Women
Def Leppard Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Then He made the water and creatures, then He made man
He was born with a passion, love and hate
A restless spirit with a need for a mate
But there was something that was missing, something lost
So he came with the answer, here's what it cost
One part love, one part wild
One part lady, one part child
I give you
(Women, women) lots of pretty women
(Men, men) they can't live without them
(Women, women) lots of pretty women
(Men, men) they can't live without them
And in the garden, lust began
The animal instinct, the wanton man
She fed him with a hunger, an appetite
And fillin' with emotion he took a bite
It was one part love, one part child
One part lover, one part wild
I give you
(Women, women) lots of pretty women
(Men, men) they can't live without them
(Women, women) lots of pretty women
(Men, men) they can't live without them
Skin on skin, let the love begin
Women
It was one part love, one part wild
One part lover, one part child
A whole lotta fire, a little bit of ice
A whole lotta something you can't sacrifice
I give you
Hair, eyes, skin on skin
Legs, (legs) thighs, (thighs) what's that spell? (what's that spell?_
(Women, women) oh, oh
(Women, women)
(Women, women) callin' every girl
(Women, women) all around the world
(Women) women, oh we can't live without them
(Women, women)
Def Leppard's "Women" is a tribute to the power and allure of the female sex that explores the deep-seated attraction and desire for women that seem to be innate in men. The opening lyric pays homage to the creation story in the Bible, with the creation of man and woman being the pinnacle of God's creation. The lyrics continue to develop the idea of innate desire, with the singer suggesting that men simply can't live without women. The line "She fed him with a hunger, an appetite" speaks to the almost primal need men feel for women, and the passionate chorus underscores the idea of women being a vital and irresistible force in men's lives.
The lyrics of "Women" are overtly sexual and suggest that women are objects of male desire. However, the song also celebrates the power and strength of women. This is apparent in the lines "One part love, one part wild/ One part lady, one part child," which suggest that women are complex and multifaceted creatures. This is later reinforced by the verse "A whole lotta fire, a little bit of ice/ A whole lotta something you can't sacrifice," which suggests that women are both passionate and enigmatic.
Overall, "Women" is a raucous anthem that celebrates the power and allure of the female sex. It has been interpreted as both sexist and empowering, and the lyrics are undeniably controversial. However, the song is an enduring classic that continues to be loved by fans of hard rock and heavy metal.

In the beginning God made the land
The world began with God's creation of the earth
Then He made the water and creatures, then He made man
After making the world, God created living things and human beings
He was born with a passion, love and hate
Man is born with the capacity for strong emotions
A restless spirit with a need for a mate
As a social creature, man has a desire for affection and companionship
But there was something that was missing, something lost
Despite having love and companionship, man feels like he's lacking something
So he came with the answer, here's what it cost
The solution to man's emptiness came at a price
One part love, one part wild
The answer to man's emptiness involves both love and excitement
One part lady, one part child
Man needs both femininity and playfulness in his life
I give you
(Women, women) lots of pretty women
(Men, men) they can't live without them
(Women, women) lots of pretty women
(Men, men) they can't live without them
Women are an integral part of men's lives and they cannot do without them
And in the garden, lust began
Lust came into being in the Garden of Eden
The animal instinct, the wanton man
Man has an animalistic nature that drives him to satisfy his base desires
She fed him with a hunger, an appetite
Eve aroused Adam's desire for her
And fillin' with emotion he took a bite
Overwhelmed by his emotions, Adam gave in to temptation
It was one part love, one part child
One part lover, one part wild
Adam's feelings towards Eve were complex and involved multiple aspects
Skin on skin, let the love begin
Women
Physical intimacy between man and woman is the start of love
A whole lotta fire, a little bit of ice
A whole lotta something you can't sacrifice
Love involves intense passion and some measure of vulnerability that cannot be abandoned
I give you
Hair, eyes, skin on skin
Legs, (legs) thighs, (thighs) what's that spell? (what's that spell?_
(Women, women) oh, oh
(Women, women)
(Women, women) callin' every girl
(Women, women) all around the world
(Women) women, oh we can't live without them
(Women, women)
Women offer men a wide range of sensory and physical experiences and are valued across the world
