* analysis (song, line)

a favorite song of mine is kylie morgan's "break things". 
the best line is as follows:

"don't hand me the keys to your pickup truck

cuz i drive like i drink and i only drink from plastic cups." 

---------------------analysis/translation:---------------------

"don't hand me the keys to your pickup truck..." means: 

"don't give me your valuables (things like your heart) that 

i'm not asking for and i'm not ready for."

hint (in fact, only a beta-boy would do that).

"make me prove that i'm ready for the keys."

hint (i might not ever be). 

"cuz i drive like i drink..." means: 

"i run my show hard and strong. 

sometimes, things get tipsy. 

i might lose my inhibitions, and get crazy

(horny, angry, vulnerable, close, distant, etc.).

buckle-up."

"...and i only drink from plastic cups." means: 

"i'm better with the unbreakable. 

i'm a country gal. 

i like cowboys."

• of course, her line about "i kinda like you, and i like where this is going, but..." has the word "but" negating the prior sentence. in it, she's warning him (about "not getting too close") but i wonder if she's also warning herself: protecting herself from the pain of a break-up by not falling too fast.
