Come
Lick Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm standing on the corner with my feet in my shoes
Racking my brains how to pay my dues
My jug is empty of my number one booze
Along comes a viper and I blow my blues

I got the elation, hesitation, dissipation, coagulation
Relation, angzation, emancipation, propagation
Moppin', soppin', talk about your coppin' blues!
It's never too late to be up to date
You can get it now but you'll have to wait

Along comes a chick, comes a little dolly
She's out waling her big fat collie
"Golly," Miss Molly says, "you're looking might jolly!"
"There ain't none left but I'm really mighty solly"

I got the outerspace, what a race, dropped an ace
In my face, a goose-chase, you wanna taste
Match it, scratch it, stretch it, catch it blues!

It's never too late to be up to date
You can get it now but you'll have to wait
Just because she made them googly eyes
I thought I'd won home and copped a prize, uh-huh

Uh-huh
Wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo
Wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo
Wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo

The way I'm talking it might be a sin
But if it's cool, think I'll try again
Want a little, just hit me with a fin
It'll blow your mind so you won't know where you been

I got the elation, hesitation, dissipation, coagulation,
Relation, angzation, emancipation propagation,
Moppin', soppin', talk about your coppin'
Outer space, what a race, dropped an ace in my face
A goose-chase, you wanna taste, match it, scratch it, stretch it, catch it blues

It's never too late to be up to date
You can get it now but you'll have to wait
Just because she made them googly eyes
I thought I'd won a home and copped a prize, uh-huh

Uh-huh
Wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo




Wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo
Wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in Lick's song "Come In" depict a person with a jug empty of their favorite drink, standing on the corner and not knowing how to pay their dues. However, along comes a viper (a reference to the nickname for a heroin addict), and they "blow their blues" (a possible reference to getting high to forget about their problems). The person then lists several emotions and conditions they are feeling, such as elation, hesitation, and coagulation, before transitioning to talking about a woman who comes along with her dog. She compliments the person, but they tell her there is "none left" (referring again to their drink). The person then repeats some of the emotions and conditions they listed before, as well as a phrase about "talkin' about your coppin' blues," which may be a reference to buying drugs.


Overall, the lyrics seem to be about someone struggling with addiction and trying to forget about their problems through substance abuse. The person is also possibly looking for companionship or a way out of their situation through relationships, but ultimately feels stuck in their ways and unable to escape their "blues."

I have run out of my favorite alcohol

But if it's cool, think I'll try again
If it is okay with her, I will make another attempt to impress her


Want a little, just hit me with a fin
If you want something from me, give me a five-dollar bill


It'll blow your mind so you won't know where you been
I will do something so impressive that it will leave you amazed


Wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo
Non-lyrical sounds in the background


The way I'm talking it might be a sin
My speech might be inappropriate or unbecoming


But if it's cool, think I'll try again
If it is okay with her, I will make another attempt to impress her


Want a little, just hit me with a fin
If you want something from me, give me a five-dollar bill


It'll blow your mind so you won't know where you been
I will do something so impressive that it will leave you amazed

The fact that sheโ€™s with her same friends makes me respect her a lot. Many people will switch up real quick.

@IENetworkTV

totally agree i love that and then a lot of them getting record deals of their own

@jonjones7137

Respect and Glorilla should not be in the same lane

@Picoloisblack

The irony of respecting her after she makes the trashiest song is wild!!!!! Then Black women wonder why they are sexualized.
