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 for a fuck at half-speed 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 for a fuck at half-speed 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 for a fuck at half-speed you'll find your love in a hole?

    General Comment:I think the whole song is a reference to the casual sex culture.

    'My hole' refers to having sex with someone (it's a Scottish slang term)
    and when he says 'You won't find love in a hole' it basically means you won't find love sleeping around.

    I think that the 'Pills' reference is to do with drugs, probably E .

    Great song :D

    General Comment:"Do really think that for a house-beat you'll find your love in a hole"

    I think this is a clever switch of words - instead of 'in a heart-beat' he has continued to portray the essence of the nightclub referenced several times in the song: house-beat, as in the beat of house/techno music. This fits in with the imagery of flashing white lights and steam

    General Comment:i think this song is about a girl avoiding going on a relationship him, with whom she's actually in love, because she is afraid of what she may find, afraid of getting hurt or afraid of making a mistake. you know. and she'd rather "fuck someone".

    that's why he sings "you won't find love in a hole". a hole is something empty, that is to say, something useless, something that won't take her anywhere.

    what i can't see is whether he's doing the same or not. when he says "my hole, i'll get my hole, i'll get my hole" he probably means he's waiting for her. but then when he says "i'm drunk, i'm drunk and you're probably on pills. if we've both got the same diseases... it's irrelevant, girl" he's probably admiting they're both doing the same, going to bed with different people instead of facing they're in love and giving themselves a chance.

    General Comment:I love this song! It's so good. It's really about a guy and a girl having sex... obviously.
    But there's more to feeling whole, to feeling love than just fucking someone random.
    It's truly great. You'll get it if you just listen to the lyrics! :)

    General Comment:Interesting that no-one has mentioned the two uses of "hole" that I figured were in use here (didn't know about the Scottish slang):

    1) literally, a vagina
    2) "in a hole" - being stuck in a desperate situation, with no easy way of escape

    General Comment:Does anyone know why this song does not show up on the main "Frightened Rabbit" page? I always have to search for it via the song title option.

    My Interpretation:Actually, the song is about a girl. He says so in the song: "It's irrelevant girl".

    He wouldn't refer to himself as a girl, and if he was referring to everybody he wouldn't put that lyric there.

    It is about a girl, that probably hurt him.

    General Comment:Good song, and I agree.. painfully beautiful. It's not just about girls having casual sex, dummies. This pertains to both genders, obviously. wth?

    My Interpretation: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.
