S.E.X.
Nickelback Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

"No" is a dirty word ,
Never gonna say it first,
"No" is just a thought that never crosses my mind.
Maybe in the parking lot,
Better bring your friend along,
Better all together than just one at a time.

S is for the simple need.
E is for the ecstasy.
X is just to mark the spot,
Cause that's the one you really want.
(Yes) sex is always the answer, it's never a question,
Cause the answer's yes, oh the answer's (yes)
Not just a suggestion, if you ask the question,
Then it's always yes, yeah!

I'm loving what you wanna wear,
I wonder what's up under there?
Wonder if I'll ever have it under my tongue?
I love to try to set you free,
I love you all over me.
Love to hear the sound you make the second you're done.

S is for the simple need.
E is for the ecstasy.
X is just to mark the spot,
Cause that's the one you really want.
(Yes) sex is always the answer, it's never a question,
Cause the answer's yes, oh the answer's (yes)
Not just a suggestion, if you ask the question,
Then it's always yes, yeah!

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Nickelback's song S.E.X. suggest an obsession with sex and a lack of inhibition when it comes to sexual exploration. The first verse suggests a willingness to engage in sexual acts without initially saying no or considering any reservations. The line, "Maybe in the parking lot, better bring your friend along, better all together than just one at a time" shows a desire for group sex and a lack of concern for safety. The chorus repeats the acronym S.E.X., emphasizing the primary focus of the song. The lyrics refer to sex as a simple need and an ecstasy, and the X is a mark where one wants to be touched. The final line of the song emphasizes that sex is always the answer and never a question, meaning that the person singing is always ready and willing to engage in sexual activity.


Overall, the song portrays a carefree attitude towards sex and a lack of concern for the consequences. It suggests that sex is a simple need that overrides everything else and that one should always say yes to sexual advances. Although the lyrics may be interpreted as promoting sexual liberation, the lack of consideration for safety and consent may perpetuate unhealthy attitudes towards sex.
