Code Red
Some say that I will and some say I won't
Victory is an elusive whore
She is as easily mine
As she is your's
Slip and slide my way through this charade
I know all the players
And I must say
Do this long enough
You get a taste for it
I'll do this last one and I'll grow me some wine
Leave them troubled boys all behind
What you stole, I would have given freely
Code red
You're staring
Code red
Staring at me
Well sometimes he do and sometimes he don't
Sometimes I love myself best alone
Do this long enough
You get a taste for it
A six pack of Coke and a bottle of Jack
"Whatever you do," he said
"Look after that."
Yeah well being trusted and lusted
It could be worse than that
Come on baby
I can drink you down
Then I have my job to do and do well
Since you won't give guarantees
I'll be cashing out
I'll do this last one and I'll grow me some wine
Leave them troubled boys all behind
Said, I'll do this last one and I'll grow me some wine
Leave them troubled boys all behind
What you stole, I would have given freely
Code red
Staring
Code red
Staring
At me
I think this song is about promiscuity and I think the background emotion to this is post-break-up honestly. When a lot of women have that, "I wanna get over him quickly." mentality and they sleep around to try to forget about their true feelings. When she says, "What you stole, I would have given freely." she's in theory, saying that he never got a hold of her, she just likes to have a good time. Trying to escape emotional attachment. I think the prominent "Code red! Staring at me!" is the truth in the song behind the denial, in that, she truly is hurting and wants this one person and it makes her heart stop for a second to see him.
