Drop It Like Its Hot
Neon Hitch Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
An inclination
That's what I got
You turn the heat on me
Some like it hot
Look what we started
A revolution
We like the way it burns
Some like it hot
I'm from that old school
I play it real cool
Cooler than the ice on my Jameson
Still cold
Yeah, Kinetics
She carries a lie
She carefully cries
Happy in photos but nobody notices
Someone who's lonely and barely alive
When Marilyn died
The entire cemetery was live
She was still naked inside of a casket
And sipping a flask when carried inside
Call out the engine
Ring up the station
A gypsy on the block
Love burns us up the most
Like it or not
I'm on the 301
The train to paradise
That's where it stops
Red lights make us sweat
Some like it hot
I'm from that old school
I play it real cool
Cooler than the ice on my Jameson
Still cold
Neon Hitch's Drop It Like It's Hot is a song that is all about passion, turning the heat up, and embracing the fire in your heart. The lyrics of this song illustrate the artists' feverish feelings and her desire to ignite a revolution of acceptance and love. The opening lines of the song, "I got a fever, an inclination, that's what I got, you turn the heat on me, some like it hot" serve as a metaphor for the artist's intense emotions, which have been sparked by the person she is singing to.
In the second verse, she sings about the revolution she has started. She has encouraged people to take another shot, to embrace the way that love can burn in a good way. While some may fear the heat, she knows that some like it hot. The chorus repeats the central message of the song, emphasizing the artist's passion and willingness to turn up the temperature.
The third verse explores the artist's personality and style. She describes herself as being "from that old school" and playing it real cool. The lines "cooler than the ice on my Jameson, still cold" suggest a sense of detachment and mystery. In many ways, Neon Hitch is an enigma, as she is both hot and cold at the same time.
