KILL KILL
G-Nine Lyrics

In G-Nine's song "Kill Kill," the lyrics "Wise men say only fools rush in, but I can't help falling in love with you" are borrowed from the classic Elvis Presley song "Can't Help Falling in Love." G-Nine creates a stark contrast between the romantic sentiment in the original lyrics and the violent imagery present throughout the rest of "Kill Kill." The lyrics "Shall I stay? Would it be a sin? If I can't help falling in love with you" become ominous in this context, suggesting that the singer may be dangerous or unstable. The repetition of "Like a river flows, surely to the sea, darling, so it goes, some things are meant to be" creates a haunting refrain that emphasizes the inevitability of violent actions taking place.

G-Nine's choice to incorporate the upbeat melody and lyrics of "Can't Help Falling in Love" into a song about violence invites the listener to consider the prevalence of romanticized violence in our culture. The juxtaposition of these two disparate elements creates a sense of unease and discomfort, forcing the listener to confront the disturbing reality that love and violence are often intertwined in society.
