Do It Again
Garry Blake And His Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You hadn't any right
I really shouldn't have let you
Kiss me.
And although it was wrong
I never was strong.
So as long as you've begun it
And you know you shouldn't have done it.
Oh.
Do it again.
I may say no. no. no. no. no.
But do it again.
My lips just ache
To have you take the kiss
That's waiting for you
You know if you do
You won't regret it
Come and get it.
Oh.
No one is near
I may cry oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh.
But no one can hear.
Mamma may scold me
Coz' she told me
It was naughty but then
Please,
Do it again.
Yes do it again. And again and again and again and again and again
Turn out the light.
And hold me close
In your arms
All through the night.
I know tomorrow morning
You will say
Goodbye and Amen.
But until then
Please do it again.
The lyrics to Garry Blake and His Orchestra's song, Do It Again, are about a forbidden romance. The singer acknowledges that what they are doing is wrong and that they shouldn't have allowed the other person to kiss them. However, despite knowing that they are making a mistake, the singer cannot resist the temptation to be with this person. They beg the other person to kiss them again, even though they know it is not the right thing to do. The singer understands that they will face consequences, such as their mother scolding them, but they still want this moment with the other person.
The lyrics reflect the internal struggle of choosing between desires and moral standards. The singer knows that what they are doing is incorrect, but they cannot help but enjoy the feeling of being with the person they desire. The song conveys a sense of passion, but also the understanding that there will be ramifications for their actions. It is a bittersweet tale of giving in to temptation and the aftereffects of such a decision.

Within your loving embrace
All through the night.
Till morning comes

You will say
You will tell me
Goodbye and Amen.
Farewell and so be it
But until then
Until morning comes
Please do it again.
Please kiss me again
