Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tell me what's colder
Tell me what, tell me what
Tell me what's colder
Tell me what, tell me what
Tell me what's colder
What can I say?
Baby I told ya
Over and over and over again
Don't tell me it's over
With your cold shoulder
What can I say?
Baby, what's colder than your cold shoulder?
I'mma get lost today
I'mma get lost, I'mma get lost
Sometimes I get the feeling
I need some sexual healing
I don't mind it's what it seems
We've been up the walls to the ceiling long time
You been running round my mind
Don't know what it means
But I could give two shits about your two cents
All night I'm chancing on the scene
Oh my, you know I'm gonna get it
Know I'm gonna sip it and the bitch gon' feel it
Long time, slow-mo up in it
Talk about a cold oh, hold up a minute
Tell me what's colder ...
Tell me what's colder than the cold shoulder?
What can I say?
Baby I told ya
Over and over and over again
Don't tell me it's over
With your cold shoulder
What can I say?
Baby, what's colder than your cold shoulder?
I'mma get lost today
I'mma get lost today
I'mma get lost today
I'mma get lost, I'mma get lost
Sometimes you gon' tell me to get lost
I might get a missed call
I'mma call back
Then you gon' tell me to calm down
Before we get off this dail
I'ma tell you, "Like who you are to tell me to calm down?"
Fuck it, and you know the whole town gon' hear it now
I should of never ever been involved with you in the first place but,
I guess we don't know nothing
And I guess it's how it goes (tell me what's colder)
But I know we both feel something (feel something)
We got a room full of misting colours
Oh no, no, no
What now, what's the problem?
Tell me what's colder than the cold shoulder?
What can I say?
Baby I told ya
Over and over and over again
Don't tell me it's over
With your cold shoulder
What can I say?
Baby, what's colder than your cold shoulder?
I'mma get lost today
Why'd you go so cold (cold)?
Zero below (low)
Why'd you go so cold (cold)?
Zero and below (low)
Tell me what's colder than the cold shoulder?
What can I say?
Baby I told ya
Over and over and over again
Don't tell me it's over
With your cold shoulder
What can I say?
Baby, what's colder than your cold shoulder?
I'mma get lost today
I'mma get lost today
I'mma get lost today
I'mma get lost today
I'mma get lost today
I'mma get lost today
I'mma get lost today
I'mma get lost today
I'mma get lost today
I'mma get lost today
I'mma get lost today
I'mma get lost today
I'mma get lost today
The song "Cold Shoulder" by Locnville featuring Sketchy Bongo talks about a relationship where one person is giving the other the cold shoulder. The song starts with Sketchy Bongo asking what could be colder than the cold shoulder his partner is giving him. He then goes on to express his frustration over the situation and how he is repeatedly told that it's over.
The second verse of the song reveals that the situation is due to sexual tension between the two partners. The singer reminisces about the moments they shared together in intimate detail before diverting the attention back to his partner's attitude. He feels like he's being ignored and being given the "cold shoulder" instead of being acknowledged.
The song emphasizes the frustration and confusion that come with being kept in the dark and receiving mixed signals from a partner. The chorus deals with the singer's need for closure, hoping that his partner will stop giving him the cold shoulder and instead tell him what's wrong.
Overall, "Cold Shoulder" reveals the singer's vulnerability and his struggle to understand his partner's actions. The song is relatable to anyone who has ever been on the receiving end of mixed signals in a relationship.
