Relax
Richard Cheese Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When you want to go to it
Relax, don't do it
When you wanna
Relax, don't do it
When you wanna suck to it
Relax, don't do it
But shoot it in the right direction
Make making it your intention
Live those dreams
Scheme those schemes
Got to hit me
Hit me
Hit me with those laser beams
Relax, don't do it
When you want to go to it
Relax, don't do it
When you wanna
Come on Eileen!
The song "Relax" by Richard Cheese is a satirical take on the original song by Frankie Goes to Hollywood. In this version, Cheese parodies the lyrics, delivering them in a lounge-style performance that is both humorous and entertaining.
The opening lines, "Relax, don't do it/When you want to go to it/Relax, don't do it/When you wanna," seem to suggest that the songwriter is advising against overindulging in sexual desires. The repetition of the word "relax" can be seen as a tongue-in-cheek way of saying that it's okay to indulge in your desires, but don't take it too far. The next two lines, "Relax, don't do it/When you wanna suck to it/Relax, don't do it/When you wanna" continue the theme of indulgence, and it's easy to see why this song was controversial when it was first released.
Later in the song, the lyrics take a turn towards the absurd, with lines like, "But shoot it in the right direction/Make making it your intention/Live those dreams/Scheme those schemes/Got to hit me/Hit me/Hit me with those laser beams." These lyrics seem to suggest that the songwriter is encouraging listeners to pursue their dreams and desires with determination and aplomb. The "laser beams" may be a metaphor for focused energy and passion.
In all, "Relax" is a lighthearted and entertaining song that pokes fun at our culture's tendency towards excessive indulgence. Richard Cheese's lounge-style performance adds an extra layer of humor to the already absurd lyrics, making this a song that will appeal to fans of both satire and retro lounge music.
