Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Give me a little, give me
Give me a little, give me your
Give me a little, give me
Give me a little, give me your
Give me a little, give me
Give me a little, give me your
Give me a little, give me your
Give me a little, give me
Give me a little, give me your
Give me a little, give me
Give me a little, give me your
I bet you give it a little, more time
It's all that you need
A moment in mine
Don't give, entertainiacs won't talk about it
One man a minute, don't know all about it
Give it a little, give it more time
Oh-oh, take it from me
So give a little
Take it off
Give another moment
Take it off me
Give another
Take it off
Give another moment
Oh take it from me
Give me a little, give me
Give me a little, give me your
Oh baby give it, more time
The world doesn't need average to colour the lines
Who gives a damn, entertainiacs don't fuck with it
One minute baby, can change it, baby give it a little, give it more time
The world will give you something
Wait, don't let it pass
It's time for them to notice
Have it in your grasp
The world will give you something
Wait don't let it pass, no
Oh-oh, so maybe give it a little, give it more time
Oh-oh, take it from me
So give a little
Take it off
Give another moment
Take it off me
Give another
Take it off
Give another moment
Oh take it from me
Give me a little, give me your
Give me a little, give me (oh, from me, take it from me)
The world will give you something
Have it in your grasp
The world will give you something
Have it in your grasp
Don't wait for them to notice
Make it your own path
The world will give you something
Have it in your grasp, oh, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
So give a little
Take it off
Give another moment
Take it off me
Give another
Take it off
Give another moment
Oh take it from me
Give me a little, give me your
Give me a little, give me
Give me a little, give me your
Give me a little, give me
Nao’s song “Give Me a Little” is about the anticipation and desire for something that is just out of reach. Nao sings about the idea that if you hold on just a little longer, and give it more time, the world will give you what you’re looking for. The chorus, “Give me a little, give me your” is a plea to whoever is listening to give her what she desires. She believes that if you’re patient and persistent, it will eventually come.
Throughout the song, Nao encourages the listener to not give up and to keep going because there is something worth fighting for. She sings, “The world doesn’t need average to color the lines,” implying that we should strive for more than mediocrity. In the second verse, she sings “The world will give you something, wait don’t let it pass,” emphasizing the importance of not letting opportunities slip away.
Nao’s use of the term “entertainiacs” is also notable. It is a play on the word “entertainers” and insinuates that people who are only concerned with entertainment and surface-level enjoyment won’t understand the importance of waiting for and working toward something meaningful.
Overall, “Give Me a Little” is a song about perseverance and not settling for mediocrity. It encourages listeners to hold on and keep going, reminding them that something worth having takes time and patience.
