The 1975 * Track #5 On The 1975 (Deluxe)

Sex Lyrics

[Verse 1]
And this is how it starts
Take your shoes off in the back of my van
Yeah, my shirt looks so good
When it's just hanging off your back
And she said, "Use your hands and my spare time
We got one thing in common, it's this tongue of mine"
She said, oh
She's got a boyfriend anyway

[Verse 2]
There's only minutes before I drop you off
All we seem to do is talk about sex
She's got a boyfriend anyway
She's got a boyfriend anyway
I loved your friend when I saw his film
He's got a funny face, but I like that 'cause he still looks cool
She's got a boyfriend anyway
She's got a boyfriend anyway

[Bridge]
Now we're on the bed in my room
And I'm about to fill his shoes
But you say no, you say no
Does he take care of you?
Or could I easily fill his shoes?
But you say no, you say no

[Verse 3]
Now we're just outside of town
And you're making your way down
She's got a boyfriend anyway
She's got a boyfriend anyway
And I'm not trying to stop you, love
If we're gonna do anything, we might as well just fuck
She's got a boyfriend anyway
She's got a boyfriend anyway

[Outro]
Got your tongue pierced anyway
You in your high-tops any day
You in your skinny jeans anyway
You and your fit friends anyway
I'd take them all out any day
They all got backcombs anyway
They all got boyfriends anyway

What did The 1975 say about "Sex"?

“Sex” is a love letter to every prudish 17-year old girl. Everyone’s been there with that indecisive, flirty girl who just can’t make her mind up. It gets labeled as being quite brash, but it’s very romantic. That’s me at my most romantic, anyways, so maybe it’s a reflection of what I’m like as a pe...

What was the City or the place where this song first writing?

It’s possible that the original album/IV EP were one big, coherent story that took place London, England. This could mean that “just outside of town” is referring to him out in a different city, hooking up with the girl he’s in love with.

What else have the artists said about the song?

“Sex” is constantly evolving around the initial guitar riff. It’s not actually got a chorus, which is strange for such big song. I wanted a piece of pop music that relied on tension and a lack of resolve. Songs like “Piano Phase” by Steve Reich or “All My Friends” by LCD Soundsystem. It’s all about...
