Come On Come Clean
Uncle Ho Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You might even be my favourite human being.
I want to meet you where
If we choose, we can do it; I'm almost there.
I move like I'm asleep.
Everything's solid, still, a kind of fatigue.
But I can feel you rushing me
COME ON WATCH ME SLOWING DOWN.
ONCE AGAIN I'M COMING ROUND.
WHAT IS IT YOU WANT?
COME ON, COME CLEAN.
The glow of things at dusk,
Sometimes I think I'd die for a single touch.
Come on and taste the air,
God, I want to meet you there.
COME ON WATCH ME SLOWING DOWN.
ONCE AGAIN I'M COMING ROUND.
WHAT IS IT YOU WANT?
COME ON, COME CLEAN.
COME ON, LET'S DO IT ONCE AGAIN.
SOON THE MOSS WILL COVER UP OUR NAMES.
WHAT IS IT YOU WANT?
COME ON, COME CLEAN.
Decorated with casualness:
The abyss in my stomach, so much bliss.
The messages you send...
Stage fright, here we go again.
Yesterday's miasma creeps
Round the flowers you intend to keep.
But the sun is breaking through
The fuzzy mist between me and you.
COME ON WATCH ME SLOWING DOWN.
ONCE AGAIN I'M COMING ROUND.
WHAT IS IT YOU WANT?
COME ON, COME CLEAN.
COME ON, LET'S DO IT ONCE AGAIN.
SOON THE MOSS WILL COVER UP OUR NAMES.
WHAT IS IT YOU WANT?
COME ON, COME CLEAN.
The opening verses are essentially an introduction to the singer and their feelings towards their desired person. They start off by acknowledging that it's a strange feeling to have and that the listener might even be their favorite person. The singer is eager to meet this person and although they haven't met yet, they feel like they're almost there. They describe themselves as moving slowly and feeling numb, but the prospect of being with the one they desire makes them feel like they're being rushed off their feet.
The chorus "Come On Come Clean" suggests that there might be some kind of emotional uncertainty or secrecy between the two individuals, and the singer is calling on the listener to be honest about their feelings. They want to know what the person wants and they want it to be out in the open.
The second verse dives deeper into the singer's desire for the person, describing how a mere touch from them could be worth dying for. They want to be in the same space and even taste the air with them, describing a yearning for physical intimacy.
The bridge of the song touches on messages being sent, perhaps implying that there's some kind of distance or indirectness in their communication. The singer admits to feeling stage fright, indicating that confessing their feelings might be an intimidating prospect. The final lines describe a sense of anticipation between the two people, with the sun breaking through a foggy haze, suggesting a hopeful outlook.
