Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can feel the presence of someone
Somebody's
Been sleeping in my bed
Somebody's
Been sitting in my chair
They ate up all my food
Don't ell me it was a woman
'Cause a woman don't eat that much
My brand-new silk pajamas (such a shame)
They been balled-up in the chair
My mind ain't playing tricks on me
Lord help him if he's still here
Somebody's
Been sleeping in my bed
Oh, somebody's
Been sitting in my chair
Cigarettes in my ashtray
And I don't even smoke
Somebody's been in my best booze
I can tell 'cause the seal is broke
I left my bedroom slippers (such a shame)
Last night at the foot of my bed
And now they're in my living room (such a shame)
And my bed was left unmade
Somebody's
Been sleeping in my bed
Oh, somebody's
Been sitting in my chair
Fe, Fi, Fo, Fum
I can feel the presence of someone
Fe, Fi, Fo, Fum
I can feel the presence of someone
Somebody's
Been sleeping in my bed
Somebody's
Been eating up my food
Oh, somebody's
Been walkin' in my shoes
Lord, somebody's
Been sitting in my chair
Somebody
in this song is realizing that someone has been intruding on their personal space while they were away. They notice that someone has been sleeping in their bed, sitting in their chair and eating their food. They also realize that someone has been smoking in their house, as there are cigarettes in their ashtray even though they don't smoke. The singer suspects that this is a man, as a woman wouldn't eat as much as they did. They also notice that their silk pajamas have been balled up on the chair, and their bedroom slippers are in the living room.
The song is about the feeling of violation that comes with realizing that someone has invaded your personal space. The singer is uncomfortable with the idea that someone has been in their home without their permission, and that they have consumed their belongings. The song has a bluesy soulful feel, with an emphasis on the strong vocals and the repetition of the phrase "Fe, Fi, Fo, Fum" adding to the ominous tone of the song.
