Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Baby I cannot read your signs
Baby mi wan fi just pull up to your crib see you wine
Wine, Wine, Wine, Wine
Wine, Wine, Wine, Wine
Baby I can't read between the lines
Baby mi can't put no trust in yuh when yuh wan tell me lies
Why, why, why, why
Why, why, why, why

She wan me ah take her to Jamaica
She wan me fi give her all my paper
In the gold and purple dress no Laker
The way she talk to me she ah need a saviour
She like in when mi around, she feel safer
Mi so attached no mi can't not escape her
Mi love the gyal no mi can't never snake her
She get so happy when mi in the news paper

African gyal bad just like Riri
Anything mi wan fi learn she ah teach me
She the only gyal that can always reach me
The pum pum fire like it when she tease me
Come and drop it to the ground come and please me
Every time she see me she wan squeeze me
Mi ah puff so much ganja got me wheezy
Why the gyal so fine she so dreamy, lemme talk to you

I don't know if it's your vibe but I rock with you
I wanna take you out maybe go on walks with you
Laying on the hill looking at the stars with you
Planning trips so I can go on mars with you
I mean usually you're not my type
Something different bout you baby we can vibe all night
I'm already getting visions of the bridal night
Me in my black tux and you wearing white on white, so

Controlla, I'm a controlla
Baby wan fi ride on me like a solider
Baby wan fi take a drive in my rover
And when it's all done baby let's do it all over
Sorry baby not the same when mi sober
Come right here baby come closer and closer
Mi ah wan fi touch your body till it's over, over
Mi ah come in the game takeover, over

Baby I cannot read your signs
Baby mi wan fi just pull up to your crib see you wine
Wine, Wine, Wine, Wine
Wine, Wine, Wine, Wine
Baby I can't read between the lines
Baby mi can't put no trust in yuh when yuh wan tell me lies




Why, why, why, why
Why, why, why, why

Overall Meaning

The song "Signs" by Jaybee is largely about miscommunication and lack of trust in a relationship. The chorus repeats the idea that the singer cannot understand the signals his partner is sending, and he is hesitant to trust her when she speaks. The first verse is about the singer's partner, who seems to want different things: she wants to go to Jamaica and be showered with gifts, but also wants the singer to be around to protect her. The second verse is about a different partner who is more sexually forward, and the singer enjoys being with her, even if he's not sure if she's his "type".



The frustration and uncertainty in the lyrics are conveyed through the melody and beat of the song. The chorus is catchy and repetitive, mirroring the confusion of the singer. The first and second verses have different rhythms, showing how different partners can have very different effects on the singer. Overall, the song explores the difficulties of communication and trust in romantic relationships, but maintains an upbeat and danceable tone.
