Kick It meaning?
Can someone please explain the song to me? I thought "kicking it" is doing drugs but from the lyrics it seems to be the opposite. I don't really get it! Thank you. X

My interpretation was that it was about a bad relationship and she was using drugs as a metaphor for love and that it's hard to "kick" (give up) the relationship just as it's hard to give up drugs. But that's just my interpretation.

She just said that it was a Mike Campbell's song.
However I think that as written in the lyrics it's just "Kicking the habit" in the meaning of quitting something addictive, in this case overtly a not totally healthy love and possibly in a more covert meaning a real addiction. |

I agree with what others have said. I think it has a double meaning of getting out of a relationship that isn't working while also being a metaphor for drugs. I love this song. It's one of my absolute favorites from Street Angel. I especially love the "A strange kind of love affair. A declaration of war" part.
