Liquid
Roni Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I go liquid when you come around
And I know
I go solid but don't get me wrong
Yes I go
I love to watch you when you mess around
With my mind
I'm pathetic but only this time
Who knows?

And now I say

It's no more a secret
I go solid, I go liquid
Oh me...
If it's the love that we live for, how come I didn't know?
Show me an easy way out (2x)

Forget the love 'n get back in the line
With yourself
Try to accept the place where you belong
You belong
I love to teach you though you already know
But this time
Stay in touch if you're planning to go
Below

And now I say

And I say

And I say





Show me an easy way out (2x)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Roni's song "Liquid" explore the feelings of an individual when they are attracted to someone. The opening line states "I go liquid when you come around," which means that the person feels their emotions intensify when the person they like is near them. However, the lyrics also mention going "solid," which can be interpreted as the person trying to hide their emotions or play it cool.


The following lines describe how the person enjoys watching the person they like "mess around with their mind." The term "pathetic" is used, which suggests that the person feels vulnerable and powerless in their attraction. However, they're not opposed to experiencing these emotions, as they say "only this time."


The chorus of the song talks about how their attraction was a secret, but they're now revealing that they go "solid" and "liquid" when around the person they like. The lyrics also question how it is possible to live for love when the person singing did not know they were in love.


The bridge of the song suggests a need to come to terms with one's emotions and accept where they belong. There are lines about teaching someone they already know and staying in touch, which convey a need to communicate even though one might not be ready to act on their feelings.


Overall, "Liquid" is a song that explores the complex emotions that arise when someone is attracted to someone else. It portrays the vulnerability and unpredictability of such attractions while also suggesting a need to accept and communicate one's emotions.

First time i tried ecstasy was at a rave in Newcastle at the Uni basement for a night called Turbulence. Just as the pill began to come up and i got those tingly rushes and spaced out eyes feeling for the very first time Roni stepped up to the decks with MC Dynamite and proceeded to drop some stinking bassline smashers. Best feeling of my life! I think you always remember the first time you drop Ecstacy and i feel lucky mine was just as Roni Size started to spin a rinse out set back in the 90's. What could be better? I can't remember much of that night except bouncing like a nutter when Roni double dropped Alien Girl with brown paper bag then pulled a rewind and the roar of the crowd around me, plastic bottles flying everywhere. Mc Dynamite shouting " toon toon black and white army" before Roni double dropped it again. wish i could do it all again.
