Sweet
ALX Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I just don’t seem to understand
Why you’re so very hard to take
You sweet sticky thing
If I could slow you down sometime
I’d like to try and change your mind
You’re really not the one to blame
Sweet, sweet sticky thing
Sweet, sweet sticky thing
Sweet, sweet sticky thing
Sweet, sweet sticky thing
Sweet, sweet sticky thing
Sweet, sweet sticky thing
Every time that you walk by
You really leave me paralyzed
If you just were doing your thing
You sweet sticky thing
Your beehive is full of bees
I wish you had a place for me
I’m really trying hard to change
You sweet sticky thing
Sweet, sweet sticky thing
Sweet, sweet sticky thing
Sweet, sweet sticky thing
Sweet, sweet sticky thing
Sweet, sweet sticky thing
Sweet, sweet sticky thing
Little bugs and bumble bee
I’d like to take you home with me
Will you share my beehive with me
You sweet sticky thing?
You leave honey everywhere
Sometimes I wonder if you care
Who sees you when you do your thing
You’ve got such a sting
Sweet, sweet sticky thing
Sweet, sweet sticky thing
That’s why I sing
Da da da daa
Da da da daa
Da da da daa aah
Da da da daa
Da da da daa
Da da da daa aah
In ALX's song Sweet, the singer is expressing their confusion and frustration towards a person they are attracted to, but who they have observed going from man to man. The person is described as a "sweet sticky thing" that leaves the singer paralyzed every time they walk by. The singer wishes they could slow the other person down, and is trying to change for them. The lyrics also suggest that the person leaves a trail of honey everywhere they go, which could be interpreted as a metaphor for a person who leaves a trail of destruction or heartbreak in their wake.
The lyrics of Sweet are open to interpretation, but one possible explanation is that the song is about someone who is addicted to attention and the feeling of being wanted. The "sweet sticky thing" could represent someone who is good at attracting attention, but who ultimately leaves behind a trail of broken hearts. The singer is struggling to come to terms with their attraction to this person, and is attempting to change themselves in the hopes of being the one who can satisfy their needs.
Overall, Sweet is a complex and emotional song that explores the themes of attraction, addiction, and the pain of unrequited love.
