Kissing Strangers
DNCE Lyrics

Aye, I'm just tryna make way out to the concrete jungle
I am attempting to navigate through the challenging and competitive environment of modern society.

Who walks with me?
Is anyone joining me on this difficult journey?

Aye, oh yeah trying to find connection in 2 thousand something, ain't easy
It's become increasingly difficult to establish meaningful relationships in contemporary times.

Can't quit, take six
I am so driven that I won't give up after just one attempt, instead taking up to six tries to achieve my goal.

Wanna taste you
I desire to feel your lips on mine.

Language, use lips
The mutual language of love can be expressed intimately through our mouths while kissing.

Kissing strangers (oh)
I'm making out with people I don't really know.

Na na na na na na na na
Vocals adding rhythmic emphasis.

'Til I find someone I love
I will engage in physical intimacy until I find someone with whom I can share affection and deep emotion.

Kissing strangers
I'm kissing people I don't personally know.

Open heart, open mind
Remaining receptive to love and constantly searching for new experiences.

Never know who you'll find
Love and passion can come from unexpected sources.

Close your eyes
Shut out the outside world and let yourself be vulnerable and open to new experiences.

All misinformation open to interpretation
We cannot assume certainty in other's thoughts or intentions, leaving everything open to personal perception.

Just keep searching
Continuously and eagerly searching for meaning, purpose, and love.

Me, hyperventilating, blocking up my circulation
I'm feeling incredibly anxious and physically uncomfortable.

No waiting
I am impatient, unwilling to wait for love and passion to come to me; instead, I pursue it aggressively.

I got a boy that I kinda like
I am interested in a particular guy.

This is a kiss-kiss, tongue him down kind of night
This is a heavily physical and passionate encounter.

He got that uhm-uhm, heard he got that China white
He has a certain level of charm, and possibly some kind of drug.

He got that bomb, I think I'mma call him dynamite
He's incredibly attractive and exciting, so much so that he could cause an explosion of passion in me.

I gotta lotta sons, I can show you all the sonograms
I have many admirers who could eventually become romantic partners. I could prove it with ultrasounds if necessary.

Me? I'm Jem, and these bitches is the holograms
I'm the real deal, and my competition doesn't even exist.

Me? I win and these bitches just lose
I always come out on top, leaving those who oppose me in the dust.

They ships sink, but my ship is just cruise
My opponents are ultimately doomed to fail, while I continue to smoothly sail along.

Anyway, I'm back, but my baby got, gimme piggy back
I'm returning to the party, but my partner carries me there with playful abandon.

Drip drip, with a kitty cat, put it in his lap
With a seductive and sultry presence, I attract my partner's attention and tease him by sitting in his lap.

Sip sip, on the tip tip, lick on his lip-lip
I slowly and sensually press my lips against his and taste his essence with every passing moment.

I think he tryna hit young Nic' like a quick pick
I sense that he's trying to move things quickly, with the same swiftness and excitement as a lottery scratch-off.
