Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My love's a revolver, volver, volver, volver
Oops, I guess I shot ya
My finger's on the trigger
I had a bullet with your name on it, click click
I'm a sex pistol
My love should be illegal
Line 'em up, knock 'em down
If looks could kill, they will
My body's fully loaded
And I got more ammo
Line 'em up, knock 'em down
If looks could kill, they will
You're an accessory to murder 'cause
My love's a revolver
My sex is a killer
Do you wanna die happy?
Do you wanna die happy?
My love's a revolver
My sex is a killer
Do you wanna die happy?
Do you wanna die happy?
I let it bang, bang
You've been hit by a smooth criminal
A bad girl
I got you cryin' to your mama
Sayin' "I can't believe it"
I've seen your type, bring a knife into a gun fight
Caught up in the law right
I think I'm in love, I
Line 'em up, knock 'em down
If looks could kill, they will
My body's fully loaded
And I got more ammo
Line 'em up, knock 'em down
If looks could kill, they will
You're an accessory to murder 'cause
My love's a revolver
My sex is a killer
Do you wanna die happy?
Do you wanna die happy?
My love's a revolver
My sex is a killer
Do you wanna die happy?
Do you wanna die happy?
I let it bang, bang
I shoot 'em, bang, bang
I shoot 'em, bang, bang
Mirror mirror on the wall
Who's the baddest of them all?
I shoot 'em, bang, bang
I shoot 'em, bang, bang
I line 'em up and watch them fall
Bang, the shooter name is Wayne
The victim didn't complain
She just screamed "shoot again"
I gave her extra rounds
My barrel twist around
I am Mr.Shoot 'Em Down
I leave hearts on the ground
My love is a weapon
And yes, I use it well
Then I let the rose petals cover up the bullet shells
I never shoot and tell, I only shoot to kill
And that vest ain't gonna help ya
Even if it's made of steel
My love's a revolver
My sex is a killer
Do you wanna die happy?
Do you wanna die happy?
My love's a revolver
My sex is a killer
Do you wanna die happy?
Do you wanna die happy?
My love's a revolver
My sex is a killer
Do you wanna die happy?
Do you wanna die happy?
My love's a revolver
My sex is a killer
Do you wanna die happy?
Do you wanna die happy?
I let it bang, bang
I shoot 'em, bang, bang
I shoot 'em, bang, bang
I line 'em up and watch 'em fall
I shoot 'em, bang, bang
I shoot 'em, bang, bang
I line 'em up and watch 'em fall
Do you want to die happy?
Do you want to die? Yeah
The song "Revolver" by Lil Wayne featuring Madonna is a sultry, yet dangerous song about love as a weapon. The chorus featuring the line "My love's a revolver" is a metaphor for how love and sex can be dangerous and deadly. The repetition of "volver, volver, volver" brings in Madonna's Latin roots and adds a layer of seduction to the already alluring chorus.
The verses describe Lil Wayne as a sex pistol, and how his love should be illegal because it's so powerful. He talks about lining people up and knocking them down if their looks could kill. The verse about being a smooth criminal and catching someone off guard with a gun instead of a knife adds to the dangerous themes of the song. Lil Wayne's verse also talks about how he leaves hearts on the ground and how he only shoots to kill.
The bridge of the song is a mirror mirror on the wall who's the baddest of them all reference, but instead claims Lil Wayne is the bad guy in the situation. The song finishes with repeating the chorus and ending with the line "Do you want to die?" leaving the listener with a feeling of unease and wondering about the intensity of the couple's relationship.
