Like a Sundae
Black Moth Super Rainbow Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Meltin' like a sundae
Burning in my eyes
Peelin' like a sunburn
Microwave my smile

Meltin' like a sundae
Monday you'll hate me
Hurts just like a sunburn
Burns until it bleeds

I can see myself bein' with yourself
When the summer buzz starts wearin' off




I can see myself bein' with yourself
If the summer buzz would just wear off

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to the song 'Like a Sundae' by Black Moth Super Rainbow, speak to the feeling of burning passion and desire that is short-lived and impermanent, much like a sundae in the summer heat. The opening line, "Meltin' like a sundae, burning in my eyes" creates an image of the heat and intensity of the moment, while the subsequent line "peelin' like a sunburn, microwave my smile" speaks to the physical and emotional toll that this passion takes on the individual, resulting in a smile that feels heated and artificial.


The second verse of the song speaks to the inevitability of this passion winding down and losing its flair, "Monday you'll hate me, hurts just like a sunburn, burns until it bleeds". The sense of regret and pain that comes with the realization that the passion is not everlasting, and will ultimately leave them worse off than before.


Overall, the lyrics to 'Like a Sundae', paint a vivid picture of the intensity and transience of passion, longing for something more substantial and lasting.
