Speaker
Banx & Ranx Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah, Banx & Ranx

You wanna go find an empty room?
Somewhere to talk and get to know you (you)
But you're in my space, so I don't want to
It's getting late, but I won't leave soon

So, baby, come closer to my ear (ear)
I can't, I can't hear
We can talk about it over here (here)
Whatchu, whatchu say?
Baby, come closer to my ear (ear)
I can't, I can't hear you
Yeah, you

Everybody
is standing outside of the party
But you and I are right next to a speaker (speaker)
We can barely speak here
But the louder it is, the closer we get

Too many friends we don't need around
Too many drinks that we can't turn down
Plenty of space in this crowded house
But here in mine's where I want you now

So, baby, come closer to my ear (come closer to my ear)
I can't, I can't hear
We can talk about it over here (we can put it right here)
Whatchu, whatchu say?
Baby, come closer to my ear (come closer to my ear)
I can't, I can't hear you
Yeah, you

Everybody (everybody) is standing outside of the party
But you and I are right next to a speaker (speaker)
We can barely speak here
But the louder it is, the closer we get

Speaker (oh yeah)
Speaker (oh yeah)
Speaker (oh yeah)
Speaker

(Yeah yeah) yeah, the riddim be loud
Scream and we shout, zonin'
All in the club and we party, it's four in the morning
I see this girl from far
Follow my eyes and tell her come here
Come, we go to a corner
Come, baby, don't be scared
Everybody (everybody) knows somebody
So don't worry about me, yeah, yeah
Can we turn the party? (turn the party)
And the music's gettin' louder
And we're getting closer
And she fall in love

Everybody (everybody) is standing outside of the party
But you and I are right next to a speaker (speaker)
We can barely speak here (speak here)
But the louder it is, the closer we get

Speaker (oh yeah)
Speaker (oh yeah) (speaker)
Speaker (oh yeah)
Speaker





But the louder it is, the closer we get

Overall Meaning

In Banx & Ranx's song "Speaker," the lyrics portray a desire to connect with someone in a crowded party, despite the loud music and the many distractions. The speaker wants to get to know this person better, but they're unable to hear each other amidst the noise. Instead, they draw closer to the speaker to escape the chaos and connect. The song's chorus and title come from this imagery.


The verses are set up with a contrast between public and private spaces: the speaker wants to find an empty room to talk and get to know this person, but they're already in the speaker's "space," so they don't want to leave. The lyrics suggest that the speaker and the other person are drawn to each other in a crowded party, but their connection is hindered by the noise and the presence of other people. However, as they draw closer to the speaker, they are able to continue their conversation and ultimately fall in love.


The lyrics of "Speaker" portray the universal human experience of trying to connect with someone in a crowded and chaotic environment. The song resonates with anyone who has tried to find intimacy in the midst of loud music and a bustling crowd.
