A mixture of creepiness and anger combine to form “Gentlemen,” the stalker point of view story with double meanings that refer back to a bad relationship.
The lyrics and vocalizations take on the perspective of a stalker following a girl. The stalker has fallen in love with the girl, calls her and...
[Verse 1]
We never met, you and I
We were always inside
We were somewhere inside one another
And I'll live without you, love
But what good is one glove without the other?
Still you only ask about my leaving
Oh but, honey, I had no choice
So I call and
(When you hear that heavy breathing)
For that sound of your voice
[Chorus]
But you sit there silent, folded arms
And look down as I walk by
My face has changed
You know it's me
You know by the stillness in my eyes
Come and whisper in my ear
"You're very pretty, dear," and, and
"It'll be alright."
You're lying!
But I don't mind tonight
[Verse 2]
So I wander and I wander
Your absence beating inside my chest
I try but I can't remember
The color of your eyes
Just the shape of your dress!
And through a garden overgrown
Oh, it's a long walk home
I said I'd not come back
Well I'm coming back
And you'd better be alone
[Chorus]
Sit there silent, folded arms
And you smile as I walk by
My face has changed
But you know it's me
You know it's me!
Come and whisper in my ear
"My dear! My dear!"
It'll be alright
It'll be alright
It'll be alright
It'll be alright
It'll be alright
It'll be alright
It'll be al- no, no!
