- By God Lyrics / with translationsBy God won't you please just cut out the lights
Suzanne won't you help me to draw the line
Between floozy women and having cigarettes with wine
There seems to be no room here for my laughter
But you never seemed to mind all those nights before
By God won't you please just cut out the lights
But whatever you do
Won't you leave my candle burning
Working for nickel down at the armory
Trying to support my dime life style
The bossman telling me I better get it done
What a way to treat the boy who's your only son
By God won't you please just cut out the lights
But whatever you do
Won't you leave my candle burning
Count your money out on your own time
You stole somebody's heart my dear but it sure as hell wasn't mine
Pick your rags up off my bedroom floor
I done told you one time you're not welcome here no more
By God won't you please just cut out the lights
But whatever you do
Won't you leave my candle burning
By God won't you please just cut out the lights
Suzanne won't you help me to draw the line
Between floozy women and having cigarettes with wine
There seems to be no room here for my laughter
But you never seemed to mind all those nights before
By God won't you please just cut out the lights
But whatever you do
Won't you leave my candle burning
Working for nickel down at the armory
Trying to support my dime life style
The bossman telling me I better get it done
What a way to treat the boy who's your only son
But whatever you do
Won't you leave my candle burning
Count your money out on your own time
You stole somebody's heart my dear but it sure as hell wasn't mine
Pick your rags up off my bedroom floor
I done told you one time you're not welcome here no more
By God won't you please just cut out the lights
But whatever you do
Won't you leave my candle burning
By God won't you please just cut out the lights
Facts about By God
✔️
By God is written by William Zachary Appleby, Shane Alan Cody, Matthew Glen Myers, Katie Toupin.
✔️
It is first released on March 17, 2015 as part of Houndmouth's album "Little Neon Limelight" which includes 11 tracks in total. This song is the 8th track on this album.
✔️
When we try to interpret the meaning, Houndmouth's 'By God' captures a desperate request for a person to cease bribing and dislodging the singer. The words portray a kind of battle from the point of view of personal space vs. the invaders, and this is further illustrated using the metaphor of leaving a candle lit amidst the darkness and the chaos. By God lyrics are mainly about heartbreak, angst, despair, reflection, and anger. The song, however, simultaneously points out the necessity of the fight for self, the disenchantment with love, and the poor economic situation. The lyrics touch on some quite grown-up themes regarding the relationships and the lifestyle choices that come with them, including mentioning of drinking and one's personal struggles, and thus are not appropriate for very young kids. Still, there is nothing like explicit language, violence, or sexual content that would require giving it a higher rating.
