Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Color me your car
Color me your color, darling
I know who you are
Come up off your color chart
I know where you're comin' from
Call me (call me) on the line
Call me (call me) my love
You can call me any day or night
Call me
Cover me with kisses, baby
Cover me with love
Roll me in designer sheets
I'll never get enough
Emotions come, I don't know why
Cover up love's alibi
Call me (call me) on the line
Call me, call me any, anytime
Call me (call me) oh love
When you're ready we can share the wine
Call me
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, he speaks the languages of love
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, amore, chiamami, chiamami
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, appelle-moi mon cherie, appelle-moi
Anytime, anyplace, anywhere, any way
Anytime, anyplace, anywhere, any day-ay
Call me (call me) my love
Call me, call me any, anytime
Call me (call me) for a ride
Call me, call me for some overtime
Call me (call me) my love
Call me, call me in a sweet design
Call me (call me), call me for your lover's lover's alibi
Call me (call me) on the line
Call me, call me any, anytime
Call me (call me)
Oh, call me, oh, oh, ah
Call me (call me) my love
Call me, call me any, anytime
The lyrics of "Call Me" by Klaxons vs. Blondie feature themes of passion, desire, and love. The song is a conversation between two people, with the singer encouraging the other person to give themselves over to their desires. The repeated line "call me" emphasizes this idea, with the singer urging the other to reach out and make a connection. The use of color imagery (such as "color me your color") suggests that the singer wants to be fully immersed in the other person's world.
The first verse establishes the singer's desire to be "colored" by the other person, and to understand them fully. The second verse emphasizes physical affection and pleasure ("cover me with kisses," "roll me in designer sheets"), but also hints at an element of deception or dishonesty ("cover up love's alibi"). The chorus then returns to the idea of connection and desire, with the repeated "call me" urging the other person to take action.
The bridge of the song introduces a new element: the idea of language and communication. The lines "he speaks the languages of love / amore, chiamami, chiamami / appelle-moi mon cherie, appelle-moi" suggest that the singer is multilingual, able to communicate with the other person on a deeper level. Finally, the last chorus repeats the themes of the earlier verses, but adds a sense of urgency ("call me for some overtime").
Overall, "Call Me" by Klaxons vs. Blondie is a passionate, romantic song that encourages the listener to embrace their desires and reach out for connection with someone else.
