Def Leppard Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Walk this way
You and me babe
Hey hey
Love is like a bomb, baby, c'mon get it on
Livin' like a lover with a radar phone
Lookin' like a tramp, like a video vamp
Razzle 'n' a dazzle 'n' a flash a little light
Television lover, baby, go all night
Sometime, anytime, sugar me sweet
Little miss innocent sugar me, yeah, yeah
Now c'mon, take a bottle, shake it up
Break the bubble, break it up
Pour some sugar on me
Ooh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
C'mon, fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
I can't get enough
I'm hot, sticky sweet
From my head to my feet, yeah
Listen, red light, yellow light, green-a-light go
Crazy little woman in a one man show
Mirror queen, mannequine, rhythm of love
Sweet dream, saccharine, loosen up (loosen up)
Loosen up
You gotta squeeze a little, squeeze a little
Tease a little more
Easy operator come a knockin' on my door
Sometime, anytime, sugar me sweet
Little miss innocent sugar me, yeah, yeah
Give a little more
Take a bottle, shake it up
Break the bubble, break it up
Pour some sugar on me
Ooh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
C'mon, fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
Oh, I can't get enough
I'm hot, sticky sweet
From my head to my feet, yeah
You got the peaches, I got the cream
Sweet to taste, saccharine
'Cause I'm hot (hot), say what, sticky sweet
From my head (head), my head, to my feet
Do you take sugar? One lump or two?
Take a bottle (take a bottle), shake it up (shake it up)
Break the bubble (break it up), break it up
Pour some sugar on me
Ooh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
C'mon fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
Oh, I can't get enough
Pour some sugar on me
Oh, in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
Get it, come get it
Pour your sugar on me (oh-ooh)
Pour some sugar on me
Yeah, sugar me
The lyrics of the song Pour Some Sugar On Me by Def Leppard are about a man expressing his love to his girlfriend in a sexual manner. The opening verse invites her to "step inside" and "walk this way," indicating that the man wants her to follow him and do things his way. He goes on to say that "love is like a bomb" and urges her to "come get it on" with him. He describes himself as "livin' like a lover with a radar phone," implying that he is constantly on the lookout for opportunities to pursue his love interest. The man refers to his girlfriend as a "tramp" and a "video vamp," and asks if he can be her man.
The chorus of the song is an invitation for the woman to "pour some sugar" on the man, with the phrase becoming a euphemism for physical intimacy. The man describes himself as "hot, sticky sweet" and loves the way the woman makes him feel. The second verse continues the sexual theme, with the man referring to the woman as a "crazy little woman" who is a "mirror queen" and a "mannequine." He compares their relationship to a "one man show" and asks the woman to "loosen up" and "give a little more." In the final verse, the man asks the woman if she takes sugar, before repeating the chorus and urging her to "come get it."

MrTeabox “Def Lepard the 80’s will be with you always.”
“May the 80’s music be with you.”
“The shroud of the 2010’s music has fallen... began the crap music era has.”
“Good 2010’s music, good. Ruin music, ruin music now.”
“I shouldn’t.”
“Dew it.”

I think the greatest thing about this band is not their music, but the fact that they didn't ditch their drummer after he lost an arm in a car accident. That's true friendship and loyalty.

I’m a black guy who went to an ethically diverse high school in the 89’s and I remember listening to this song on the radio and watching the music video on TV!

Ethically? Or ethnically?

Straight loyalty when you’re speaking of the drummer, those guys are the best
@heathermallory2096
This band refused to go on without Rick! After he lost his arm they had a special drum kit made for him and said he picked it up real fast. Most loyal band out there during this decade. ❤❤
