Chocolate
1975's Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey now, call it a split because you know that you will
Oh, you bite your friend like chocolate
You say that we'll go where nobody knows
With guns hidden under our petticoat
No, we're never gonna quit it, no we're never gonna quit it, no
Now we run, run away from the boys in the blue
And my car smells like chocolate
Hey now, think about what to do
Think about what to say
Think about how to think
Pause it, play it, pause it, play it, pause it

Oh, we go where nobody knows
With guns hidden under our petticoat
And we're never gonna quit it, no, we're never gonna quit it, no
Yeah, we're dressed in black from head to toe
We got guns hidden under our petticoat
No, we're never gonna quit it, no, we're never gonna quit it, no

Now you're never gonna quit it
Now you're never gonna quit it
Now you're never gonna quit it
If you don't stop smokin' it
That's what she said
She said we're dressed in black, head to toe
With guns hidden under our petticoat
And we're never gonna quit it, no, we're never gonna quit it, no

Hey now, we're buildin' up speed as we're approachin' the hill
(Approachin' the hill, approachin' the hill)
Oh, my hair smells like chocolate
Hey now, you say you're gonna quit it, but you're never gonna quit it
Go get it, go get it, go get it, go get it, go
And play it cool

Oh, you said we go where nobody knows
With guns hidden under our petticoat
No, we're never gonna quit it, no, we're never gonna quit it, no
Yeah, we're dressed in black, from head to toe
We've got guns hidden under our petticoat
We're never gonna quit it, no, we're never gonna quit it, no

Well, I think we better go
Seriously better go
Said the feds are here, you know
Seriously better go
Oh no, well, I think we better go
Said the feds are here, you know
Said Rebecca better know
Seriously better go

(Hey)
We go where nobody knows
With guns hidden under our petticoat
And we're never gonna quit it, no, we're never gonna quit it, no
Yeah, we're dressed in black, head to toe
With guns hidden under our petticoat
No, we're never gonna quit it, no, we're never gonna quit it, no (no, no)

Well, I think we better go
Seriously better go
Said the feds are here, you know
Seriously better go
And well, I think we better go
Said the feds are here, you know




Said Rebecca better know
Seriously better go

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of The 1975's song "Chocolate" are open to interpretation as there is no clear narrative or story. The song seems to be about reckless youth and the desire to escape from authority figures. The opening lines "Hey now, call it a split because you know that you will, Oh, you bite your friends like chocolate." suggest that the singer and their friends are on the brink of a split, or breaking away from something, and that they bite each other, possibly in a playful manner, like chocolate. The idea of recklessness and rebellion continues in the next line "You say that we'll go where nobody knows, With guns hidden under our petticoat," which suggests they are going somewhere clandestine with concealed weapons. The repeated line "No, we're never gonna quit it, no we're never gonna quit it, no" reinforces the idea of their desire to continue their rebellious behavior.


The chorus "Now we run, run away from the boys in the blue, And my car smells like chocolate" suggests that they are being pursued by the police or other authority figures, and perhaps the scent of chocolate in the car is a metaphor for their desire to hide their illicit activities. The verses that follow continue the theme of trying to escape "Hey now, think about what to do, Think about what to say, Think about how to think, Pause it, play it, pause it, play it, pause it." The repetition of "pause it, play it" could suggest that they are trying to figure out their next move, or are perhaps distracted by music or something similar.


Overall, the song "Chocolate" is a catchy and upbeat tune that seems to celebrate the joy of youth and rebellion. It is a song about living in the moment and not worrying about the consequences of one's actions.
