The streets always brackin’, I can never show weakness
Fresh off the M charge, rah, I beat it
Always kept a straight face, I never showed ’em …

Blood money or die, Blood money or die

Aaah
I want to share your mouthful46
I want to do all the things your lungs do so well47
I’m gonna bed into you like a cat beds into a beanbag48
Turn you inside out and lick you like a crisp packet49
Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
You’re the first and last of your kind50
(Pull me like an animal out of a hole!)51
I wanna be every lever you pull
And all showers that shower you52
Gonna paw paw at you
Like a cat paws at my woolen jumper53
Be your Min Pin54
And borrower of handsome trivia
Hey!
Ooh, devour me55
Aaah
Lou Lou, let the cover girls sing
Hey!
Do, do do do, do do do do
Do do do, do do do, do do do do, do do
Do, do do do, do do, do do, do do
Do do do, do do
All hand claps
You will clap
(Let me be the wallpaper that papers up your room)
I want to be every button you press56
And all the baths that surround you
Yes, I’m gonna roll around you
Like a cat rolls around saw-dusted patios
I’m gonna kiss you like the sun browns you57
Hey!
Oh oh oh oh oh devour me
Oh oh oh oh oh oh devour me
Oh oh oh oh oh (Oh oh oh oh oh)
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh (Oh oh oh oh oh)
If you really think that you can stomach me58
Hey hey!
Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
I want every other freckle59
I want every other freckle
I want every other freckle
I want every other freckle
I want every other freckle
I want every other freckle
I want every other freckle
I want every other freckle

Alt-J has a bizarre way of phrasing lyrics. Sharing a mouthful is making out.
The function of the lungs is to source clean air to the body and keep a human breathing well. Alt-J uses this language to figuratively say he (the song is written from a man’s perspective) wants to run through a beloved girl’s body.
A cat is always able to enjoy resting with a beanbag. It’s quite cozy. Similarly, the man wants to get cozy with a lady.
Again, the literal value of these lyrics is very minimal. Alt-J is trying to create the impression that the man wants to be with the woman.
Alt-J references the uniqueness and individual beauty of the lady when they say “you’re the first and last of your kind.”
An animal doesn’t like being pulled out of its hole until it realizes that the one doing the pulling has no ill intentions.There is an odd combination between desire and resistance to which Alt-J alludes.
The man wants to be everywhere in the woman’s life. He wants to be her motivation for living life.
Pawing at someone can refer to sex, but Alt-J does not intend to refer to sex in any kind of raunchy way here.
A Min Pin is a small type of dog.
The man invites the woman to enjoy a creepy type of intimacy with him.
Again, it is clear that the man wants to be a reason for the lady to wake up in the morning. He wants to be her driving purpose.
Using the metaphor of a playful cat and a sun that tans people, the man further describes his desire to be an influential part of the woman’s life.
Here the man shares that the lady might not be able to handle his odd style of love.
To experience 50% of the freckles on a person’s body is to enjoy a very thorough intimacy.
This song is about wanting somebody, but wanting them in a strange way.

Personally I think this is a love song and its stressing how they would like to be with them everywhere they go and connect in a deep, compassionate way. But alt j lyrics are always a little odd so you have to look at the big picture and just listen. (Alt j forever, man.)

This song is about sex.

The Minpin is a reference to a book about tiny people by Dahl, the borrower is a book reference to tiny people too. I think he is just implying he would like to go everywhere with her.
