Ugly Americans Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Your soft embrace your aftertaste we ain't got no time to waste tell me what you need
Cause you can tie me up or tie me down on your bed or on the ground
When we come up for air don't be scared I'll run my fingers through your hair
This electric magnetic love thing experience
Aaah aaah aaah
Might drop you to your knees
It won't do what you please
Well I can't be your father child but try and I might drive you wild
I've been trapped inside your cherry tree
Ever since you put your spell on me
This electric magnetic love thing experience
Aaah aaah aaah
Might drop you to your knees
It won't do what you please
Pull my trigger scratch my back cause when you do it just like that it makes me wanna scream
I shiver when you shake my rattle I love it when I'm in your saddle it feels like a dream
This electric magnetic love thing experience
It's a love thing experience
It's a love thing experience
It's a love thing experience
Aaah aaah aaah
Might drop you to your knees
It won't do what you please
The lyrics to Ugly Americans' song "Electro" describe the intense physical and emotional connection between two people. The singer describes slipping into their lover's "silky skin" and wanting to experience their fantasies together. The lyrics are full of sensual imagery, with references to tying each other up or down and running fingers through hair. The chorus describes the intense, almost overwhelming sexual energy between the two, with the repetition of "aaah aaah aaah" conveying a sense of ecstasy.
Beyond the physical attraction, there is something almost mystical about the connection between the two lovers. The lyrics refer to an "electric magnetic love thing experience," which seems to suggest that their connection goes beyond mere physical attraction. The singer is willing to be vulnerable with their lover, stating that they "can't be [their] father child" but are willing to "try and...drive [them] wild." Ultimately, the song is about giving oneself fully to another person and experiencing the intense pleasure and connection that comes with that.
