Hmm. Actually the lyrics don't strike me as overtly sexual. That is OVERTLY. The whole "I'm your fantasy girl, and will do anything you want that gets you off" message is there, albeit ambiguously.
What is very
very interesting is that if you compare DBSK's more recent sexy image to SNSD's, the difference is night and day:
DBSK: Dominant sexy, "I've got YOU under MY Skin"
SNSD: Submissive sexy, "I'm genie for YOUR wish"
Despite the move to a more grownup (?) sexy image, they are still relying on a submissive concept; they are not in control.
This is unfortunate. I had a least hoped with the move to more grown up sounding songs, SNSD would allowed to be more assertive.
I guess that was a false hope. *sigh*
In any case, I cannot WAIT to see this play out in the music video.
EDIT: One thing I wanted to mention was that the genie aspect of this is certainly suggestive, if only because as used here, it refers to what is generally a master/servant or master/slave relationship.
