  • Nick from Syracuse, NyWhen I listen to this song I think of it as having the opposite meaning as opposed to what is intended. I thought it was about someone being obsessed with Lady Gaga, and clinging onto her after she hooked up with him. When it says "he ate my heart," I think of that as him consuming her whole, and falling in love with her. Then she says "I wanna just dance, but he took me home instead," which I interpret as she just wanted to hook up, but he ended up getting feelings for her instead. Lastly, the man in the background says "I love that girl," indicating his feelings for her. Obviously that's not what the song was meant to be about, according to Gaga, but that's just how I interpreted it.
  • Jeana from Sterling Heights, MiLMFAO community college days (: this is how i felt a year ago....lmfao...and WALMART!!!
  • Ryan from London (y), United Kingdom'UH-OH there was a Monster in my bed
    We french-kissed on a subway train
    He tore my clothes right off
    He ate my heart and then he ate my brain!'

    This is a great song about a Man whom Lady Ga² met on a subway train; They both knew it was a one-time thing and engaged in sex and they both loved it! It was all about the passion and thie passion comes through in this amazing tune. x
