- Selfish Heart LyricsInfatuation with you
I'd do anything for you
Your shiny lips are pleasin'
But there's no reason for you
No limitations please
All I want is all I can get
Lover why you makin' me play this game of rockin' roulette?
You don't do nothin' but hide your selfish heart
Let me share it with you
I'm gettin' drunk all the time
I'm like a fish on a line over you
You just come and go, I fill one brief hole in your life
I'm just your entertainment you come and play with a while
The complication with you
Is that I know you'll never be true
You're like an act of treason, no rhyme or reason for you
I'd do anything for you
Your shiny lips are pleasin'
But there's no reason for you
No limitations please
All I want is all I can get
Lover why you makin' me play this game of rockin' roulette?
You don't do nothin' but hide your selfish heart
Let me share it with you
I'm gettin' drunk all the time
You just come and go, I fill one brief hole in your life
I'm just your entertainment you come and play with a while
The complication with you
Is that I know you'll never be true
You're like an act of treason, no rhyme or reason for you

✔️
When we interpret the meaning being expressed, the Beat Farmers' 'Selfish Heart' is a song that explores the intricacies of a one-sided love affair, in which the protagonist is madly in love with someone who treats them as a mere source of temporary amusement, pointing out the resulting emotional distress and the self-harming ways of coping. Apart from the various viewpoints that the song brings to the listener, the primary focus is still on heartbreak, angst, despair, reflection and anger. Moreover, the narration also brings to the fore, the existence of infatuation and obsession, selfishness and manipulation, complications and unreliability as well as desperation and risk. The lyrics express themes of infatuation, self-destructive behavior (drinking too much), and emotional manipulation (being used for fun). The wording is suggestive yet not excessively so, and there are no scenes of violence, nudity, or explicit sexual acts. Nevertheless, the adult themes and the mentioning of alcohol consumption are among the reasons for the assignment of a PG-13 rating.
