I'd like to say, that I was on your mind
So I phone you at ten past three, in the afternoon
It's evening for you, and another bare hotel room
So hard to believe, that you're dreaming of me too
But it's true

You only go around, round, round
You only go around, round, round
You only go around, round, round
You only go around, round, round

And Amsterdam, I never knew you so well
The stadium rings with laughter, at every turn
At flying piano's of all things, to set your scene
I'm such a nice man to you, but so obscene
And it's true girl

You only go around, round, round
You only go around, round, round
You only go around, round, round
You only go around, round, round

Jackie big tits, is hiding in the corner
Respect is the word she shouts, as I implore her
Speaks her mind not me, cause I was only speaking freely
Interrupt me once more, I'll take you to the cleaners

You can't push me around, round, round
You can't push me around, round, round
You only go around, round, round
You only go around, round, round

Jackie big tits

    General Comment:I think it's about someone who's in a relationship with a prostitute. She tells him to respect her and he implores that she give it up. And he's trying to disuade her so he'll 'take her to the cleaners' or sell her out if she doesnt listen to him. And it's like laughable that he's with a prostitute so he can't turn to anybody.

    General Comment:I have a veeeeery different take on this song than all of you guys... Oddly enough, I can see this song very easily being about a bunch of elementary school students making fun of a girl named Jackie for being very developed for her age. I'm totally wrong, but I think it's sort of cool to think about it in this setting...
    "bare hotel room" - she's poor
    "So hard to believe, that you're dreaming of me too
    But it's true" - she's actually having nightmares about being bullied.
    "You only go around, round, round..." -she's being chased in circles, in her dream
    "At Amsterdam, I never knew you so well" - the name of the school is Amsterdam Elementary
    "The stadium rings with laughter, at every turn" - the stadium is the school cafeteria and people laugh as Jackie is chased around the room
    "You only go around, round, round" -they continue to chase her in circles around tables
    "Jackie big tits, is hiding in the corner" -Jackie is chased into a corner where she cowers as the other students point and laugh
    "Respect is the word she shouts, as I implore her" - he approaches and she desperately cries, "RESPECT!"
    "Speaks her mind not me, cause I was only speaking freely"- a teacher approaches to break up the teasing and this is the explanation he offers
    "Interupt me once more, I'll take you to the cleaners" - the teacher walks away, and he turns back to Jackie and violently threatens her
    "You can't push me around, round, round..." -a bunch of students gather and begin to push Jackie around in a circle
    "You only go around, round, round"- she gets away and continues to run in circles
    "Jackie big tits!" - she's cornered once more, and the ringleader of the harassment steps up and divisively points and yells.

    General Comment:Oh -
    Just read that article.
    I think my interpretation fits in with it - he says "Nothing could be further from the truth. I didn't go out with her at all. I mean, a few nights - she's a nice girl - I suppose I had a fling"

    General Comment:I don't think it's a prostitute, it sounds more like a fuck buddy or a friends with benefits.

    If she was a prostitute I don't think "she only goes around, round, round" would carry as much weight.

    And I don't think he is in love with her - when he says "I'd like to say, that I was on your mind\ So I phone you at ten past three, in the afternoon\ It's evening for you, and another bare hotel room" he means that he's hoping she is sitting in an empty bedroom feeling horny for him. So they're calling each other up so they can meet up.

    Again, he wouldn't expect a prostitute to be thinking about him.

    I don't know what the Jackie Big Tits reference means though, I haven't seen that movie.

    General Comment:They reveal that their song Jackie Big Tits is actually a riposte to Mike Batt, Melua's mentor, with whom Pritchard had an angry confrontation one night in Amsterdam. Luke went to the Brit School, where he dated Katie Melua, about whom he wrote most of the band's first album.

    E.ludzenski, that might explain the laughter as well.

    General Comment:AllChokedUp just articulated exactly what I was thinking! He really likes her but begins to think that she's worth less because of her career as a prostitute. So eventually, he starts treating her with less and less respect, like the people she works with do. She becomes offended that he starts treating her that way and demands respect, which in return offends him.

    Does that make any sense?

    General Comment:I kind of got the feeling it was about a relationship in which he was a little ashamed of her, on account of her being a prostitute. And well he loves her more than the other men she 'works' with, he later starts to feel like he's inclined to treat her like they do - with disrespect. Rather than giving her cute pet names or listening to what she has to say, he begins to call her "Jackie Big Tits" & spends the evening "imploring" her (..sexually, of course) and disregarding her demand for respect. But because he sees her as just a prostitute, and perceives that to mean she doesn't deserve respect, he takes her 'demand for respect' as her pushing him around.

    But that's just how I saw it, I know that's wrong though haha.
    Oh & does the beginning sound like those tickle-me-elmo things to anybody else? Haha, cause that's instantly what I thought of when I heard it.
