Love this song.  The bassline sounds freakin cool.  I think I got the timing right, it's
just played faster than it looks here.

The character in this song is talking about how a night of bar hopping and failure after failure with each girl he talks to has left him frustrated, dizzy, broke, and angry. I love how HHH's music is so blatantly sexy, yet, just about every song on "Make Up..." is about insecurity and social disaster. The nonsensical jammering of the lyrics and stuttering delivery also help drive the theme of the song home.

Yep. He's basically failing at life; losing at everything he tries and just as he's licking his wounds, she shoots his 'injured body' down; ignoring his 'inviitations' and he expects a rivarly with a new guy who's playing the same game but winning and gaining her favor. ah.. hm.

its about a guy where everything is going wrong and he's thinking 'how could this get any worse' and then his girlfriend ends up breaking up with him ("Oh Goddamnit, I think i've lost you").

We base our interpretations on our own feelings, and I just so happen to think "I've lost it" means he's lost the control he once had of the situation and "I've lost you" is an obvious side-effect of losing control. My situation involves losing control of the situation and making a fool of myself because I realized I lost her a long time ago. 1
