Lyrics and their meaning:

I don't wanna think about a moment with you
I'm kinda hopin' for forever forever
I've been dreaming about a knitted sweater for two
God dammit, we look good together

The protagonist lives in the present and thinks nothing of the past. They want to be serious. Some couples get a two headed knitted sweater (jumper for my fellow Aussies), and that's what they want to do with their partner. 

Would you wait, a moment
Ringing the bell for last call
Would you wait, a moment
Just give me a second, that's all

Honestly, I don't understand these lyrics. This is where I need your input, comment what you perceive these lyrics as!

Talk fast, romance
Won't last, I'm okay with that
Burn, crash, romance
I'll take what I can get from you
Talk fast, romance
Won't last, I'm okay with that
Burn, crash, romance
I'll take what I can get from you

This chorus shares the intimacy of a fling (and sometimes a relationship). It shows the shortness of it and how it goes up in flames if you try to make it work. 

Leave all of your indecisions with you at home
Don't say you're doing me a favor
Why so complicated, won't you throw me a bone?
I want your love in every favor

The protagonist is saying for their partner to let loose and just have fun. They're there to please the partner.

Ringing the bell for last call
Ringing the bell for last call
Ringing the bell for last call
Ringing the bell for last call

I guess this line is the protagonist trying to make it the last time they go out or hook up with their partner. 

Yay or nay: Absolute YAY!

What it Reminds me of: This is such a fun loving 80s inspired song. It's almost the story of a fling in three minutes which I believe is pretty cool!
