I’ve been biding my time,
Been so subtly kind,
I got to think so selfishly,
‘cos you’re the face inside of me.
I’ve been biding my days,
U see evidently it pays,
I’ve been a friend,
With unbiased views,
Then secretly lust after you.
So now you feel rusty
You’re bored and bemused.
You wanna do someone else,
So you should be by yourself,
Instead of here with me.
Secretly.
Trying hard to think pure,
Bloody hard when i’m raw,
You’re talking out so sexually,
About boys ‘n girls and your friggin’ dreams.
So now you feel lusty,
You’re hot and confused.
You wanna do someone else,
So you should be by yourself,
Instead of here with me.
Secretly.
So now you’ve been busted,
You’re caught feeling used.
You had to do someone else,
You should’ve been by yourself.
You had to do someone else,
You should’ve been by yourself,
Instead of here with me.
Secretly,
Secretly.
Sono già passati 10 anni dall’estate del ‘99… e dall’uscita dell’album Post Orgasmic Chill… di cui questa Secretly fa parte… anzi diciamo che questo brano è la punta di diamante di un album splendido.
Rileggendo il testo mi vengono in mente due pensieri:
- essere sè stessi paga sempre
- le verità, prima o poi, vengono sempre a galla
Dite che anche Skin pensasse alle stesse cose?
