Yeahp like it or not.
Like a ball and a chain.
All I want to do is get off, I feel it for a minute babe.
Hot diggity dog, I love god all the same.
But all i wanna do is get off, I feel it, I feel it, I feel it babe.

Baby, come on yeah, If you have a hard time gettin' there, maybe you're gone.
If you find, you find yourself forget yourself.

Yeah maybe I fought.
One thought I was saved.
But all I wanna do is get off,
and feel it for a minute like the real thing baby, I guess.
I already forgot, what I thought I would say.
But all i wanna do is get off. I feel it, I feel it, I feel it babe.

Baby, come on yeah. If you have a hard time gettin' there, maybe you're gone.
If you find, you find yourself, forget yourself.
Hey, come on yeah. If you have a hard time gettin' there, maybe you're gone.
If you find, you find yourself forget yourself.

And like it or not, Like a ball and a chain.
All I wanna do is get off.
And feel it for a minute like the real thing baby, oh yes.
I already forgot, what I thought I would say.
But all I wanna do is get off, I feel it, I feel it, I feel it babe.

Baby, come on yeah. If you have a hard time gettin' there, maybe you're gone.
If you find, you find yourself, forget yourself.
Hey, Come on yeah, If you have a hard time gettin' there, maybe your gone.
If you find yourself, forget yourself. Hey!

    General Comment:At first glance I thought it was about sex but when I read the lyrics for it (slightly different to what's written here) , the first thought was nope this is a ?heroin song if ever I've seen one.

    General Comment:I've heard some good points for why this song is about herion, but personally I think it's just about living a care-free lifestyle.

    "hot diggity dog
    i love god all the same
    but all i wanna do is get off"

    He says, sure, he's not morally devoid, but all he really cares about is having a good time, not necessarily sex or drugs. This is a topic the dandy warhols touch on a lot. Just sorta living the rock n' roll life, just for the reason that they feel like it.
