Sweet Sweet Intuition
Close your eyes
Listen closely
All that you've learned
Try to forget it
Rival of instinct
And sweet intuition
What makes you tick
Try to remember
All that you've learned
Try to forget it
Believe in, believe in
Believe in istinct
And sweet intution
Sweet intuition
Sweet intuition
Sweet intuition
Sweet intuition
And inside
We're all still wet
Yearing and longing
Repeat after me
Fuck logic, fuck logic
Rival to istinct
And sweet intuition
Sweet intuition honey
Sweet intuition
Sweet
Sweet intuition honey
Sweet
Sweet intuition
Sweet intuition
Huh
Huh
The lyrics to Björk's Sweet Sweet Intuition appear to be an ode to the power of our natural instincts and intuition. The song encourages the listener to forget all that they have learned and to instead trust their instincts, which are described as "sweet intuition". The repetition of the phrase "Fuck logic" emphasizes the importance of instinct over reason and intellect. It seems as if Björk is urging her audience to give in to their primal nature and trust their gut feelings rather than overthinking things.
In the second half of the song, Björk describes how, despite our attempts to appear polished and put together, deep down we are all still "wet" and searching for something. She keeps reiterating the importance of intuition and encourages the listener to repeat it after her, almost like a mantra. The message of this song seems to be that we should not ignore our natural instincts and that trusting ourselves is the key to finding whatever it is we are searching for.

I love this beautiful song. And I agree, logic is overrated :)

+Alyssa Graves Intuition is still some kind of logic, just far more complex and elusive than mathematical logic, for which we tend to give too much credit, I agree.
