The Shins: Girl Inform Me Meaning
Girl Inform Me Lyrics
your clever eyes could easily disguise
some backwards purpose
it's enough to make me nervous.
Do you harbor sighs, or spit in my eye?
But your lips when we speak
are the valleys and peaks of a mountain...
-
It's a love song --
"Girl inform me all my senses warn me
Your clever eyes could easily disguise
Some backwards purpose
It's enough to make me nervous.
Do you harbor sighs, or spit in my eye"
He can't tell whether or not she likes him as much as he likes her and is hoping to find out. Not knowing makes him nervous and he wants to know if she sighs lovingly at the thought of him or if she spits at the thought of him, doesn't like him very much.
"But your lips when we speak
Are the valleys and peaks of a mountain range on fire.
So let me walk these coals till you believe
I can cut the mustard well enough
Cause you know as soon as breathe we scrutinize"
When the two of them talk, she spits all kinds of insults at him but he'll take all she can throw at him just to prove that he is good enough.
"Unknown quotients, you must be using potions
How else could you tie my head to the sky
This new convection has left me wondering why
I can't concern myself with ordinary tripe."
Her love is like a spell, he doesn't know how she gets him so dreamy and all, he wonders why he can't focus on everyday things.
