Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Did you see the new sofa?
Oh cool!
Let's take it for a ride.
Mary-Kate, it's only a sofa.
It's a sofamobile!
It is?
Now, stick your finger in the cushion like this and turn it.
Amazing.
Hold on!
Watch out for the lamp!
Oops.
Quick! Pedel to the medal!
Where to?




Head for the play room!
No! The back yard!

Overall Meaning

The song "Sofamobile" by Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen is a lighthearted and imaginative tune about turning a sofa into a makeshift vehicle. The song begins with the two sisters discussing a new sofa that has caught their attention. Excited by the idea, they decide to take the sofa for a ride, with Mary-Kate insisting that it is more than just a sofa, but a sofamobile. The girls then proceed to ride the sofa around the house, with Ashley cautioning Mary-Kate about the potential dangers of hitting furniture or other objects.


Despite the humorous and playful nature of the song, it touches on the themes of imagination, adventure, and sisterhood. The girls are able to find joy and excitement in using their creativity to turn an ordinary object into something new and exciting, while also relying on each other to navigate their adventures safely.


Interestingly, "Sofamobile" was released in 1995 as part of Mary-Kate and Ashley's first album, which was titled "Brother for Sale." The album was a commercial success, reaching platinum status in the United States.
