truths are often found to be lies. The lyrics speak directly to the struggles of feeling alone, disconnected, and lost amidst a sea of changing emotions and circumstances.
In the first verse, the singer describes the despair of losing all joy when the truth is exposed as a lie. This sets the stage for the emotional journey that follows in the form of a plea for someone to love. The chorus repeats this theme with increasing urgency and passion, building towards a cathartic release at the end where finding someone to love is framed as an imperative.
The second verse introduces the metaphor of a dead garden and a mind overwhelmed by red, likely representing anger or frustration. Again, the singer turns to the refrain of finding someone to love as a means of finding solace and relief from the pain. The bridge draws attention to the idea that while someone's physical appearance may resemble that of a person they may have loved or lost, the depths of their thoughts and emotions are unknown and ultimately may be a barrier to finding true love.
Overall, "Somebody to Love" is a powerful and relatable anthem for those seeking love and connection in a world that can often feel chaotic and uncertain.

Wouldn't you love somebody to love
You better find somebody to love
The need and desire for someone to love and to be loved in return is essential to life, and you should make an effort to find someone to love before it's too late.
When the garden flowers
Baby, are dead, yes
And your mind, your mind
Is so full of red

Your eyes, I say your eyes
May look like his
But in your head, baby
I'm afraid you don't know where it is
Your physical appearance may resemble someone else, but in your mind, you feel lost and disconnected, unsure of where your true self lies.
Tears are running
They're all running, running down your dress, yes
And, baby, your friends

Patti Smith meets Jefferson Airplane meets 60's acid rock/psychadelia meets 70's punk attititude meets grunge rock and sex.

Wonderful.

@@growingupwithfloyd2184 i would love to hear what grace would have to say. Just watched a clip of grace on Letterman. That woman dominates the space and your mind.
And she hesitates at nothing. I'm watching the kexp perfomance of thunderpussy and it is a '100% better gig to be judged on. My opinion is that grace would back these girls wholeheartedly if she watched the KEXP show
Have you watched it? I'm one song in, but looking forward to the rest of show. There is never a bad gig on KEXP.
