Lollipop
D. Smith Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Make it her birthday each day of the week.
Bring her nice things, sugar and spice things,
roses and lollipops and lollipops and roses.
One day she'll smile, next day she'll cry,
minute to minute you'll never know why.
Coax her, pet her, better yet, get her
We try acting grown up, but as a rule
we're all little children fresh from school.
So carry her books. That's how it starts.
Fourteen or forty they're kids in their hearts.
Keep them handy, flowers and candy,
roses and lollipops and lollipops and roses
D. Smith’s song “Lollipop” is about expressing love and affection to someone special. It’s a song that encourages being attentive to the needs and desires of your loved one. The first verse encourages listeners to consistently express their love and affection. The second verse highlights the unpredictable nature of emotions by stating that a person could either be happy or sad from one moment to the next. However, the verse suggests that coaxing and pampering your loved one could help them become happier. The bridge of the song likens adults to children, suggesting that regardless of age, people will always long for love and affection.
The first verse tells listeners to communicate their love and affection to their partners vocally, urging them to tell them they care each time they speak. The second line tells listeners to make their partners feel special each day. The second line encourages listeners to think of ways to make their partners feel special, comparing the feeling to a birthday. This contrasts with the third line, which suggests that tangible materialistic presents should also be given, which brings happiness too. Using the metaphor of roses and lollipops, these items represent both the romantic and playful aspects of love. The second verse speaks about the changing nature of emotions, stating that one day the partner may be happy while the next day they may be sad. D. Smith suggests that soothing someone, either with kind words or gifts, could help comfort them in their emotional turmoil.
The bridge of the song is where the lyrics begin to take on their most emotional tone. D. Smith points out that we all try to act like grown-ups when it comes to love, but deep down we're all just children. As such, listeners are told to pay attention to what their partners need, as if they were still young children themselves. The work “handy” suggests that little presents should always be accessible and available, like flowers and candy. Doing so, the song suggests will bring joy and contentment to the relationship, and restore the happiness that characterises childhood.

Infants are not blank slates, on whom we scrawl instructions for sexually-appropriate behavior. They are born with male or female minds of their own. They have, quite literally, made up their minds in the womb, safe from the legions of social engineers who impatiently await them.
In the first few weeks in the womb, the tiny fetus isn't noticeably a miniature girl or a miniature boy. It has all the basic equipment, such as vestigial ducts, tracts and so on, to develop as either sex. But as the weeks go by, the genes begin to put the message across. If things go normally, and everything follows the XY blueprint of a boy, the chromosomes will cue the development of the gonads into testes. It's now, at around six weeks, that sexual identity is finally determined - when the male fetus develops the special cells which produce the male hormones or androgens, the main one being testosterone. The hormones instruct the body not to bother with developing a feminine set of sexual equipment, while stimulating the development of embryonic male genitalia.
About the same time, if the baby is female, genetically XX, the reproductive machinery develops along female lines, produces no significant amount of male hormone, and results in a girl baby. Just as the six-week-old fetus wasn't recognizably male or female in appearance, so the embryonic brain takes some time before it begins to acquire a specific sexual identity. If the embryo is genetically female, nothing very drastic happens to the basic pattern of the brain. In broad terms, the natural template of the brain seems to be female. In normal girls it will develop naturally along female lines.
In boys it is different.
Just as male gender depended on the presence of male hormone, so a radical intervention is needed to change that naturally female brain structure into a male pattern. This literally mind-altering process is the result of the same process that determined those other physical changes - the intervention of the hormones.
Embryonic boy babies are exposed to a colossal dose of male hormone at the critical time when their brains are beginning to take shape. The male hormone levels then are four times the level experienced throughout infancy and boyhood. A vast surge of male hormone occurs at each end of male development: at adolescence, when his sexuality comes on stream, and six weeks after conception, at the moment his brain is beginning to take shape.
But, as with the development of the rest of the body, things can go wrong. A male fetus may have enough male hormones to trigger the development of male sex organs, but these may not be able to produce the additional male hormones to push the brain into the male pattern. His brain will "stay" female, so he will be born with a female brain in a male body. In the same way, a female baby may be exposed in the womb to an accidental dose of the male hormone - we'll see later how this can happen - and end up with a male brain in a female body.

Yesss! I love the diversity of who he interviews for his channel. No discrimination. That's what it's all about, getting to know all people from all walks of life. Negative comments don't matter, it's natural for people to not understand and to get mad about what they don't understand. Trans is real, and we are people too!

D Smith was not a trans back when he produced for Wayne and keri hilson. I met did before I helped promote an event for him back in 2011 I live in Atlanta. He did start his transformation until 2012. I know this for a fact.

She/He got talent!Props to her/him.

I love HER (yes, I referred to HER as a HER), SHE seems like a really cool chick, and she's clearly hella talent because winning 1 Grammy isn't an easy task (LetAlone winning multiple Grammy's). Btw... if addressing D. Smith as "HER" bothers YOU then try referring to D. as a HUMAN BEING before you call HER anything else, because even if you don't like, agree or accept the fact that SHE identifies herself as a different gender from what SHE was born as, then MAYBE (just MAAAAYBE) during your rant about how disgusted you are by HER you'll remember that you're talking about a PERSON (i.e. a flawed HUMAN BEING with as SOUL)... just like me and YOU. #IWishHateWouldGoOutOfStyleFOREVER&PrayingForOneAnotherBecameTheCoolestThingInTheWorld.
