Dial up my number now
Weaving it through the wire
Switch me on, turn me up
Don't want it Baudelaire
Just glitter lust
Switch me on, turn me up
I want to touch you you're just
Made for love
I need la la la la la
I need ooo la la la la
Calls up and round me
Teasing your poetry
Switch me on, turn me up
Oh child of Venus you're just
Made for love
You know I walk for days
I wanna waste some time
You wanna be so mean
You know I love to watch
I wanna love some more
I'll never be the same
A broken heel like a heart
I'll never walk again

    Lyric Correction:This is one of my favourite Goldfrapp songs!

    But one of the lyrics is wrong - it should say "Coils up and round me"

    (I have the CD and the lyrics are printed in the insert - in a very small font, mind you, needed a magnifying glass to be sure 8o)

    General Comment:This song is TOTALLY about a vibrator. Only a few lines don't fit perfectly.

    Dial up my number now
    Weaving it through the wire
    -I originally figured this was a phone number, but things besides phones have numbers and dials and wires.

    Switch me on, turn me up
    -No interpretation necessary

    Don't want it baudelaire
    Just glitter lust
    Switch me on, turn me up
    I want to touch you you're just
    Made for love
    -Another easy interpretation, the last three lines.

    I need la la la la la
    I need ooo la la la la
    Calls up and round me
    Teasing your poetry
    Switch me on, turn me up
    Oh child of venus you're just
    Made for love
    You know I walk for days
    I wanna waste some time
    -Loses me for a bit in the middle, but the vibrator thing is back with "I wanna waste some time"

    You wanna be so mean
    You know I love to watch
    -Watching some materials? Even the mean line fits pretty well.

    I wanna love some more
    I'll never be the same
    A broken heel like a heart
    I'll never walk again
    -From the sound of these lines, it worked.

    General Comment:Does anyone else get the feeling this is about a vibrator?

    "Turn me on, turn me up."
    -- Quite obvious.

    "I want to touch you, you're just made for love."
    --VIBRATOR.

    General Comment:As far as I'm concerned, every Goldfrapp song is about sex. Not trying to take away from a good lyricist, but that's all I hear when I listen to them.

    General Comment:I agree with most people on here...
    This song is pure sex.
    I just can't get enough of the line:
    "A broken heel like a heart... I'll never walk again"

    But if I'm not mistaken...
    A line in the lyrics are incorrect...
    It should be: "Coils up and 'round me"

    Other than that...
    Perfect.

    Goldfrapp is complete genius.

    General Comment:"I don't want it Baudelaire, just glitter lust." Says it all, she doesn't want poetic love making, she wants animalistic, materialistic, and impartial rutting
