"I mean, everyone loves payday. It’s like the best day of the week. Everyone loves getting money, getting paid. So, I just want to be loved by everybody. Just want to be a part of that. You know?"

Alphabet Soup
Payday Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I really like you, wanna get to know you better
I don't want SpaghettiOs and I don't want no petty hoes
We've been going steady so just call me when you ready though
Yeah, I keep a couple secrets in the pockets of my baggy jeans
Searching for a reason why you should and come and laugh with me
Tragedy it be if you'd never ever reply to me
I can write you a letter
Or maybe texting is better
I don't want this forever
But it's better than never
Always got you on my mind
I can never find the time
Sometimes I wish I could fly, fly
Alphabet soup, spell your name with the letters
I really like you, wanna get to know you better
I don't want SpaghettiOs and I don't want no petty hoes
We've been going steady so just call me when you ready though
No time for this or that
Promise I'ma hit you back
You got everything I lack
I've been gone, I know it's wack
Always got you on my mind
I can never find the time
Sometimes I wish I could fly, fly
Alphabet soup, spell your name with the letters
I really like you, wanna get to know you better
I don't want SpaghettiOs and I don't want no petty hoes
We've been going steady so just call me when you ready though
The lyrics of "Alphabet Soup" by Payday convey a message of a person's desire to get to know someone they like better. The opening line, "Alphabet soup, spell your name with the letters," suggests a playful approach to getting to know someone by using the letters of their name like those found in alphabet soup. The following lines, "I really like you, wanna get to know you better," confirm the singer's attraction to the person and their interest in forming a deeper connection.
The chorus of "Alphabet Soup" repeats the playful opening line but adds, "I don't want SpaghettiOs and I don't want no petty hoes." This line indicates the singer is looking for something genuine in their relationships rather than something superficial or temporary. The last line of the chorus, "We've been going steady so just call me when you ready though," suggests that the singer and the person they like have been seeing each other for some time.
In the verses, the lyrics delve into the singer's thoughts and feelings about the situation. They express both hope and fear that the person they like will respond to their advances. "Searching for a reason why you should come and laugh with me. Tragedy it be if you'd never ever reply to me," illustrates the singer's anxiety about being rejected. Meanwhile, "I can write you a letter or maybe texting is better. I don't want this forever, but it's better than never," demonstrates their willingness to pursue the relationship in different ways and desire for some form of commitment.
