The Bird and the Bee Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Again and again and again
Do it again
Do it again
Again and again

It's a shame, it's a shame
It's a perfect shame
Creep under my door and we do it again, oh

It's easy and easy and easy and easy
And creepy and creepy and creepy, oh
Again, again, again, again

Again and again and again
Do it again
Do it again

Again and again and again
Do it again
Do it again

Again and again

Say my name, say my name, say my stupid name
It's stupid how we always seem to do it again, oh

You're so stupid and perfect
And stupid and perfect
I hate you, I want you
I hate you, I hate you, oh
Again, again, again, again

La, la, la
Again and again and again
Do it again
Do it again

Again and again and again
Do it again
Do it again

Again and again

Overall Meaning

The song "Again & Again" by The Bird and the Bee is a playful yet melancholic tune that can be interpreted in different ways. The constant repetition of the phrase "again and again" could represent a cycle of repetitive behavior or thoughts that the singer cannot escape from. This could be a toxic relationship, a bad habit, or even mental illness. The line "it's easy and easy and easy and easy, and creepy and creepy and creepy" suggests that the repetition is both comforting and unsettling at the same time.


The verse "Say my name, say my name, say my stupid name" highlights the singer's insecurities and self-loathing. The phrase "stupid name" could be a metaphor for feeling insignificant or undesirable. Additionally, the line "You're so stupid and perfect and stupid and perfect" represents the internal conflict of loving and hating someone at the same time. The singer can see the flaws in the other person but still feels attached to them.


Overall, "Again & Again" is a catchy and relatable song that captures the complexities of love, addiction, and mental health. The repetition of the chorus creates a hypnotic effect that may symbolize the cyclical nature of life.

Everytime I hear this song it takes me back to when, I was a senior in high school. I was working for F.Y.E. Music Store in New York, And it was the fall of 2006 going into 2007.This song has a chill laid back vibe to it.I can listen to it over an over again not be bored with it.

@prestonrcasey

I was a sophomore in high school when I first heard this, and it takes me straight back to that time. Such a great time tbh

@MrJeremybowling

I remember this song from the Mac OS video, and I could never EVER find it and just randomly I tried today and found it again. Whatever happened to this band?

@prestonrcasey

@@MrJeremybowling They might still do shows, they're just a duo though. What was the Mac OS video you're speaking of?

@68skot
