Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Spin the wheel
And see what you get
Spin the wheel
I know you wanna be a predator
Not much to do
When you live in the

Ghost world

Alien in my head
Alien in my head
Alien in my head
Alien in my head

And why won't you leave?
I don't want you to

Off your axis
Souped-up face
I got my steel wool in my pocket
With the turbo engine
Cause I got to escape
Because I got to escape

The ghost world

Alien in my head
Alien in my head
Alien in my head
Alien in my head

And why won't you leave?
I don't want you to

Alien in my head
Alien in my head

Alien in my head
Alien in my head

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Come On in My Kitchen" by V.M. Bhatt and N.Ravikiran seem to explore the notion of being trapped in a state of mind which is beyond one's control. The opening lines, "Spin the wheel and see what you get, I know you wanna be a predator" suggests that life is all about chance and fate, and that one must be willing to take risks to succeed. This is followed by the recurring motif of the "ghost world", which could be interpreted as a metaphor for a state of consciousness that is troubled or unfocused.

The line "Alien in my head" suggests that there is an intrusive force that is causing disturbance to the singer's peace of mind. The refrain "And why won't you leave? I don't want you to" is an intriguing one because it suggests that the singer is not entirely at odds with this mind-altering force, and perhaps even feels a sense of comfort in its presence. The final lines of the song, "Off your axis, souped-up face, I got my steel wool in my pocket with the turbo engine, cause I got to escape" could be understood as a call to action to escape from this world of incoherent thoughts and negative energies.
