Frank Sinatra & アントニオ・カルロス・ジョビン Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Baubles, bangles, hear how they jing, jinga-linga
Baubles, bangles, bright shiny beads
Sparkles, spangles, your heart will sing, singa-linga
Wearin' baubles, bangles and beads

She glitter and gleam so
Make somebody dream so
That some day I may buy her a ring, ringa-linga
I've heard that's where it leads
Wearin' baubles, bangles, and beads

She should glitter and gleam so
Make somebody dream so
That some day, some day I may buy her a ring, ringa-linga
I have heard that's where it leads




Wearin' baubles, bangles, and beads
All those noisy bangles, and beads

Overall Meaning

The song 'Baubles, Bangles and Beads' is a classic example of a song that explores the love of material objects, with its lyrics focusing on the joy of adorning oneself with shiny jewels and the aspiration to capture a man's attention through that. The lyrics describe the melodic jingling sound of the jewelry, and how it adds to the glamour and beauty of the wearer. The song encourages the listener to flaunt their jewelry, and to aim for something more significant, like a ring from a lover. The imagery used in the lyrics is simple yet refined, painted with vivid language.


The song could be interpreted as a commentary on societal values, where material possessions are valued more than they should be. The person wearing the jewelry is seen as more valuable because of it, and it leaves the impression that the only way one can capture the affection of another is by displaying such items. The song speaks to the idea of materialism and its influence on people's mindset.
