Driver
DIE the Monk Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You know
I'ma catch a ride
Not a driver
Rewind and
Maybe you will find
Where they left us
Catch up
I don't have the answers
I donโ€™t have the answers
And I donโ€™t know your plan
Fuck your manners again
I got shordies
Even in the morning
Flawless
They gorgeous
Make me feel important
Focus
Toke this
Fiending for some more kush
No i donโ€™t take offense
I'ma loner I chose it...
Every time I let her put her body
On the bed we gotta go go go
Any time I get a little crazy
In my head I gotta go go go go yehh
Take if off let me unbutton my shirt so clean
I'm so thirsty let me taste your cuisine
Fiending for some more 'cause Iโ€™m a demon yeh
Feel my hair
Up, down, everywhere
Body is a circus
Put it on her person
Help me, learn you
What's your favorite type?
I could tell you felt my
Kiss up on your cheek bone
Sweet thing sugar cane
Picking up that call
Know the ringtone
whatโ€™s my name?
I can tell you like a freak
I can be what I wanna
Don't you try to make me weak
On my knees, I'ma goner...
Watch out
Watch out
Watch out
Watch yourself now
Don't you understand me?
ohhhhh...
I'm not a driver
I'm a passenger




Can you steer me?
Away from...

Overall Meaning

In the song "Driver" by DIE the Monk, the lyrics convey a sense of uncertainty and detachment, as the singer contemplates their role in their own life and relationships. The opening lines "You know, I'ma catch a ride / Not a driver," suggest a passive approach to life, feeling adrift and not in control. The mention of wanting to rewind and find where they were left reflects a desire to understand past events or circumstances that have led them to their current state of confusion.


The repetition of "I don't have the answers" underscores the theme of uncertainty and self-doubt, as the singer grapples with not knowing their place or purpose. The defiance in "Fuck your manners again" hints at a rebellious attitude towards societal norms and expectations, perhaps indicating a struggle with conformity or feeling boxed in by social conventions. The mention of seeking companionship in "shordies" and the allure of drugs like kush suggest a search for escape or distraction from their internal turmoil.


The lyrics also touch on themes of desire and intimacy, as the singer describes physical encounters and a craving for connection and validation. The imagery of putting "body on the bed we gotta go go go" and getting "a little crazy in my head" conveys a sense of restlessness and a need for excitement or stimulation. There is also a hint of vulnerability and longing in lines like "Let me taste your cuisine / Fiending for some more 'cause Iโ€™m a demon," suggesting a complex mix of passion and internal conflict within the singer.


The latter part of the song shifts to a more introspective tone, as the singer explores questions of identity and self-discovery. The mention of the body as a "circus" and the plea to "help me, learn you" hint at a yearning for deeper connection and understanding with others. The refrain of "Watch out, watch yourself now / Don't you understand me?" underscores a sense of frustration and a desire to be seen and heard. The final lines "I'm not a driver, I'm a passenger / Can you steer me? Away from..." leave the listener with a lingering sense of longing for direction and guidance, seeking a way out of their current state of confusion and aimlessness.

Aww, you left out my favorite part!
The part where Monk accidentally crunches the car's fender, making Sharona so upset that she vows to never let Adrian drive until hell freezes over. ...Then she changes her mind and decides she won't let him drive then because he would slip on the ice ๐Ÿ˜„

@JJ_R

Well, at least Monk didnโ€™t break Sharonaโ€™s transmission.

@Divvy21

Transmission * and doesnโ€™t he crash this right after the scene

@JJ_R

@@Divvy21 I donโ€™t know that, since they donโ€™t show it.

@TZER0

3:35 Sharona: โ€œIt is not too late to start YAWNing right now. Because you have start yawning at some point of the day! Everyone yawns all day thereโ€™s no rules! YAWN!โ€ ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚
(Her Jersey accent made that delivery enjoyable!) ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

@iganpparamarta8813

Iโ€™m from Indonesia. Thank you for saying her accent. I knew sheโ€™s from Jersey but somehow I always thought her accent is New York.
What about Natalie, does she speak some accent?

@charlotteginis

Nope

@YouTubeallowedmynametobestolen

@@charlotteginis Everyone who speaks--literally EVERYONE--speaks with an accent.
Some accents are considered more "standard" or "neutral." But they are still accents.

@Bersztipflag

1:27 Monk's phony smile before the board, it's really painful to watch!

@multiplemaster6461

He can drive alright.
Drive people crazy
