When
Jive Bunny Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can feel a new expression on my face
I can feel a glowing sensation taking place
I can hear the guitars playin' lovely tunes
Every time that you walk in the room

I close my eyes for a second and pretend it's me you want
Meanwhile I try to act so nonchalant
I feel a summer's night with a magic moon
Every time that you walk in the room

Baby it's a dream come true
Standin' right along side of you
Wish I could show you how much I care
But I only have the nerve to stare

I can feel a something pounding in my brain
Just any time that someone speaks your name




Trumpets sound I hear thunder boom
Every time that you walk in the room

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "When in 2-3" by Jive Bunny & The Mastermixers revolve around the feelings of a person who is attracted to someone they see. Whenever the person enters the room, the singer's expression changes as they feel a glowing sensation throughout their body. The sound of lovely tunes played by the guitars fills the air as the person walks in, creating an indescribable feeling for the singer. They try to act cool and collected but end up completely lost in the moment. The singer wishes to express their feelings to the person they are attracted to, but they can't find the courage to do so. So, they stand there staring at them, hoping that someday, they'll build up the courage to speak up.


The lyrics of this song explore the idea of love at first sight, the feeling of not being able to express your feelings, and the desire for a person. The lyrics are simple yet poignant, and they connect with the emotions that anyone feels when they are in love. The singer is entirely lost in their feelings, and they find themselves lost in the moment every time the person they're attracted to walks in. The lyrics are a tribute to the intense feelings that love can bring, and they manage to convey the feeling of vulnerability and shyness that often accompanies it.

Despite being born in the early 2000s my mum used to love playing this, she played it so much it was addictive, that it just came back into my head and despite my mum sadly passing away recently it stills reminds me of funny memories of me and my mum dancing to this 🤣❤️

My parents had this cassette when I was very small. Tonight I had a random clip of it pop into my head. After 2 hours of searching I have found it! Such a masterpiece!!

You should play I Wanna Be Rich. When I was in my 20s. I used to go to a neighbor bar. And I would by the DJ a drink every time he played that song. Plus I gave him 20.
