The song closes the third episode of Sex Education Season 3. It plays over a cross-cut montage of characters Jackson, Adam and Eric.
The lyrics reflect Eric’s unprecedented complacency found in Adam’s aversion towards having sexual intercourse with Eric due to Adam not feeling ready:
And you don’t...
Any of you motherfuckers got something to say
You better come out right now and say it
Any of you can name a single thing that I owe you
Just show me the debt and I'll pay it
I guess not
That's what I thought
All I really got is my sense of myself
But that's a whole heck of a lot
And I don't mean to be rude
But a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do
And you don't blame the frying pan if you try and pick it up when the handle's too hot
Oo-oo-ooh
Oo-oo-ooh
Oo-oo-oo-ooh
