Take My Hand
Ded Chaplin Lyrics

The lyrics to Ded Chaplin's song "Take My Hand" depict a scenario where the singer has called out to someone at their usual drinking spot suggesting they come hang out if they have the time. However, the scene takes a turn when the woman who shows up to meet the singer, who the singer had thought was a friend, has transformed into a beautifully made-up woman with a different personality. The singer requests that someone erase the fuse of the fireworks that have gone off in their head due to this unexpected turn of events. They lament that they never intended for the situation to turn out this way and that it's all due to their foolishness as a drummer's son who doesn't care about his parents' ideals. The singer again requests that someone put out the fuse of the fireworks in their head. Throughout the lyrics, the singer expresses their desire to love all the ladies in the world.

The song's lyrics highlight the notion of unexpected emotions and scenarios that life can present. The sudden transformation of the woman who the singer believed to be their friend indicates how people can hide certain aspects of themselves in their social interactions. The singer's request for someone to put out the fuse of the fireworks can be seen as a metaphor for their desire to quell the emotions that have burst forth in them. The lyrics also touch on the common theme of societal expectations and how children can feel pressured to live up to their parents' expectations. The singer's wish to love every lady in the world represents their yearning for acceptance, indicating that they may not have had the best experiences with those around them.
