Yet another line that is taken literally in the music video. Though the bruises on her knees could be interpreted as her begging for something repeatedly, this seems to be alluding more to kneeling down to perform a sexual act. It should be noted that the male subject of this song already has a girlfriend, though this would align with Billie’s boasts in the chorus, in particular being the type to “make your girlfriend mad tight”.
