Love in an Elevator Lyrics
2nd floor...hardware, children's wear, lady's lingerie
Oh, good morning Mr. Tyler, going down?
Workin' like a dog for the boss man
Workin' for the company
I'm bettin' on the dice I'm tossin'
I'm gonna have a fantasy
But where am I gonna look?
They tell me that love is blind
I really need a girl like an open book
To read between the lines
Love In An Elevator
Livin' it up when I'm goin' down
Love In An Elevator
Lovin' it up till I hit the ground
Jackeys in the elevator
Lingerie second floor
She said 'can I see you later
And love you just a little more?'
I kinda hope we get stuck
Nobody gets out alive
She said 'I'll show you how to fax
In the mailroom, honey
And have you home by five'
Love In An Elevator
Livin' it up when I'm goin' down
Love In An Elevator
Lovin' it up till I hit the ground
Elevator
Going down
Haha-haha-haha-haha!
Love In An Elevator
Livin' it up when I'm goin' down
Love In An Elevator
Lovin' it up till I hit the ground
Gonna be a penthouse pauper
Gonna be a millionaire
Gonna be a real fast talker
And have me a love affair
Gotta get my timing right
It's a test that I got to pass
I'll chase you all the way to the stairway honey
Kiss your sassafrass
Love In An Elevator
Livin' it up when I'm goin' down
Love In An Elevator
Lovin' it up till I hit the ground
Meaning of Love in an Elevator
“Love in an Elevator” captures a desperate, almost absurd yearning for connection amidst the mundane and slightly unsettling atmosphere of a downtown office building. Steven Tyler’s Aerosmith delivers a chaotic narrative of a man fixated on a fleeting encounter – a woman he meets in an elevator – fueled by fantasy and a craving for escape from his dead-end job and unfulfilled life. The lyrics detail his yearning, a mix of hopeful optimism (“I really need a girl like an open book”) and unsettling obsession ("Nobody gets out alive"). He envisions a lavish future with her, juxtaposed against his current reality as a “penthouse pauper,” highlighting the vast disparity between his desires and circumstances. The repeated refrain – "Love in an Elevator" – emphasizes the transient nature of this connection, a momentary thrill within a confined, impersonal space, ultimately illustrating a longing for something real amidst a world of manufactured dreams.
