Password
Kylie Minogue Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I want the taste of you tonight
I've got a look on me
Like the cat who's got the cream
Prrr
I take you for a gambling man
I place my bets as high as I can
Shall we see
Meet me in the bedroom
At quarter past eleven
Say the lucky words I'm looking for
And we'll be locking up the door
Baby, if you wanna be in my world
You've gotta know the password
To make it right
Tell me you're thinking hard
I don't want this to fall apart
I've got a feeling that
We could just make our team
I'm careful with my heart
I'm a fussy girl and love's an art
Tell me that you're hiding
Something up your sleeve
Please
Meet me in the bedroom
At quarter past eleven
Say the lucky words I'm looking for
And we'll be locking up the door
Baby, if you wanna be in my world
You've gotta know the password
To make it right
Baby, if you wanna be in my world
You've gotta know the password
I think you might
Tell me the password baby
Understand I'm a lady
It's not the hand you've got
But how you play it
Baby what's the password
Baby what's the password
In Kylie Minogue's song Password, she sings about meeting someone and wanting to know if they're the right one for her. The lyrics begin by describing the singer's eagerness to be with this person and how they have a look of satisfaction, just like a cat who's just had some cream. She wonders if this person is a gambler who's willing to take a chance on her, and she bets high to realize her dream of being with them. She asks this person to meet her in the bedroom at quarter past eleven and tells them to say the lucky password she's looking for so that they can lock the door and be together.
Throughout the song, Kylie emphasizes the importance of knowing the right password to be with her. She wants this person to tell her that they're thinking hard about this and that they're not going to let this fall apart. She's being careful with her heart because she's a fussy girl, and love is an art to her. She asks this person if they're hiding something, hoping that they'll reveal what's on their mind. Finally, she asks for the password, emphasizing that she's a lady, and it's not the hand you've got but how you play it.
