Shaun Ryder (Happy Mondays front man) at the beginning of 'Step On' he sings...?

Question

'You're twistin my melon man!' What is your perception of this?
My cat is a keen gardener and he informed me, that his best pal Ghandi said in a dream that the best way to retrieve a melon from the soil of our earth is to give it a bloody good twist, then is should lift easily! Don't take it as gospel, it's only what i've heard, but surely the Happy's can't be talking bout the same thing!

Fluke · Accepted Answer

I think it's a reference to his head (Melon) being confused, (twisted.) Who the hell knows for sure? He doesn't!!

Melok · Answer

I think Fluke is right about this one. I heard Steve McQueen say this once in the 1970's. The phrase goes back that far at least.
He's basically saying... "Stop messing with my head"
