Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Na na na, come on
Na na na, na na come on
Na na na, come on, come on
Come on, na na-na na come on
Na na na, come on
Na na na, na na, come on
Na na na, come on, come on
Come on, na na na na
Feels so good being bad
There's no way I'm turning back
Now the pain is for pleasure
'Cause nothing can measure
Love is great, love is fine
Out the box, out of line
The affliction of the feeling leaves me wanting more
'Cause I may be bad but I'm perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don't care, I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me
'Cause I may be bad but I'm perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don't care, I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones,
But chains and whips excite me
Na na na come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it
Love is great, love is fine
Out the box, out of line
The affliction of the feeling leaves me wanting more
'Cause I may be bad but I'm perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don't care, I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me
Na na na come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it
S, S, S and M, M, M
S, S, S and M, M, M
Oh I love the feeling you bring to me
Oh, you turn me on
It's exactly what I've been yearning for
Give it to me strong
And meet me in my boudoir
Make my body say ah, ah, ah
I like it, like it
'Cause I may be bad but I'm perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don't care, I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me
'Cause I may be bad but I'm perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don't care, I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me
Na na na come on, come on, come on,
I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it, come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it come on, come on, come on
I like it, like it

Rihanna's song "S&M" is a song with explicit sexual themes that have been interpreted in different ways over the years. The song talks about how the singer enjoys the feeling of being dominated in bed by chains and whips, and how she loves the smell of sex. The lyrics give the impression that Rihanna is comparing the pain of her sexual experiences to a pleasurable feeling. She mentions that getting hurt is enjoyable because it takes her beyond the limits of what is okay or acceptable, and it allows her to explore her sexual limits.
In essence, "S&M" is a song about BDSM (Bondage/Discipline, Dominance/Submission, and Sadism/Masochism), which is a type of consensual sexual play where partners engage in role-playing with the use of erotic restraint and pleasure-related pain. Some interpretations of the song suggest that Rihanna is speaking about her relationship with the media and how they willfully hurt her with their criticisms and how she turns that pain into pleasure. Through the lyrics, she declares that nothing can cure her love for S&M, not even sticks and stones can break her bones because she likes the feeling of being dominated.
In conclusion, "S&M" is a song that has sparked public conversation and debate on sexuality and empowerment, with others viewing the song as an ode to liberation and sexual empowerment, while others see the song as vulgar and offensive. Nonetheless, it remains a popular song that has gathered millions of views on popular media networks around the world.
