Blame It on the Boogie
黄翠珊 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We spent the night in Frisco at every kinda disco
From that night I kissed our love goodbye
Dont blame it on the sunshine
Dont blame it on the moonlight
Dont blame it on the good times
Blame it on the boogie
Dont blame it on the sunshine
Dont blame it on the good times
Blame it on the boogie
That nasty boogie bugs me,
but somehow how it has drugged me
Spellbound rhythm gets me on my feet
Ive changed my life completely,
Ive seen the lightning leave me
And my baby just cant take her eyes off me
Dont blame it on the sunshine
Dont blame it on the moonlight
Dont blame it on the good times
Blame it on the boogie
Dont you blame it on the sunshine
Dont blame it on the moonlight
Dont blame it on the good times
Blame it on the boogie, woo
I just cant, I just cant
I just cant control my feet
I just cant, I just cant (Yeah)
I just cant (Woo) control my feet
Dont blame it on the sunshine
Dont blame it on the moonlight
Dont blame it on the good times
Blame it on the boogie
The lyrics of "Blame It On The Boogie" by 黄翠珊 convey a sense of frustration and disappointment in the singer's love life. The opening line, "But I don't get no lovin and that's no lie," sets the tone for the song. It suggests that the singer is not receiving the affection or attention they crave. The following lines describe a night spent in different discos in Frisco, seemingly searching for love but ultimately ending in disappointment. The phrase "From that night I kissed our love goodbye" implies that the singer's pursuit of love or fun led to the demise of a romantic relationship.
The chorus repeatedly states, "Don't blame it on the sunshine, don't blame it on the moonlight, don't blame it on the good times, blame it on the boogie." Here, the singer is suggesting that their unhappiness or lack of love should not be attributed to external factors like sunshine, moonlight, or good times; instead, it is the boogie, or the music and rhythm, that is to blame. The decision to blame the boogie could mean that the singer believes their own attraction to the music and dancing is the root cause of their romantic misfortunes.
The lyrics also mention that the boogie bugs the singer, but they are also enchanted by its spellbound rhythm, which gets them on their feet. They describe a transformative experience, where their life has changed completely, and their partner cannot take their eyes off them. This can be interpreted as the singer finding solace and joy in the music and dance, but also acknowledging that it has a hold on them.
