Some lose, some steady
Some light, some heavy
It's all over this city
Sometimes in the ugly, sometimes in the pretty
You never know where you get it,
'Cause you can't control it and you can't unfold it, slow down
I'ma give it to you, baby
I'ma give it when I'm ready
Some lose, some steady
Some light, some heavy

You never know where you get it,
'Cause you can't control it and you can't unfold it, slow down

Safe like a rubber
Madder like a spider

Sometimes in the nitty, sometimes in the gritty
You know I'ma give it to you better
I'ma give you love forever
No, you can't control it, slow down
I'ma give it to you, baby
I'ma give it like a mother
Safe like a rubber
Madder like a spider

Sometimes in the nitty, sometimes in the gritty
You know I'ma give it to you better
I'ma give you love forever
No, you can't control it, slow down

The song Love is Free by Robyn & La Bagatelle Magique is about the beauty and complexity of love. The repetitive phrase "love is free, baby" emphasizes the idea that love is not something that can be bought or controlled, and instead must be freely given and received. The song describes love as being "all over this city," existing in both the good and the bad, the beautiful and the ugly moments of life. The lyrics encourage the listener to slow down and let love happen naturally, without trying to force or manipulate it.
The use of onomatopoeic sounds like "boom boom" and "chica boom" in the song adds to its fun and upbeat vibe, while also emphasizing the idea that love can be explosive and unpredictable. The verses contrast the repetitive chorus with lyrics that reflect on the varied experiences of love, describing how some people experience it as intense and passionate like a spider, while others experience it as safe and steady like a rubber. The song as a whole is a celebration of the power of love to bring joy and meaning to life.
