Pedialyte
JoJo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Good morning, need to get up
Get myself together
Open up the blackout blinds
Unbottle my emotions
Sippin' on a potion
Last night was a real good time
I don't know if I'm hungover
Or if I'm drunk right now
But people keep on calling
I don't do no talking
Last night was a real good time

All the drinks I had
Banging on my forehead
How did I get back?
Damn, I'm never gonna drink again

But every day's another celebration
Life is the occasion
Party 'til the sun's coming out again
But when I wake up
Who's gon' be my savior?
Excuse my behavior
Swear I'm never, never gonna drink again

Good afternoon, feeling bad still
I need a prayer and an Advil
I got too drunk tryna keep up
Slurring my words, tryna speak up
We always say just a few drinks
You know that I know what that means
Next thing, it's five in the morning
How is it five in the morning?

All the drinks I had (all that I had)
Bangin' on my forehead (bangin' on my head)
How did I get back?
Damn, I'm never gonna drink again (never gonna drink again)

But every day's another celebration
Life is the occasion
Party 'til the sun's coming out again
But when I wake up
Who's gon' be my savior?
Excuse my behavior
Swear I'm never, never gonna drink again

Ooh
Ooh, I know I'm gonna say it again

But every day's another celebration
Life is the occasion
Party 'til the sun's coming out again
But when I wake up
Who's gon' be my savior?
Excuse my behavior
Swear I'm never, never gonna drink again

(I'm never gonna)
(I'm never gonna)

(Take me)
(Take me)
(Take me)
(Take me)
(Take me) I forgive on my ex
(Take me) And my sex be the best
(Take me) It was love, it was fast
(Take me) Put in work, just get it back
(Take me) 69, lock it down
(Take me) Tear it up, make it bounce
(Take me) Say your name, say it loud
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
(Take me) Take me, take me
(Take me) (Makin' love to music)
(Take me) Take me, take me
(Take me) (Makin' love to music)
(Take me) Take me, take me
(Take me) Take me, take me (makin' love to music)




(Take me) Take me, take me
(Ooh)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of JoJo's song "Pedialyte" describe a morning after a wild night of partying, filled with regret and the aftermath of excessive drinking. The singer wakes up feeling the effects of the previous night's escapades, struggling to piece together the events and grappling with the physical toll of their actions. The opening verse sets the scene of the singer trying to gather themselves, facing the consequences of their hedonistic choices. There's a sense of disorientation and confusion as they navigate the haziness of their memory and the physical discomfort of a possible hangover.


As the lyrics progress, the singer reflects on the familiar cycle of partying and overindulgence, juxtaposed with the inevitable consequences that follow. Despite the temporary high of celebration and letting loose, there is a lingering sense of self-awareness and remorse for their behaviors. The repetition of "never gonna drink again" hints at a desire for change and a recognition of the destructive patterns that have taken hold. However, there is also an acknowledgment of the allure of festivities and the temporary escape they provide from reality.


The chorus emphasizes the recurring theme of celebration and the fleeting nature of joy in the singer's life. There's a yearning for someone to rescue them from their self-destructive tendencies, a plea for support and understanding amidst the chaos of their lifestyle. The lyrics capture the internal struggle between the desire for freedom and the need for stability, encapsulating the internal conflict that drives the singer's actions. Despite the promise of change, there is a sense of inevitability in the way they keep getting pulled back into the same patterns.


The closing lines of the song introduce a more sensual and intimate tone, juxtaposing the chaos of the night with moments of intimacy and connection. The references to past relationships and physical desire add a layer of complexity to the narrative, hinting at deeper emotional struggles beneath the surface. Ultimately, "Pedialyte" serves as a reflection of the tumultuous journey of self-discovery and redemption, showcasing the highs and lows of seeking liberation in a world filled with temptation and consequences.

Good morning, need to get up
Starting the day with the need to wake up and face the world


Get myself together
Pulling myself into a state of coherence


Open up the blackout blinds
Letting light shine on my emotions


Unbottle my emotions
Releasing buried feelings and thoughts


Sippin' on a potion
Taking a drink to soothe my soul


Last night was a real good time
Reflecting on a fun evening


I don't know if I'm hungover
Uncertain about my current state


Or if I'm drunk right now
Questioning my level of intoxication


But people keep on calling
Being interrupted by phone calls


I don't do no talking
Choosing not to engage in conversation


All the drinks I had
Recalling the beverages consumed


Banging on my forehead
Feeling the effects of alcohol on my head

Confusion about how I returned home


Damn, I'm never gonna drink again

Good afternoon, feeling bad still
Continuing to feel unwell in the afternoon


I need a prayer and an Advil
Desiring relief from a hangover


I got too drunk tryna keep up
Overindulging in an effort to keep pace


Slurring my words, tryna speak up
Struggling to communicate clearly


We always say just a few drinks
Often claiming to only have a couple beverages


Next thing, it's five in the morning
Surprised by the passage of time


Ooh, I know I'm gonna say it again
Acknowledging the likelihood of repeating oneself


Take me, take me (makin' love to music)
Expressing intimacy through music
