Hot
Perry Farrell & D.V.D.A. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh, baby, every time that we kiss, hot lava!
And every time that we make love, that's lava, hot lava!
It's lava so hot it makes me sweat,
And lava so warm and red and wet!
Mountain is rumbling, must find a safer place,
Soon the wrath of Pele, will fall upon your face.
Great nectar of the gods, spews rock from Pinutabo,
Mixed with a woman's sweat, makes the lava we know.
Oh, baby, every time that we kiss, hot lava!
And every time that we make love, that's lava, hot lava!
It's lava so hot it makes me sweat,
And lava so warm and red and wet!
Burning through the forest, where red hot lava flow,
Rolls down the island's body, and into the ocean below!
When it meets the cool cool water, here's your main sludge of living rich
Magma flowing into a subaqueous environment produces pillar lava
Hydrostatic pressure of sea water tends to inhibit the vesicle size of the basalt!
Oh, baby, every time that we kiss, hot lava!
And every time that we make love, that's lava, hot lava!
It's lava so hot it makes me sweat,
And lava so warm and red and wet!
And after the eruption,
You lay dormant for a while..
Let's just hold each other and talk.
For now, Pele sleeps..
Oh, baby, every time that we kiss, hot lava!
And every time that we make love, that's lava, hot lava!




It's lava so hot it makes me sweat,
And lava so warm and red and wet!

Overall Meaning

The song "Hot Lava" by D.V.D.A. featuring DJ Nu-Mark is about the intense passion between two lovers who compare their attraction to each other with the hot and intense lava. The lyrics describe the experience of kissing and making love as hot lava that is so intense and passionate that it makes them sweat. They compare this to the volcanic eruption of Mount Pinatubo and the wrath of Pele, the goddess of volcanoes in Hawaiian mythology. The lyrics also mention that the lava is mixed with a woman's sweat, making it even more intense.


The song builds up to the climax of the eruption, with the lava burning through the forest and rolling down the island's body into the ocean. The lyrics describe how magma flowing into a subaqueous environment produces pillar lava and how the hydrostatic pressure of seawater tends to inhibit the vesicle size of the basalt. The song then calms down, with the lyrics suggesting that after the eruption, they lay dormant for a while and hold each other and talk.

And every time that we make love, that's lava, hot lava!
Similarly, when we are intimate, the fire burning between us is like molten lava


It's lava so hot it makes me sweat,
This passion is so intense that it makes me break out in a sweat


And lava so warm and red and wet!
The passion we feel is also warm, inviting, and sensual


Mountain is rumbling, must find a safer place,
Because of the energy we share, it feels as though a volcano is about to erupt and we need to find a safe place


Soon the wrath of Pele, will fall upon your face.
If we don't find a way to quell this intense passion, it will consume us and cause destruction like the wrath of the Hawaiian goddess Pele


Great nectar of the gods, spews rock from Pinutabo,
Molten rock, which is considered to be the nectar of the gods, erupts forcefully from Pinatubo Volcano


Mixed with a woman's sweat, makes the lava we know.
When the molten rock mixes with the sweat from a woman, it creates the lava that we see during volcanic eruptions


Burning through the forest, where red hot lava flow,
The lava flows hot and fast, consuming everything in its path, including forests


Rolls down the island's body, and into the ocean below!
The lava flows down the sides of the island and eventually meets the cool ocean water


When it meets the cool cool water, here's your main sludge of living rich
The lava cools and hardens when it reaches the water, creating new land that is full of life and nutrients


Magma flowing into a subaqueous environment produces pillar lava
When molten rock flows into water, it hardens in the shape of pillars, creating pillar lava formations


Hydrostatic pressure of sea water tends to inhibit the vesicle size of the basalt!
The pressure of the ocean water can impact the size of bubbles that form in the hardened lava rock


And after the eruption,
Once the intense passion has subsided


You lay dormant for a while..
We return to a state of normalcy and calmness for a period of time


Let's just hold each other and talk.
Let's take a moment to connect on an emotional level and talk about our feelings


For now, Pele sleeps..
For now, the intense passion has subsided and we can rest until it awakens again

3rd verse lyrics are way off (easy to see as it doesn't make sense). What it should be:

When it meets the cool, cool water, there's a big flow of the living
rich magma flowing into an obsequious environment. Produces pillow lava. 
Hydrostatic pressure of sea water tends to inhibit the vestal size of the basalt

Listen carefully and those (above) are indeed the lyrics

(Geology rocks!)

EDIT: Turns out this mistake is EVERYWHERE on the internets - lolz

A life changing album for me. This song, along with System Of A Down's song and Crystal Method's song got me into metal/heavy rock while Rancid and Joe Strummer's songs got me into punk. I was 13 then. Now I'm 28 and still into that stuff so I've been listening to that kind of music most of my life now!

@Lastcookie
