Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Love is like a bomb baby c'mon get it on
Livin' like a lover with a radar phone
Lookin' like a tramp, like a video vamp
Demolition woman, can I be your man? (Your man)
Razzle 'n' a dazzle 'n' a flash a little light
Sometime, anytime, sugar me sweet
Little miss ah innocent sugar me, yeah, yeah
So c'mon, take a bottle, shake it up
Break the bubble, break it up
Pour some sugar on me
Ooh in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
C'mon fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
Ooh I can't get enough
I'm hot, sticky sweet
From my head to my feet, yeah
Listen, red light, yellow light, green-a-light go
Crazy little woman in a one man show
Mirror queen, mannequin, rhythm of love
Sweet dream, saccharine, loosen up (loosen up) loosen up
You gotta squeeze a little, tease a little please a little more
Easy operator come a knockin' on my door
Sometime, anytime, sugar me sweet
Little miss innocent sugar me, yeah, yeah
Give a little more, take a bottle, shake it up
Break the bubble, break it up
Pour some sugar on me
Ooh in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
C'mon and fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
Oh, I can't get enough
I'm hot, sticky sweet
From my head to my feet yeah
You got the peaches, I got the cream
Sweet to taste, saccharine
Cause I'm hot, (say what), sticky sweet
From my head, (my head) to my feet
Do you take sugar? One lump or two?
Take a bottle (take a bottle)
Shake it up (shake it up)
Break the bubble (break it up)
Break it up (break it up)
Pour some sugar on me
Ooh in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
C'mon fire me up
Pour your sugar on me
Ooh I can't get enough
Pour some sugar on me
Ooh in the name of love
Pour some sugar on me
Get it, come get it
Pour your sugar on me, oh
Pour some sugar on me yeah, sugar me

“May the 80’s music be with you.”
“The shroud of the 2010’s music has fallen... began the crap music era has.”
“Good 2010’s music, good. Ruin music, ruin music now.”
“I shouldn’t.”
“Dew it.”

I think the greatest thing about this band is not their music, but the fact that they didn't ditch their drummer after he lost an arm in a car accident. That's true friendship and loyalty.

I’m a black guy who went to an ethically diverse high school in the 89’s and I remember listening to this song on the radio and watching the music video on TV!

Ethically? Or ethnically?

Straight loyalty when you’re speaking of the drummer, those guys are the best
@heathermallory2096
This band refused to go on without Rick! After he lost his arm they had a special drum kit made for him and said he picked it up real fast. Most loyal band out there during this decade. ❤❤
