Again & Again Lyrics
Again and again and again
Do it again
Do it again
Again and again

It's a shame, it's a shame
It's a perfect shame
Creep under my door and we do it again, oh

It's easy and easy and easy and easy
And creepy and creepy and creepy, oh
Again, again, again, again

Again and again and again
Do it again
Do it again

Again and again and again
Do it again
Do it again

Again and again

Say my name, say my name, say my stupid name
It's stupid how we always seem to do it again, oh

You're so stupid and perfect
And stupid and perfect
I hate you, I want you
I hate you, I hate you, oh
Again, again, again, again

La, la, la
Again and again and again
Do it again
Do it again

Again and again and again
Do it again
Do it again

Again and again

It sounds to me like a constant back and forth ping pong battle of the sexes. Or just someone in a relationship getting into a fight and how they always get into it again and again but they love eachother anyway.

This song sorta seems to be filled with a friends with benefit connotation. Where the narrarator/singer seems to be in a love/hate relationship with the other person. They have nothing in common and don't get along, but when they're around each other, they just want to rip the other's clothes off. I think we've all been there, to some degree

I think it's about a secret relationship. The video sheds some light on this too. There is a lot of symbolism, such as the white peacock on the piano, which I found can represent Fidelity.

"It's a shame, it's a shame
It's a perfect shame
Creep under my door and we do it again, oh

It's easy and easy and easy and easy
And creepy and creepy and creepy, oh
Again, again, again, again"

Sounds like it's too bad that they can't have their relationship out in the open for some reason and they have to creep around behind everyone's backs, which is easier than making it public and possibly causing problems. In the video they are together, but yet they act like they aren't.

"ay my name, say my name, say my stupid name
It's stupid how we always seem to do it again, oh

You're so stupid and perfect
And stupid and perfect
I hate you, I want you
I hate you, I hate you, oh
Again, again, again, again"

I think this part is about the whole tug of war of not being able to have someone fully, and hating them for it, yet you still want them. And since they can't be together and have to act like they barely know one another, she just wants something, anything like something as simple as her name just to know that they are together and he knows and wants her.

And this is their cycle, they just keep going around &around without the relationship being able to go any further, because they don't allow it.

I take that back, there seems to be an awful lot of meanings behind the peacock. The Peacock also represents pride. Hmm, prehaps their pride is getting in the way of having an open relationship. Neither will open up first and say how they really feel.

i feel the song is like they keep fighting and then having make-up sex but it happens frequently.

I feel like it's about someone having sex with someone else, and getting tired of it's repetitveness. "Say my name /Say my name/Say my stupid name/It's so stupid and perfect" To me, that's like her saying she's so sick of the monotany of it all, of the sex. And she hates him for it, but at the same time she "loves" him because she wants this sporadic sex as well.

i think that this song is about the relationship between a woman and an older man. They have to keep thier relationship a secret because society views thier relationship as creepy. It's easy for them to like each other but it's creepy for them to actually go through with it and have a relationship.

I agree with sploish. I think that she is having an affair with somebody and he will come over and they do it again. It's a very easy thing for them to pull off and she hasn't gotten caught yet, but she still thinks that what they are doing is wrong and she feels guilty about it, she can't stop though because she sees nothing but perfection in this guy. She hates herself for what she's doing, and she hates him for the same reason too, but she still can't stop because there's always something that draws her back to him. When they're having sex though, she wants him to say her name so that she knows he's not thinking about somebody else and truly cares for her.

OR (I have a second idea), it could be about her and her boyfriend. All she wants is for somebody that will treat her well and respect her for who she is, but her current boyfriend doesn't care about any of that. He just wants one thing, sex. She hates him for that because that's no what she wants at all. She wants a real relationship, not just a "fuck-buddy". She will always come back to him though, not matter what, knowing damn well that all he's going to want is sex.

When I heard this song I thought it was possibly an affair.
The lyrics seem like two people can't stand each other but they keep getting together again, having sex again.
The video, the woman and the man in the back of Greg and Inara, were dancing crazily then they went back to normal and walked their own ways. Seems to be symbolism for a relationship, where its only sex then nothing more. They keep crossing paths, hitting the sack then leave.

I don't see why it has to be a "secret relationship"
it seems to me like its just something she is saying to her partner during sex

I agree with Boomer83. To me this song fits perfectly with a relationship between two people that doesn't work, yet the two people always try it again and again. Probably because when they see each other they are extremely attracted to one another.

the peacock = symbolizing pride.
its a relationship that could be torn by the environment around it. funny, because well, the girl that introduced me to this band, is in the EXACT situation as the song.

either way. very bittersweet song.

This was the perfect song to listen to as I drove home after having wild, funny, way too passionate sex with a guy who didn't like me as much as I liked him.
I always played the "we're just friends" card. He was younger than me and I always assured him that we were just messing around and I had no real feelings for him but thought he was smart, funny and would make a great boyfriend for a girl his age.
Until the day of my Dad's funeral. I left my family and got really drunk at a bar, then called him to come get me. I had never made a single demand on him until then. He took me home and put me to bed. After that, we messed around for a bit, but when we were having sex we would look deep into each others eyes and we both knew things had become uncomfortable. It was silently acknowledged that he had a place in my life that was much more intimate to me than I had revealed.
I like that song. It illustrates the fun, exciting time before he knew how much I liked him.
