Mungo Hi Fi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It’s nothing when I say I don’t care about you baby And that’s so much I know about you
You’re a dirty lier and I say ́†mannaggia a te†a Look at me now and tell me the truth
Your love ́†sta ‘n front’a te†a
Please don’t go away, please stay away
It’s nothing when I say I don’t care about you baby And that’s so much I know about you
It’s nothing when I say I don’t care about you baby And that’s so much I know about you
Drinkin’ Jonny Walker rolling bon to paparazzi Bring me back my money and beware of ragazzacci Cheers have a Martini
It’s nothing when I say I don’t care about you baby And that’s so much I know about you
It’s nothing when I say I don’t care about you baby And that’s so much I know about you
It’s nothing when I say I don’t care about It’s nothing when I say I don’t care
It’s nothing when I say
I don’t care about you
The lyrics of Mungo Hi Fi's song "Divorce" convey a sense of indifference and frustration towards a former lover. The repeated phrase "It's nothing when I say I don't care about you baby" highlights the singer's attempt to downplay their emotions and detach themselves from the relationship. The line "And that's so much I know about you" suggests that the singer has come to realize certain unpleasant truths about their ex-partner.
The lyrics also express a sense of betrayal and deceit, as the singer accuses their former lover of being a "dirty liar." The Italian phrase "mannaggia a te," which translates to "damn you," further emphasizes the singer's anger and disappointment. The line "Look at me now and tell me the truth" implies a demand for honesty and accountability.
Amidst the emotional turmoil, there are references to indulging in vices and seeking temporary escape. The mention of drinking Johnny Walker whiskey and rolling joints reveals the singer's attempts to numb their pain and distract themselves from the situation. The line "Cheers have a Martini, Gee con salatini" suggests a desire to enjoy the finer things in life despite the heartache.
Ultimately, the repetition of the phrase "It's nothing when I say I don't care about you baby" emphasizes the singer's attempt to convince themselves and others that they are unaffected by the end of the relationship. However, the lyrics also hint at unresolved feelings, as the repeated plea for the former lover to stay away contradicts the stated indifference. The song captures the complex mix of emotions that often accompany a breakup, including anger, resignation, and a struggle to let go.
