  • Gimme gimme gimme gimmie
    I need more I need more
    Gimme gimme gimmegimmie
    Don't ask what for Don't ask what for

    Sitting here like a loaded gun
    I'm waiting to go off
    I've got nothing to do
    But shoot my mouth off

    Gimme gimme gimme gimmie
    I need more I need more
    Gimme gimme gimme gimme
    Don't ask what for Don't ask what for

    I know the world's got problems
    I've got problems of my own
    They 'ain't the kind that can be solved
    With an atom bomb

    Gimme gimme gimme gimmie
    I need more I need more
    Gimme gimme gimmegimmie
    Don't ask what for Don't ask what for

    You know I gonna go out
    Get something for my head
    If I keep on doing this
    I'm gonna end up dead

    Gimme gimme gimme gimmie
    I need more I need more
    Gimme gimme gimme gimmie
    Don't ask what for Don't ask what for Writer/s: GREGORY REGIS GINN

  • Darren from Charlotte, NcIt's merely about youth angst, I don't think it goes any deeper than that.
  • Heather from Marquette, MiConsidering this song appeared on Emotive, a highly anti-war cover song album, I'm guessing this songs has to deal with the desensitization that ocurrs in a country during a time of War. That's my two cents.
  • Max from Long Beach, NyThe song could most likely be about drugs.but when you say "gimme" you are not just damanding something but it can also stand for greed (not just demand but want).The song could be about a man robbing a bank for all we know.he could want more money.He could be having a drug proublem and need money to support it(dont ask what its for);and saying that the proublem cant be solved with an atom bomb is just saying that his proublem cant be helped.The song is open to interpretation.
