Body Rock
Barbarellas Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

No,
Drop you head down ignoring the sound
I know you hear me talking
I can feel percussion on the ground
Your nervous feet are tapping
Talking to me, you’re not looking to me
That just says to me, that you kick and see
I’m hooking it up, tell me was she good?
Tell me was she worth it?
Is she good as me?
Let your body rock, Who the hell wants to talk
Let your body rock, with me
Let your body rock, I don’t wanna stop
Who the hell wants to talk, not me
Take a messing on your thing, cause you’re about to strike again
It’s a habit
Leave, leave with whatever you can, there’s the issue of your name
You can have it
Talking to me, you’re not looking to me
That just says to me, that you kick and see

Is she good as me?
Let your body rock, Who the hell wants to talk
Let your body rock, with me
Let your body rock, I don’t wanna stop
Who the hell wants to talk, not me
It all what you know, just bring it on home
It’s all what you know, don’t keep talking, no more talking
Don’t keep talking, keep your talking to yourself
Let your body rock, …
Let your body rock, little minute …
Let your body rock, I don’t wanna stop
Who the hell wants to talk, not me X 2




Don’t keep talking, no more talking
Don’t keep talking, keep your talking to yourself

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Barbarella's song "Body Rock" are about moving on from a past relationship and letting go of any lingering thoughts and feelings about it. The singer urges her partner to "let [their] body rock" and to stop talking and thinking about their ex-lover. The use of percussive language and the description of "nervous feet tapping" creates a sense of urgency and a desire for release from the past. The repeated question of whether the ex-partner was "good as [her]" emphasizes the singer's need for validation and the comparison to the previous lover. The refrain of "let your body rock" serves as a reminder to live in the moment and enjoy the physical connection they are currently sharing.
