Mitski – I Bet On Losing Dogs lyrics

Mitski – I Bet On Losing Dogs lyrics

My baby, my baby
You're my baby, say it to me
Baby, my baby
Tell your baby that I'm your baby

I bet on losing dogs
I know they're losing and I pay for my place
By the ring
Where I'll be looking in their eyes when they're down
I'll be there on their side
I'm losing by their side

Will you let me, baby
Lose on losing dogs
I know they're losing and I pay for my place
By the ring
Where I'll be looking in their eyes when they're down

I wanna feel it
I bet on losing dogs
I always want you when I'm finally fine

How you'd be over me looking in my eyes when I cum
Someone to watch me die
Someone to watch me die
I bet on losing dogs

I personally think the song reflects being in love with someone who doesn't truly love you back or at least that's how I imagine it while listening to it. "Tell your baby that I'm your baby" could reference Mitski's supposed lover in the song moving on from her and dating someone new but still playing with Mitski's heart and refusing to truly let her be free from the relationship. The whole idea of betting on losing dogs makes me think that she contentiously bets on a crumbling relationship that had no hope in the first place. "Will you let me, baby Lose on losing dogs I know they're losing and I pay for my place" Her asking "Will you" also makes me think that it might have been a controlling relationship. "Paying for my place" could reflect her paying the price emotionally for holding on to the already dying relationship. These are just my personal takes on the lyrics so please take this with a grain of salt :)
