the song is up-tempo accompanied largely by electric guitar. it is based on a double entendre. the male narrator is at a bar, telling his companions that he has to leave because he "left something turned on at home". he then explains in the chorus that what he left "turned on" was not an appliance, but rather his sexually aroused female partner.
