9 of Zayn's 'Mind of Mine' Lyrics That Never Would've Made a One Direction Album
As the narrative seeps into our brainfolds, Zayn Malik's debut album Mind of Mine is his declaration of freedom from One Direction. He's going to great lengths to prove he can embrace more mature material by diving head-first into sex anthems (pun intended because I'm a perv).
1D handled sex very carefully—it wasn't absent on their records, but it wasn't exactly upfront either. For example, this was the most scandalous lyric from 2013's Midnight Memories: “It’s 4 a.m. and I know that you’re with him / I wonder if he knows that I touched your skin.” DAMN! YOU TOUCHED HER SKIN!?!?
When the guys got older they got a little sexier, alluding to one-night stands on the Made in the A.M. track "Temporary Fix": "Saw that I can teach you, waking up in my T-shirt." OOH your shirt!?!? WONDER HOW IT GOT THERE!?
