Sweat
Mehrzad Marashi & Mark Medlock Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been watching you
(A la la la la long, a la la la la long long li long long long)
C'mon!
(A la la la la long, a la la la la long long li long long long)
Hey!

Standing across the room
I saw you smile
Said I want to talk to you
For a little while
But before I make my move
My emotions start running wild
My tongue gets tied
And that's no lie
Looking in your eyes
Looking in you big brown eyes
Ooh yeah
And I've got this to say to you
Hey!

Girl I want to make you sweat
Sweat till you can't sweat no more
And if you cry out
I'm gonna push it some, more, more
Girl I want to make you sweat
Sweat till you can't sweat no more
And if you cry out
I'm gonna push it
Push it, push it some more

(A la la la la long, a la la la la long long li long long long)
C'mon!
(A la la la la long, a la la la la long long li long long long)

So I said to myself
"Does she love me or not?"
But the dreads done know
That love is his to get
With a little bit of this
And a little bit of that
My lyric goes on the attack
My tongue gets tied
And that's no lie
Looking in your eyes
Looking in your big brown eyes
Ooh girl
And I've got this to say to you
Hey!

Girl I want to make you sweat
Sweat till you can't sweat no more
And if you cry out
I'm gonna push it some more, more more
Girl I want to make you sweat
Sweat till you can't sweat no more
And if you cry out
I'm gonna push it
Push it, push it some more

(A la la la la long, a la la la la long long li long long long)
Ooh yeah!
(A la la la la long, a la la la la long long li long long long)
One more time!
(A la la la la long, a la la la la long long li long long long)
Sing it!
(A la la la la long, a la la la la long long li long long long)
Hey!

Woo woo woo woo wee yeah
(Eyes)
Looking in your big brown eyes
And I've got this to say to you
Hey!

Girl I want to make you sweat
Sweat till you can't sweat no more
And if you cry out
I'm gonna push it some more
Girl I want to make you sweat
Sweat till you can't sweat no more
And if you cry out
I'm gonna push it
Push it, push it some more

(A la la la la long, a la la la la long long li long long long)
Yeah!
(A la la la la long, a la la la la long long li long long long)
Push it, push it some more
(A la la la la long, a la la la la long long li long long long)
Alright!




(A la la la la long, a la la la la long long li long long long)
Push it, push it some more

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Mehrzad Marashi and Mark Medlock's song "Sweat" describe the desire to connect with someone for a physical connection, specifically wanting to make them sweat. The song opens with the singer observing someone they are attracted to from across the room, and feeling nervous about approaching them. The chorus repeats the desire to make the person sweat until they can't sweat anymore, with the additional promise to push them further if they cry out. The second verse centers around the singer's insecurity about whether or not the person loves them, but ultimately returns to the desire for physical connection.


On one level, the lyrics can be interpreted as a celebration of sexual desire and attraction. However, it's worth noting that the repeated emphasis on making the person sweat until they can't sweat anymore could be seen as aggressive rather than playful or consensual. The lyrics also paint the singer as somewhat insecure and lacking in confidence, as indicated by the repeated mention of a tied tongue and wonderment about whether the object of their desire loves them back.


Overall, the lyrics to "Sweat" are straightforward and blunt, focused solely on the desire for physical intimacy with another person without a lot of nuance or complexity.


Line by Line Meaning

I've been watching you
I've been observing you for some time now


Standing across the room I saw you smile
I noticed you across the room, and I saw you smile


Said I want to talk to you for a little while
I expressed my desire to talk with you for a brief moment


But before I make my move my emotions start running wild
However, before I take action, my feelings become intense and uncontrollable


My tongue gets tied and that's no lie
I become speechless due to my nerves


Looking in your eyes, looking in your big brown eyes
I gaze into your eyes, your gorgeous brown eyes


Ooh yeah, and I've got this to say to you
Oh yeah, and I have something to tell you


Girl I want to make you sweat
Girl, I want to get you to work hard and sweat


Sweat till you can't sweat no more
I want you to keep sweating until you physically can't anymore


And if you cry out I'm gonna push it some more
If you express discomfort, I am going to intensify the workout even more


So I said to myself, "Does she love me or not?"
I pondered to myself, "Does she have feelings for me or not?"


But the dreads done know
But my hair (dreads) knows


That love is his to get
That I have the potential to receive love


With a little bit of this, and a little bit of that
With some effort and some strategy


My lyric goes on the attack
My lyrics become more aggressive


Looking in your eyes, looking in your big brown eyes
I gaze into your eyes, your beautiful big brown eyes


Ooh girl, and I've got this to say to you, hey!
Oh girl, and I have something else to tell you, hey!


Woo woo woo woo wee yeah
Exclamation of excitement and passion


And if you cry out, I'm gonna push it some more, push it, push it some more
And if you express discomfort, I'm going to intensify the workout even more

Ich bin nicht mehr jung, aber es ist immer wieder super. Da zucken die alten Knochen und man fühlt sich wieder jung. Schade es wird zu wenig gebracht in den Medien.

@seeroseirene4048

Mark Medlock ist für mich mit Abstand der beste, der bei DSDS je mitgemacht hat. Zeitweise klingt er wie Lionel Richie, einfach der Hammer!
Dennoch ist diese Kombi hier auch sehr hörenswert 😘
