Ida Maria Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So bring me consciousness
And kill my innocence
Please lay your eyes on me
Lead me in the dance
Give me no chance to reconsider, reconsider
I'm Queen of the world
I spin around in circles
And I'm singing, and I'm singing I'm singing
Why can't I stay like this?
Dear God.
Oh let me be young
Let me stay, please
Oh let me stay like this oh
Bring me home
I've got no plans for tomorrow
I've got no plans for tomorrow
I got no plans insight
In fact I'm free this week
I'm free this month
I lonely, lonely this year
I'm lonely forever
But today, oh
I'm Queen of the world
I bump into things
I spin around in circles
And I'm singing, and I'm singing I'm singing
Why can't I stay like this?
Dear God.
Oh let me be young
Let me stay, please
Oh let me stay like this oh
And I'm singing, I'm singing I'm singing
I'm Queen of the world
I bump into things
I spin around in circles
And I'm singing, and I'm singing I'm singing
Why can't I stay like this?
Dear God.
Let me be young
Let me stay, please
Oh let me stay like this oh
The song "Queen of the world #1" by Ida Maria is an upbeat, energetic anthem that captures the feeling of being young, free, and alive.

As the song progresses, the singer declares herself "Queen of the world," reveling in her own excitement and enthusiasm. She admits to being somewhat clumsy ("I bump into things") but takes joy in the simple pleasures of spinning around and singing.
The repeated refrain, "Why can't I stay like this? / Dear God, let me be young / Let me stay, please / Oh let me stay like this oh," captures the fleeting nature of youth and the desire to hold onto that feeling of carefree joy and abandon.
Overall, "Queen of the world #1" celebrates the exuberance of youth and the thrill of being alive in the moment. It's a song that invites listeners to embrace their own sense of freedom and adventure, and to savor every precious moment of life.
Line by Line Meaning
Whiskey please, I need some Whiskey please
I need to drink whiskey to numb myself from reality
So bring me consciousness
Drinking whiskey will bring me to a state of awareness
And kill my innocence
Drinking will cause me to lose my innocence and purity
Please lay your eyes on me
I want someone to pay attention to me
Lead me in the dance
I want someone to take control of me and lead me in a carefree dance
Give me no chance to reconsider, reconsider
I don't want to second-guess my actions
I'm Queen of the world
I feel invincible and empowered
I bump into things
I am reckless and impulsive
I spin around in circles
I am carefree and living in the moment
And I'm singing, and I'm singing I'm singing
I am expressing my joy and freedom through song
Why can't I stay like this?
I don't want to face the harsh realities of life
Dear God.
An address to a higher power for help with this desire
Oh let me be young
I want to remain naive and carefree
Let me stay, please
I don't want to face the responsibilities of growing up
Bring me home
I want to return to a state of comfort and safety
I've got no plans for tomorrow
I am directionless and not concerned about the future
I got no plans insight
I have no insight into what my future holds
In fact I'm free this week
I have no obligations or responsibilities this week
I lonely, lonely this year
I have been feeling lonely all year
I'm lonely forever
I feel like my loneliness will never go away
But today, oh
However, in this moment I am happy and carefree
