Grease
Grease Original Film Cast Feat. Frankie Valli Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I solve my problems and I see the light
We got a lovin' thing, we gotta feed it right
There ain't no danger we can go too far
We start believing now that we can be who we are
Grease is the word

They think our love is just a growing pain
Why don't they understand? It's just a crying shame
Their lips are lying only real is real
We stop the fight right now, we got to be what we feel
Grease is the word

Grease is the word, is the word that you heard
It's got groove it's got meaning
(Grease) grease is the time, is the place, is the motion
Grease is the way we are feeling

We take the pressure and we throw away
Conventionality belongs to yesterday
There is a chance that we can make it so far
We start believing now that we can be who we are
Grease is the word

Grease is the word, is the word that you heard
It's got groove it's got meaning
(Grease) grease is the time, is the place, is the motion
Now, grease is the way we are feeling

This is the life of illusion (illusion)
Wrapped up in trouble (trouble), laced with confusion
What are we doing here?

We take the pressure and we throw away
Conventionality belongs to yesterday
There is a chance that we can make it so far
We start believing now that we can be who we are (be who we are)
Grease is the word

Grease is the word, is the word that you heard
It's got groove it's got meaning
(Grease) grease is the time, is the place, is the motion
Now, grease is the way we are feeling

(Grease) grease is the word, is the word that you heard
It's got groove it's got meaning (got a groove, got a meaning)
(Grease) grease is the time, is the place, is the motion
Now, grease is the way we are feeling

Grease is the word
Is the word
Is the word
Is the word
Is the word
Is the word
Is the word

Overall Meaning

In the song Grease, the lyricist talks about the power of love and how it can solve any problem. The first verse of the song talks about how the couple needs to invest in their relationship and feed it the right way. The lyrics suggest that there is no danger in doing so because they can take it as far as they want to. The couple has to start believing that they can be themselves.


The second verse talks about how other people view their love as a growing pain that they will eventually outgrow. The couple disagrees with this view and thinks that it is a shame that their love is not understood. The lyricist believes that the truth never lies, and it is essential to stop pretending and be true to oneself. The chorus repeats that the word Grease is used to describe the way they are feeling and the groove and the meaning behind it.


The lyrics encourage people to throw away conventionality and be who they want to be. The pressure to conform belongs to yesterday, and there is a chance to make it far by believing in oneself. The song continues to reiterate that Grease is the word that describes the time, place, and motion of how they are feeling.

Brilhantina

Eu resolvo meus problemas e vejo a luz
Nós temos uma coisa amor, temos que alimentá-lo direito
Não há perigo que pode ir longe demais
Começamos a crer agora que podemos ser quem somos

A palavra é brilhantina

Eles acham que nosso amor é apenas uma dor crescente
Por que eles não entendem, é apenas uma vergonha chorar
Seus lábios estão mentindo que só o real é real
Paramos para lutar agora, temos que ser o que sentimos

A palavra é brilhantina
Tem uma sensação, um significado
Brilhantina é o tempo, é o lugar, é o movimento
Brilhantina é como nos sentimos

Nós pegamos as pressões e as jogamos longe
O que for conveniente pertence ao passado
Há uma chance de fazer isso
Começamos a crer agora que podemos ser quem somos

A palavra é brilhantina
Tem uma sensação, um significado
Brilhantina é o tempo, é o lugar, é o movimento
Brilhantina é como nos sentimos

Esta é uma vida de ilusão
Cheia de problemas amarrada em confusão
O que estamos fazendo aqui?

Nós pegamos as pressões e as jogamos longe
O que for conveniente pertence ao passado
Há uma chance de fazer isso
Começamos a crer agora que podemos ser quem somos

A palavra é brilhantina
Tem uma sensação, um significado
Brilhantina é o tempo, é o lugar, é o movimento
Brilhantina é como nos sentimos

A palavra é brilhantina
Tem uma sensação, um significado
Brilhantina é o tempo, é o lugar, é o movimento
Brilhantina é como nos sentimos

A palavra é brilhantina
É a palavra
É a palavra
É a palavra

Just saw him live 3 days ago. 88 years old and his performance was flawless.

@JV-wj7sn

Awesome, going to see him Friday July 22 in Costa Mesa California.

@jg5887

was it flawless cos he lip synced?

@dustbagwx5186

@J G Maybe he was but it sure didn't sound like it. Wasn't close enough to tell. I'm sure he does often at his age, but it sounded like a live performance to me. Whether he did or not my family and I had a great time, and I am grateful that I got a chance to see him just once. Was a great show regardless.

@Mp25DIII

Big deal if he lip syncs, 75% of the acts do it now

@jg5887

@MP25DIII 75% lip sync, but atleast a big chunk of them really sell it. bro looked like an animatronic LOL

Yo naci en 1961, era adolescente en los 80. Afortunado porque vivi esa epoca de oro. Ahora tengo 61 años. Recuerdo las chicas de la epoca. Ahora son abuelitas. Me da nostalgia escuchar esta musica. Recuerdo que la escuchabamos en la radio, era la era del cassette, pero casi nadie tenia . Que tiempos

@Yamilett61

Tenemos la misma edad

@kevins9346

I was born in 89 and I'll do everything I can to keep this music alive.
