Settle down, don't settle down without me, no, no
Settle down, I'll settle down for good, yeah
Settle down, I'll settle down around you, yeah, yeah
Settle down, I'll settle down for sure, yeah

Whatever I can do, I will
'Cause I'm good like that
For seven years, seven days, and seven hours
I took my chances, yeah
Whatever I can do, I will
'Cause I want

Never lose that feeling
Never lose that feeling

Settle down, I'll settle down around you, yeah, yeah
Settle down, I'll settle down for good, yeah
Settle down, don't settle down without me, no, no
Settle down, I'll settle down for sure, yeah

Never lose that feeling
Never, no, no
Never lose your feelings
Never, that's for sure

Never lose that feeling
Never lose that feeling
Never lose that feeling
Never lose that feeling
Never lose that feeling
Never lose that feeling

Whatever I can do, I will
'Cause I want to, and what I want I get
Seven years, seven days, and seven hours
I took my chances, yeah

Settle down, don't settle down without me, no, no
Settle down, I'll settle down for good, yeah
Settle down, I'll settle down around you, yeah, yeah
Settle down, I'll settle down for sure, yeah

Never lose that feeling
Never, no, no, no

    General Comment:I think this song is about a boy who gets a late start on life and all his friends are moving on.

    He really wants their company so he urges them to wait for him...

    But they have their own aspirations..

    It's like the situation I'm in now, it hits close to home...

    General Comment:i think a lot of billy's songs are about a general feeling rather than an actual event or even idea... lot's of times, the lyrics are just words that go well with the music, making it powerful, but not specific... too bad billy hates zwan now because i love their music

    General Comment:7 Virtues, 7 sins - I think the seven virtues makes more sense in the context of this song, but the whole idea of 7 conveys a religiousness and supernaturalness, whether positive or negative. And if there has been something that has been present in Corgan's work, from start to finish, it's been an almost fixation with religion, with God. For example, in Bullet With Butterfly.. he declares "Jesus was the only son...I still believe that I cannot be saved". And in the Zwan album it seems almost to be a renewal of faith. So overall, it could be both. Even without the reference to seven, we can see that Corgan is intensely aware of his own mortality and its relevance to religious faith/God. More than whether it's a virtue/vice, that is perhaps most important to take into account.
