Lolita
Jake Mirador Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

you're the nicest view
outside of olly
with your long dark hair
and your porcelain skin

and you
never said my name
but i sing about you
nearly everyday

oh and you

you're the lightest blue
outside of champagne
paired up with a smile
just like a child

hello i think i'm finished
hello i think i did it

oh

oh i know i've said too much
i think i've become a crutch
when i go and make my bed
will you be there to touch me?

oh

you're the biggest tease
since the virgin mary
you've always kicked me
like a dog

hello i think i'm finished
hello i think i did it

oh i know i've said too much
i think i've become a crutch
when i go and make my bed
will you be there to touch me?

oh i know i've said too much
i think i've become a crutch
when i go and make my bed
will you be there to touch me?





oh

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Jake Mirador's song Lolita seem to describe the singer's deep infatuation with a girl who he admires from afar. He paints a vivid picture of her beauty, referencing her "long dark hair" and "porcelain skin" as well as her captivating smile. Despite never having had a direct interaction with her, the singer confesses that he thinks about her constantly and even sings about her every day. He is clearly obsessed with her and is hoping that she will reciprocate his feelings.


However, the tone of the song takes a darker turn in the second half when the singer seems to confront the harsh reality of the situation. He acknowledges that he may have said too much and become a crutch for her, indicating that he may have been overly needy or possessive in his pursuit of her. Additionally, he compares her to the Virgin Mary before admitting that she has treated him poorly, likening her to a dog that kicks him. Despite this mistreatment, the singer remains fixated on her and asks if she will be there to comfort him in his vulnerable moments.


Overall, Lolita can be interpreted as a cautionary tale about the dangers of excessive desire and the damage it can cause to both parties involved in a one-sided infatuation.
