Background
editThe song is a hard rock song backed by a distorted guitar riff based on power chords and Bret's powerful vocals. Towards the end of the song after the solo, Bret comes in with a distorted vocal that he has utilized in previous songs. The story of the song revolves around lust (a theme similar to those found on Poison songs like "Talk Dirty to Me" and "I Want Action").
