This one of the Police’s strangest songs. I cite this song straight after yesterday’s song by Dido Life for Rent because apparently it is about a guy submitting to his girlfriend in a relationship but in the final verse he turns the tables on her and she becomes wrapped around his finger. Again these songs capture the more adversarial aspect of boy/girl relationships where both parties are trying to establish dominance over the other rather than acting in love which ideally looks to putting the other person’s interests first.
