Melina
Drake Bell Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Screaming, knows she really goes.
Every day at church, praising with a skirt.
In ways she make you got to grow.
Maybe you care, maybe you don't.
Maybe you could, maybe you won't.
Maybe I'm good, tell me I'm good.
Love, love, love to get off in the same way every day.
But it's tough, tough, tough to get off with you nagging constantly.
So go away, you lazy dame.
I can see Melina edging like a Tina.
Still she makes a dream flow, she nearly goes.
This is what life but this is what we got.
Just to pick us out of doubt.
Maybe you care, maybe you don't.
Maybe you could, maybe you won't.
Maybe I'm good, tell me I'm good.
Because we'd
Love, love, love to get off in the same way every day.
But it's tough, tough, tough to get off with you nagging constantly.
So go away, you lazy dame.
Maybe you care, maybe you don't.
Maybe you could, maybe you won't.
Maybe I'm good, tell me I'm good.
Because we'd
Love, love, love to get off in the same way every day.
But it's tough, tough, tough to get off with you nagging constantly.
So go away, you lazy dame.
Maybe I'm good.
Tell me I'm good.
Tell me I'm good...
The lyrics of Drake Bell's song "Melina" seem to be about a love triangle involving the singer, Melina, and another woman. The singer describes Melina as a captivating woman with a strong personality. He mentions that she attends church and wears skirts while praising, suggesting that she is a religious person. He also uses the phrase "she nearly goes," possibly indicating that Melina has a wild side that is just barely contained.
However, the singer seems to be conflicted about his feelings toward Melina. He asks himself if he cares about her, and wonders if he could or would pursue a relationship with her. He then asks someone to tell him that he's "good," which could mean he is asking for validation for his feelings toward Melina or for his own self-worth.
The chorus of the song seems to express the desire for routine and stability in a relationship, but the nagging of the other woman makes it difficult for the singer to find that stability. He uses the phrase "get off" which could mean that he wants to feel satisfaction or pleasure, but the nagging makes it tough to achieve that.
