Claudius
Max Manie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I try to put my arms around you
All because I wanna hold you tight
But every time I reach for you, baby
And try to kiss you
You're just jumping out of sight

Oh, I've got news for you
Baby, that I've made plans for two
Oh, I've got news for you
Baby, that I've made plans for two

With other girls I've wanted
I've made it just a moment
With you I'll share each day
Now I know you've heard about me
Bad things about me
Baby, please let me explain
Oh, I have kissed a few
I tell you, a few have kissed me too
One more time baby

I try to put my arms around you
All because I wanna hold you tight
But every time I reach for you, baby
And try to kiss you
You're just jumping out of sight

Oh, I've got news for you
Baby, that I've made plans for two
Oh, I've got news for you
Baby, that I've made plans for two

With other girls I've wanted
I've made it just a moment
With you I'll share each day
Now I know you've heard about me
Bad things about me
Baby, please let me explain
Oh, I have kissed a few




I tell you, a few have kissed me too
One more time baby

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Max Manie's song Claudius are about a man trying to express his love to a woman and convince her to be with him. He tries to hold her and kiss her, but she keeps moving away. The man assures the woman that he has plans for them to be together and that he has only had brief encounters with other girls, whereas he wants to share each day with her. He acknowledges that she may have heard negative things about him but urges her to let him explain and reminds her that it takes two to kiss.


The song portrays a struggle for love and acceptance. The man is desperately trying to convince the woman that he is different from the rumors she may have heard about him. He wants her to know that he is serious about her and has made plans for them to be together. The repetition of the phrase "oh, I've got news for you" emphasizes his determination to win her over.


Overall, the lyrics illustrate the importance of communication in a relationship and the need to be open and honest with each other. The man is transparent about his past and wants the woman to trust him and give him a chance.
