Icona Pop Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Na na na, na na na

All I need in this life of sin is me and my girlfriend
Down to ride till the happy end, is me and my girlfriend

Where would you be, be without me
We'll never find out
What would I do, do without you
We'll never know now

Talking bout the lights, the dirt, the sh-t, that hurts
We're not gonna turn around
We're doing this for good, for worse
The gift, the curse, we're not gonna back down

All I need in this life of sin is me and my girlfriend
Down to ride till the happy end, is me and my girlfriend
All I need in this life of sin is me and my girlfriend
Down to ride till the happy end, is me and my girlfriend

I wanna feel the sun, the waves, the wind in my face
The speed, the chase, na na na
I wanna feel the sun, the waves, just wanna cross the states, making up as we go
That's how's gon' be, young wild and free
Not gonna slow down
Up to the max, until we crush, we're not gonna stop now

All I need in this life of sin is me and my girlfriend
Down to ride till the happy end, is me and my girlfriend

Na na na, na na na
Na na na, na na na





All I need in this life of sin is me and my girlfriend
Down to ride till the happy end, is me and my girlfriend

The lyrics also touch on the idea of freedom, with the lines "That's how it's gonna be, young, wild and free, not gonna slow down." This can be interpreted as a rejection of societal norms and expectations, with the couple choosing to live their lives on their own terms.
