Lyrics:
Toss your dirty shoes in my washing machine heart
Baby, bang it up inside
I'm not wearing my usual lipstick
I thought maybe we would kiss tonight
Baby will you kiss me already and
Toss your dirty shoes in my washing machine heart?
Baby, bang it up inside
Baby, though I've closed my eyes
I know who you pretend I am
I know who you pretend I am
Do mi ti
Why not me?
Why not me?
Do mi ti
Why not me?
Why not me?
Do mi ti
Why not me?
Why not me?

“And in case I don’t see you, good afternoon, good evening, and good night.”

[@rbartx1690]

I love the image of the clam & pearl turning to needles & her caressing the lifeless, cold cast of an idealized male figure. I think this song is about lust, but also a deep desire to be accepted & actually loved, to not be the idealized, lifeless statue but the real flesh and blood and flawed self. The sudden change of the pearl to needles shows the hostility and alienation of her sexuality she feels about not being the one he really wants, as she clings to the false image of him.

[@fossilfighters101]

[@itsrainingmelons6202]

So the title of the song essentially means, "use me"

[@rbartx1690]

@@itsrainingmelons6202 Sort of, but I think Mitski's songs are usually a bit more complex than just like, exploit me / exploit him. They tend to be about mutually flawed relationships (i.e. Mitski refuses to see this man for who HE is, and clings to a idealized form even as she desperately wishes he would love her for who SHE is. She is explicitly sexual in this video, but her sexuality is prickly, fickle, hostile -- a pearl turned to needles when you try to touch it. Same with "Nobody" -- it's about isolation that is a result of other people, well, not being around you, but also about isolating yourself. It's reciprocal.) -- IMO, of course.

I like how it sounds like a washing machine, she’s a genius. Edit: PEOPLE PEOPLE. THE SONG DOES NOT ACTUALLY COME OUT OF MY WASHING MACHINE. (That would be very cool though) I meant that the beat of the song reminds me of the sounds that a washing machine *can* make (opening or shutting the door) as well as the heavy guitar in the background which kind of mimics the humming sound a washing machine sometimes makes when it’s on. But mostly the melody Mitski is using is very interesting because it goes: (start)/up/down a bit/down/more down/up a bit/up This sequence kind of has a going round-and-round pattern, which reminded me of a washing machine, if that makes sense :)

I feel like she is talking about how she is being used by everyone around her hence the "washing machine heart" bit and how nobody will really give her a chance hence the "kiss me already" and "I thought we would kiss tonight" bit. I also thought the " kiss me already" bit was how she was desperate for people to see her as more than a stepping stone or a doormat. but the " and toss your dirty shoes in my washing machine heart" bit was when she finally accepted that, that was what people saw her as. the I know what you pretend I am is how people perceive her as a tool or something to use like a washing machine and the why not me bit is how she thinks she isn't in their league and is just something they can just use and throw away

I’m getting the impression that this is sung from the perspective of a mistress to a married man, but she’s in love with him while he is only using her for pleasure. “Why not me?” Why won’t he acknowledge their “love” and marry her when he says that he desires her so much. He uses her love to distract himself from his unfulfilling marriage, and therefore he uses her “washing machine heart” (her love and care) to “clean his dirty shoes” (wash away the bitterness he feels from his marriage, but he only uses her for that and nothing more and doesn’t intend to settle down with her).

The song is called washing machine heart if you listen carefully you can hear the references to heartbeats and washing machines, for examples the heartbeats can be the bangs we heard at the beginning 0:00 and 0:07 and you can hear the washing machine in 0:02 and 2:04, also 0:38 and 1:50 are possibles references to washing machine alarms, mitski music genius Edit: This isnt confirmed its something that I found interesting to point, maybye mitski and producers didnt made it with that intentions.

BRO, I never realized the melodies played by a synth in between were possible references to a washing machine, that is awesome.

[@residentsharkenjoyer1690]

I believe this song is about a toxic relationship that the singer is blindly unaware of, the singer is going down to the level of an inanimate appliance, like she feels inhuman around them, which she is blindly following, and it says "toss your dirty shoes in my washing machine heart" which could be a metaphor for the other person taking his emotions out on the singer, which is really sad when peel away the layers

[@moriahhiggs4604]

i think she’s aware the relationship is toxic because in the first line she tells him to toss his shoes in her washing machine heart. she knows she’s only being used as his rebound of sorts and the “why not me?” is her asking why she isn’t more than his object to be used. like he’s using her as a stepping stone so he can improve himself for someone else, but not improving himself for her. she’s just a part of his way to get there. at least that’s what i was getting from it.

[@kaliceisthecoolest]

Theory: "do mi ti" the lyrics used to explain the notes she sings for the next lyrics "why not me" can also be representative of the singer crying. When most people audibly cry its a high pitch or whine (do) followed by an inhale (mi) and another whine (ti). "why not me" could also be viewed as the singer crying them because of the style at which she does so. Okay that's all thank you :)

Pretty sure the song is about a housewife who wants to be loved by her husband romantically but instead she’s only used for sex and chores. Her husband even thinks about somebody else when he’s having sex with her, and she wishes he cared and thought about her instead of neglecting her emotions.

[@spinno3238]

i haven't focused entirely on the lyrics but i've always assumed it's about someone who wants to be viewed sexually by their partner and have that connection, but their partner doesn't find them attractive in that way and finds someone else to fill those needs. however i really like your theory on this, i think it fits in more with the "washing machine heart" line more. i guess i read that part completely different

Te amo Mitski, esperando por otro álbum

[@arturavakyan7552]

I've seen tons of people in the internet saying that here 1:08 words „Do Mi Ti“ indicate the notes Mitski sings (C, E, B respectively). However, it‘s pretty clear that the notes are different (A, C#, G#). The only other answer I found on Reddit (by MrTangent) is that the word 'domiti' comes from 'domitus' (which means conquered, subdued, root for English 'dominate'). And as pointed out by the MrTangent this meaning "certainly fits with the song". Moreover, I would add from my side, that the intervals within suggested melody notes (C-8->E+7->B) are the same as in the actual melody (A-8-> C#+7->G#). Most probably the song was transposed to a different key, so „Do Mi Ti“ in the original key meant to represent both meanings 🙂

[@agsuh3568]

it could just be do-based solfege (relative solfege). so instead of do corresponding to c, it just corresponds to the tonic (in this case, a).
