MIKA Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just to be wild and free?
Caught up in the rough, caught up in the rush of life
Staring at me.
You think you're in love boy,
but you don't really know what love is
You think you're in love girl,
but honey let me show you where your heart is
Loverboy, is just illusion to me
You could take any boy,
I'd show you what you would feel
Pretty boy with a nasty trace
Funny boy with an ugly face
Love is just a cautionary, momentary, reactionary lie
Love is just a cautionary, momentary, reactionary lie
Isn't it enough, isn't it enough
just to be sunny and dumb?
Aren't you tired of hookin' up, sick of breaking up?
Oh you fool, you did it for fun
You think you're in love girl,
but you don't really know what love is
You think you're in love boy,
but honey let me show you where your heart is
Loverboy, is just illusion to me
You could take any boy, I'd show you what you would feel
Pretty boy with a nasty trace
Funny boy with an ugly face
Love is just a cautionary, momentary, reactionary lie
Loverboy, is just illusion to me
You could take any boy,
I'd show you what you would feel
Pretty boy with a nasty trace
Funny boy with an ugly face
Love is just a cautionary, momentary, reactionary lie
Love is just a cautionary, momentary, reactionary lie
Loverboy, is just illusion to me
You could take any boy,
I'd show you what you would feel
Pretty boy with a nasty trace
Funny boy with an ugly face
Love is just a cautionary, momentary, reactionary lie
In Mika's song "Loverboy," he questions the authenticity of love and relationships. He starts by asking if being wild and free is not enough and speaks about the rush of life that often clouds judgment. He addresses the concept of love, saying that those who claim to be in love do not truly understand what it means. He explains that to him, love is just an illusion, a momentary, reactionary lie that people fall for.
Mika talks about the dangers of falling for the wrong person, someone who may seem attractive on the outside but has an ugly face or personality. He notes that love is a cautionary tale that people should take seriously. He concludes that one could take any boy or girl, and he would show them what they would feel, signifying that love is not exclusive and can be found with anyone.
The song expresses a cynical perspective on love and relationships, highlighting that people often confuse lust and attraction with genuine love. Mika encourages listeners to be cautious while navigating romantic relationships.

Loverboys are all about illusions. I can prove to you that any boy could make you feel the same way. Don't be fooled by appearances because love is temporary and reactive.
Isn't it enough, isn't it enough
just to be sunny and dumb?
Aren't you tired of hookin' up, sick of breaking up?
Oh you fool, you did it for fun
Isn't it sufficient to be naive and enjoy life's simple pleasures? Aren't you tired of casual relationships and breakups? Oh, you silly person, you did it all just for fun.
Love is just a cautionary, momentary, reactionary lie
Love is temporary and reactive, serving as a warning.
