Rockabye Baby! Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've gotta say I'm on my way down
God give me style and give me grace
God put a smile upon my face
Where do we go to draw the line?
I've gotta say I wasted all your time, (oh honey honey)
Where do I go to fall from grace?
God put a smile upon your face, yeah
Now, when you work it out I'm worse than you
Yeah, when you work it out I wanted to
Now, when you work out where to draw the line
Your guess is as good as mine
Where do we go nobody knows?
Don't even say you're on your way down, (when)
God gave you style and gave you grace
And put a smile upon your face, ah yeah
Now, when you work it out I'm worse than you
Yeah, when you work it out I wanted to
Now, when you work out where to draw the line
Your guess is as good as mine
Its as good as mine
Where do we go nobody knows?
Don't even say you're on your way down, (when)
God gave you style and gave you grace
And put a smile upon your face
The lyrics of Rockabye Baby!'s song God Put A Smile Upon Your Face express the uncertainty and confusion of the singer as they try to find their path in life. The repeated question of "Where do we go nobody knows?" highlights the singer's feeling of being lost and directionless. They also seem to be experiencing a crisis of faith, as they ask God for "style and grace" but also seem to see themselves as "worse" than others and possibly deserving of falling from grace.
In the chorus, the singer turns from themselves to the person they are speaking to, addressing them directly as "you" and suggesting that God has given them gifts that should make them happy. The repetition of the phrase "put a smile upon your face" reinforces this message of happiness and gratitude, even in uncertain times.
The second verse continues the theme of uncertainty, with the singer acknowledging that they have wasted the other person's time and expressing a desire to "draw the line." However, they emphasize that they are no more certain than the other person about where that line should be drawn.
Overall, the song seems to be grappling with the difficulty of finding meaning and purpose in life, while still holding onto a sense of gratitude and hopefulness.
