Jezebel Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh, yeah
Why can't I be like you?
Flying so high as a kite
Never knowing what you do it for

When you are young
No one tells you anything
They just hope you don't make the same mistake and become
Just like them

Oh, I would wait a thousand years
I'd roll a thousand stars
I'd wait until the sun eclipsed the moon
Oh, I would give the kiss of life

If only you would say
Oh, come live with me and love me
And, I will surely stay
I will stay

Oh, why can't I be like you?
Always so wrong, but so right
Never knowing what you'd do it for
For you are young, no one tells you anything

I just hope you don't make the same mistakes and become
Just like them
And, I would wait a thousand years
I'd roll a thousand stars

I'd wait until the sun eclipsed the moon
Then, I would give the kiss of life
If only you would say
Come lay with me and love me

And, I would surely stay, I will stay
(What are you wondering?)
(What are you hungry for?)
(Why do you worry?)

Oh, I will wait a thousand years
To share my world with you
I'll wait until the sun should kiss the sky
Oh, I would give the kiss of life

If only you would say
Oh, come lay with me and love me
Ah, tell me that you'll stay, I'll stay
Tell me you'll stay, tell me you'll stay

Say you'll you'll stay
(What are you wondering?)
(What you hungry for?)
(Why do you worry?)

(What are you waiting for?)
I would give
I would give
I would give you the stars

Till the moon is lovers own
I will follow wherever you are
(My kiss for your dreams)
Oh, I would give the kiss of life

If only you would stay




Come lay with me and love me
And I will surely stay, I will stay

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Jezebel's song "Kiss Kiss" are about the singer's admiration for someone who is carefree, uninhibited, and unafraid to take risks. The singer wonders why she can't be like the person she admires, flying high as a kite without a care in the world. She reflects on how when you're young, no one really teaches you anything; they just hope you don't make the same mistakes they did. The singer would wait a thousand years and give the kiss of life to this person if they would only say that they'll stay and love her.


Overall, the song speaks to the universal desire to be free and unencumbered by rules and conventions, as well as the fear of growing up and becoming like the people who caution you against taking risks. It's also about the bravery it takes to put yourself out there and offer your heart to someone, even if they might not feel the same way. The lyrics are wistful and romantic and capture the feeling of longing for someone who seems unattainable.

Jezabel"

You will walk into a room
You've got killer eyes that hypnotise
You're dangerous
Oh yeah, you're dangerous
You've got a snaky kinda strut
It's too hot to touch
Can't trust a thing you do or say
Gotta stay away

One by one
You've gone from man to man to man.
Until your mission is done

[Chorus:]

Jezabel, kiss and tell
You use your body, just to cast
Your spell
And sell your story
You're just a Jezabel, kiss and tell
You ride the headlines like a carousel
Of fame and glory

I'm going down your windin' road
Around those killer curves
That work my nerves
You're dangerous
Slippery and dangerous
You've got a camera down your shirt
You've got a slit in your skirt
For your dirty work tonight
Now ain't that right
Here you come
You've gone from bed to bed to bed
And now the damage is done

[Chorus]

One by one
You've gone from man to man
Until your mission is done

[Chorus]
