They Might Be Giants - Twisting in the Wind Meaning

Song Released: 1990


Twisting in the Wind Lyrics

She set your goldfish free
And now she's sighing
Blew out your pilot light
And made a wish

She doesn't have to have
Her dB's record back now
But there's not a lot of things
That she'll take back

(She wants) She wants to see you...

    Apparently, there was a bad break-up, and his ex wants him to hang himself... or just die.
    "There's not a lot of things that she'll take back" (Not only objects, but things that were said).
    "She wants to see you again--slowly twisting in the wind". (Hanging by the neck).
