She Needs Me is the ninth track from Weezer’s 2021 album “Van Weezer”. The song is about Rivers' wife and how she makes her husband feel manly and valued by asking him for help with everyday tasks.
[Verse 1]
In this big, bad world, there's things I do
When she needs help, I come through
Sometimes, she hands me a jar of Jif
And I feel good when I open it
[Chorus]
She needs me, she needs me
And that's why I need her
She needs me, she needs me
It's us against the world
[Verse 2]
I'm pretty good with a TV remote
When I record her favorite shows
I know how to listen when she's upset
And I keep her warm when she goes to bed
[Chorus]
She needs me, she needs me
And that's why I need her
She needs me, she needs me
It's us against the world
[Post-Chorus]
She's mine, all mine, she's mine, all mine
She like it that way almost all of the time
She's mine, all mine, she's mine, all mine
Don't mess with my girl, no
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
She needs me, she needs me
And that's why I need her
She needs me, she needs me
It's us against the world
[Bridge]
We all need a reason to live
So don't ever fall for the freedom bit
Free as a bird, I flew down that road
Take it from me, it's a horror show
[Chorus]
She needs me, she needs me
And that's why I need her
She needs me, she needs me
It's us against the world
[Outro]
She needs me (She needs me), she needs me (She needs me)
She needs me (She needs me), ooh
She needs me (She needs me), she needs me (She needs me)
And that's why I need her (That's why I need)
She needs me
She Needs Me was written by Rivers Cuomo.
She Needs Me was produced by Suzy Shinn.
Weezer released She Needs Me on Fri May 07 2021.
Weezer’s frontman Rivers Cuomo said to Guitar Player magazine:
And then “She Needs Me” – I don’t know if you can hear it but it’s a little more AC/DC than a regular Weezer song. We tried a bit of “You Shook Me All Night Long” on that one.
