Naked
Brown Jennifer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You know that all this smoke is just a screen.
But in this world today, with all the games we play.
This one´s not so bad.
Do you really what to be alone tonight?
I can´t help myself, I can´t help myself.
[Chorus]
I want you to touch me and we fa la la la...
When i´m naked I don´t care, as long as you are standing there when I take off all my clothes.
We fa la la la...
I can dress up like a queen, if make believe is what you want from me.
But any role I play will just be tossed away each time i´ll make you crazy.
Do you really want to watch the show?
If you help yourself, you can help yourself.
[Chorus]
Chemistry is not a crime.
Just for people who keep it all wrapped up inside.
Who needs formality in sexuality.
[Chorus]
In Brown Jennifer's song "Naked," the lyrics showcase a desire for deep intimacy and connection between two people, communicated through the metaphor of physical nakedness. The first verse sets up the tension between teasing and authenticity, emphasizing that the singer wants to be seen for who she really is, but recognizes that it can be terrifying to let someone else see you that way. The chorus repeats the desire to be naked both physically and emotionally, emphasizing the vulnerability that comes with true intimacy.
The second verse adds another layer to the metaphor, suggesting that the singer can dress up and play a role to be what the other person wants, but ultimately that approach is unsustainable and unfulfilling. The emphasis is on the desire for genuine, authentic connection that is deeper than surface-level attraction or performance.
The final section flips the script on the societal norms around sex and relationships, arguing that chemistry, i.e. true connection, is not something to be ashamed of, but rather should be celebrated and embraced. The focus remains on the desire for real intimacy and connection between two people.
Overall, the lyrics of "Naked" emphasize the need for authenticity, vulnerability, and real connection in our relationships. The metaphor of physical nakedness is used to highlight the desire for emotional nakedness as well, communicating the idea that true intimacy requires us to let go of our masks and defenses and be seen for who we really are.
