BABY SAID
Maneskin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Are you close to your mother?
Tell me 'bout your dream vacation
And all of your ex lovers
Tell me now
What's that look on your face?
She puts her hand on my lips, begging
"Please, end this conversation"
Baby said
"When you're talking, I go dead"
"Shut your mouth, give me your head" (uh-uh-uh-uh)
I know you really want to
Baby said
"Let me taste your silhouette"
"You can talk between my legs" (uh-uh-uh-uh)
I know you really want to
Tell me, what's your favorite color?
And all of your ambitions
I'm not afraid of you being vulgar
But why are you so vicious?
Tell me now
"What's that look on your face?"
She puts her hand on my lips, begging
"Please, end this conversation"
Baby said
"When you're talking, I go dead"
"Shut your mouth, give me your head" (uh-uh-uh-uh)
I know you really want to
Baby said
"Let me taste your silhouette"
"You can talk between my legs" (uh-uh-uh-uh)
I know you really want to
I was runnin' and runnin' and runnin' and runnin' and runnin' after you
I was runnin' and runnin' and runnin' and runnin' and runnin' after you
I was cryin' and lovin' while you were just comin' and howlin' at the moon
Yeah, you were runnin' and runnin' and runnin' away from this conversation
Baby said
"When you're talkin', I go dead"
"Shut your mouth, give me your head" (uh-uh-uh-uh)
I know you really want to
Baby said
"Let me taste your silhouette"
"You can talk between my legs" (uh-uh-uh-uh)
I know you really want to (ow!)
I wish she didn't, but my baby said
I wish she didn't, but my baby said
I wish she didn't, but my baby said
I wish she didn't, but my baby said
The lyrics to Maneskin's song "Baby Said" are about a conversation with a lover in which the singer tries to get to know the lover on a deeper level by asking about their thoughts on subjects like religion, family, and past relationships. However, the lover seems uninterested in having a serious conversation and instead asks for sexual favors: "shut your mouth, give me your head / let me taste your silhouette." The singer is frustrated by this lack of connection and wishes that their lover did not prioritize physical intimacy over emotional intimacy.
The repeated line "baby said" emphasizes the lover's dominance in the conversation and indicates that their desires and demands are the primary focus. The chorus of the song is particularly powerful in its repetition of "when you're talking I go dead," highlighting the emotional disconnection between the singer and their lover.
Overall, the lyrics to "Baby Said" convey a sense of frustration and disappointment in a relationship that is built on physical pleasure rather than emotional connection. The singer desires a deeper level of intimacy with their lover that goes beyond surface-level conversation and sexual gratification.

@TRUTHBEINGTOLD-rk3ni
20 And God spoke all these words, saying,
2 I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
6 And showing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
7 Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
13 Thou shalt not kill.
14 Thou shalt not commit adultery.
15 Thou shalt not steal.
16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.
(Exodus 20:1-17)
