DAZED AND CONFUSED
Die Antwoord Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Jissus, this is hard shit, aye
Aye, let's go back
Let's go to the Caribbean
Ah, my Ninja

I miss you, baby love, I'ma see you soon
Fuck it, I've been so busy, spinning 'round in a whirlwind
Can't you just come here? I just wanna be with you
I'm on a mission, but I'm missin' my little girlfriend

It's cool, you gotta do what you gotta do
I'm gonna be there soon, yo, baby, tell me what you want to do
Smoke a fat blunt, and snuggle up beside you
Oh, motherfuck, there's nothing in the world that I would rather do

Zef kid all around the world, I'm a busy girl
Missing my baby when I'm getting home
Calling doctor green thumb for some medicinal
Weed, fuck going out, I wanna be invisible
Pop a fat blunt in your mouth, there we go
Boy, you illin', chillin' like a villain, feeling all

Dazed and confused
So cute and paranoid
Dazed and confused
Dazed and confused, so

Dazed and confused
So cute and paranoid
Dazed and confused
Dazed and confused
So dazed and confused
So cute and paranoid

I'm in the fucking zone, yo, I've been working hard all day
Taking it to the next, yo, I been stepping up my game
Mass murderer, Ninja, he don't play
Got no time for a fuckboy, yo, I'll put him in his grave

We bring it hard, we make it rough
Soon I'm gonna take a break and go visit my baby love
Let's take a break, let's get away
Fuck it, I think Ninja deserves a little holiday

You, me, jump on a plane
I know where we should go, yo, it's gonna be insane
Yo, ask your friends if they wanna go
Tell them I got it covered, I be making fucking dough

Shrooms, bums, fun in the sun
Chillin' like a villain deep in the Caribbean
Sippin' champagne, smoking mad weed
All day, everyday

I miss you, baby love, I'ma see you soon
Fuck it, I've been so busy, spinning 'round in a whirlwind
Can't you just come here? I just wanna be with you
I'm on a mission, but I'm missin' my little girlfriend
Just keep doing what you doing, baby, kill them all
Soon, I'll be illin', chillin' like a villain, feeling all

Dazed and confused
So cute and paranoid
Dazed and confused
Dazed and confused, so

Dazed and confused
So cute and paranoid
Dazed and confused
Dazed and confused
So dazed and confused
So cute and paranoid





Oh my God

Overall Meaning

The song "Dazed and Confused" by Die Antwoord is about missing someone you love while being caught up in a busy, hectic lifestyle. The song starts off with Ninja and Yolandi discussing how difficult it is to balance their fast-paced life and their personal relationships. Even though Ninja is on a mission, he is missing his girlfriend and wishes that she could be with him. Yolandi assures him that he has to do what he needs to do, and that she will be there soon. The song then moves on to them discussing taking a break and going on a holiday together, where they can relax, have fun and be with each other. The chorus of the song, "Dazed and Confused, So Cute and Paranoid" portrays the mixed emotions of missing someone and being preoccupied with work.


The lyrics in the song reflect the heavy influence of marijuana on the artistic direction of Die Antwoord's music. Ninja and Yolandi use smoking weed as a way to relax and unwind, which is evident in lines like "Calling Doctor Green Thumb for some medicinal weed," and "Pop a fat blunt in your mouth, there we go." Additionally, the song also has elements of Caribbean music, as the song transitions into a more upbeat tempo when the artists decide to go to the Caribbean for their holiday.
