Lyrics for Keep Yourself Warm as interpreted by heyjuderefrain

Keep Yourself Warm Lyrics
My hole, I'll get my hole, I'll get my hole
Get my hole, get my hole and I'll find out more.
It's a choo-choo train, a rocket launch
If we have a hormone race
i'm bound to finish first.

Can you see in the dark?
Can you see the look on your face?
The flashing white light's been turned off,
You don't know know who's in your bed.

It takes more than fucking someone you don't know to keep warm.
Do you really think that for a house-beat you'll find your love in a hole?

Oh, you won't find love in a,
Won't find love in a hole.
It takes more than fucking someone to keep yourself warm.

I'm drunk, I'm drunk
And you're probably on pills
If we've both got the same diseases
It's irrelevant girl
And the room fills with steam
Oh, evaporates disappears
My point of entry is the same way
That I leave

Can you see in the dark?
Can you see the look on your face?
The flashing white light's been turned off
You don't know know who's in your bed.

It takes more than fucking someone you don't know to keep warm.
Do you really think that for a house-beat you'll find your love in a hole?

But, you won't find love in a, won't find love in a hole.
It takes more than fucking someone to keep yourself warm.

You won't find love in a, won't find love in a hole.
It takes more than fucking someone to keep yourself-
SEE in the dark!
Can you see the look in your face?
The flashing white light's been turned off
You don't know know who's in your bed.

It takes more than fucking someone you don't know
to keep warm
Do you really think that for a house-beat you'll find your love in a hole?

i'm definitely not sure about some of the lyrics here so if anyone gets the right ones just let me know.

--

i love this song, especially the bit where they just shout SEEEEEEEEE, gets me everytime.
it's nice, a really obvious message it seems, about the hollowness of casual sex.

i think it's
"it's a choo-choo train"....matches the innuendo of "a rocket launch"

also
"if we both GOT the same diseases
it's IRRELEVANT, girl"

For me this song is about casual sex or about someone looking for love in one night stands finding them in night clubs.....Lots of night club references. Steam, Flashing White lights. Pills.

"My hole" - Scottish slang for sex. "I'm gonna get ma hole aff that lassie the night"

"The flashing white light's been turned off,
You don't know know who's in your bed." - For me this is the white strobe light typical of a night club.

after "to keep warm", I think it's
"You'd do anything now for a house beat."
The 'fuck at half speed' thing doesn't make sense, and I KNOW I hear him saying "House-beat" which is another allusion to the club scene.
Lovely song, and painfully truthful.

it is about shallow sex. it's about a stupid guy/girl having sex with random strangers, trying to find love and affection in it all but they are dead lost and dead wrong. they're hoping they'll feel peace and contentment when having sex with these strangers, but they won't because true love is waayyyy more than that.

"Can you see in the dark?"
do they even know who they're having sex with?

"You don't know know who's in your bed."
they don't. she just wants the sex.

"Do you really think that for a house-beat you'll find your love in a hole?"
the singer is obviously disappointed here. he's like 'seriously? are you that stupid to believe all your problems will go away and/or you can finally find love by just having random sex with random people?"

"You won't find love in a, won't find love in a hole."
you won't find love out of nowhere. it doesn't come easily. and it doesn't come in these dirty and shallow of situations.

it's a harsh song but i love it. it's truth.

Why does this song not appear with the rest of the Frightened Rabbit songs under the artist heading on this site?

Brilliant song - the live version with James Graham from The Twilight Sad in it is brilliant.

I hear "Is a choo choo train a rocket launch?"

I think it's a question. I think he's asking if the two are equivalent, just because they are both means of getting somewhere else. He's asking "Is a casual fuck the same as sex in a committed relationship, just because both involve putting dick in pussy?"

Just a thought...

I like the fact that they use the word "fucking" instead of "making love" or "having sex." I think the vulgarity of it adds to the fact that the song is about shallow sex. Powerful.

I always thought it was "a fuck at half speed", as opposed to "for a house beat", but I guess the latter one makes a little bit more sense.

I've also been debating the line "and you're probably on pills". At first I thought that he meant ecstasy, from the fact that he's obviously met her in a dark club with "strobe lights" (and I guess that could be where the "house beat" part fits as well). I've changed my mind now though, I think the pills she's on are contraceptive ones, so he's assuming that because she is so easy she'll be on these. I think this is backed up by the line "If we both have the same diseases, Its irelevant girl", saying that if there's no chance of her getting pregnant and they can't catch any new STDs then why bother using a condom.

I think this song is as much about himself (yourself) as the other person. Its weird to say this, but I got the impression that its him talking to himself, chiding himself for his ways.

To me it seems like it could possibly be the character of the song speaking to his love interest who's with someone else who he knows is probably only in it for the sex and he's telling her that there's more to a relationship than that and that he can show her?

I think I might be reading into it too much based on my own current situation though. I just nearly burst out crying at the song because that's how I heard it.
