If my honey comes back sometime
I'm gonna rap that jack sometimes
Get a hump in my back sometimes
I'm going over here sometimes

Way down yonder sometimes
Gonna get my pal sometimes




Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Moby's song "Honey" are open to interpretation, but one possible way to understand them is through the lens of longing for a lost love. The first line, "If my honey comes back sometime," sets the tone for the rest of the song. The singer is hoping that their lost love will return, but there's a sense of uncertainty and resignation.


The following lines - "I'm gonna rap that jack sometimes / Get a hump in my back sometimes / I'm going over here sometimes" - seem to suggest that the singer is alternating between feeling upbeat and feeling down, perhaps depending on whether they're thinking about their lost love or distracting themselves with other activities. The repetition of "sometimes" creates a sense of fluidity, as if the singer's mood is constantly shifting.


The final two lines - "Way down yonder sometimes / Gonna get my pal sometimes" - are more ambiguous. "Way down yonder" could signify a faraway place, or it could be a way of emphasizing the singer's distance from their lost love. "Gonna get my pal sometimes" raises questions about who the singer's "pal" is and what role they play in the singer's efforts to move on. Overall, the lyrics of "Honey" capture the mixed emotions and uncertainty of longing for a lost love.
