Birthday
Kings Of Leonๅ Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's in the curve of your pretty gown
You come on legs and your pantyhose
You look so precious with your bloody nose
We gonna come together, we gonna celebrate
We gonna gather 'round, like it's your birthday
I don't wanna know, just what I'm gonna do
Walking her home with the grassy field
Fallin' and laughin' at the drinks we spilled
Just one of those nights that I had to share
She's in a daze, without a care
We gonna come together, we gonna celebrate
We gonna gather 'round, like it's your birthday
I don't wanna know, just what I'm gonna do
I don't care where your going, I'm coming along with you
We gonna come together, we gonna celebrate
We gonna gather 'round, like it's your birthday
I don't wanna know, just what I'm gonna do
I don't care where your going, I'm coming along with you
In the first verse of Kings of Leon's song "Birthday," the singer describes the things about his lover that he finds alluring. He notes the way she "often calls [him] out" - perhaps she challenges him intellectually or emotionally, keeping him on his toes. He also mentions the curve of her "pretty gown," indicating that she has a certain grace and femininity that he finds attractive. She appears in pantyhose and with a "bloody nose," which is an interesting contrast - perhaps it shows that she can be both delicate and tough.
The chorus of the song is celebratory, suggesting that the singer and his lover are going to come together and have a good time, regardless of what they do or where they go. The imagery of a birthday party is used to emphasize this sense of joy and excitement. The singer doesn't need to know the details of the night, he just wants to be with his lover and share in the experience. The second verse describes the two of them walking home after a night of fun - they are clumsy and happy, enjoying each other's company without any cares or worries.
Overall, "Birthday" is a love song that celebrates the joy of being with someone you care about. The singer seems to see his lover as both vulnerable and strong, and he wants to be a part of her world no matter what they're doing.
