i think that every song off room on fire and is this it is extremley relevent to teenage love lust and thats why the strokes are so popular, theyre like soundtracks.

The Strokes – Meet Me In The Bathroom Lyrics 15 years ago
thank you!! that is the image i got too, with the girl in control.

'yes i once was mine'
i think is him feeling used

and i also think that she could be already attached, which is why they are having sex in the bathroom, and 'things will change once he's dead' is because he's fucking her in the hope that she will one day leave her current boyfriend for him.

The Strokes – Automatic Stop Lyrics 15 years ago
i think its just a clever song about being pissed off when a girl has dumped him

cos it starts full of cliches
So many fish there in the sea/I wanted you, you wanted me/That's just a phase/moving too fast

then he 'got a different view' and the song becomes bitter
'I'm not you friend,
I never was'
thats like a bitter reply when someone breaks up and says, 'can we still be friends?'

and then the 'she wanted him, he wanted me' line...
expressing his confusion and slight amusment at the situation beacuse he was dumped by some girl he didnt even really like for a guy who likes guys???? hmmmm

The Strokes – Barely Legal Lyrics 15 years ago
this song is about being young in general to me.

'i didn't take no shortcuts...'
that verse is about everyhting he's pissed about at home, like he talks about his mama and sister, and the trenchcoat line i think is his mother telling him what to wear, like a trenchcoat is a mothers favorite cos its smart but not considered cool by the speaker so a young person wouldn't wear it.
'i should've worked much harder...'
that verse is about him having regrets about school and hating his job.
then the repeated choruses are about a relationship he had when he was young which he sees as significant, and obviously they're about sex aswel like nearly all strokes songs


this is by far my fave of allllll their songs it is friggin amazing.
