Sib Dab Dua
Silent Circle Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sib dub dua, sib dub dua,
Crashin' everywhere
Sib dub dua, sib dub dua,
A man like me won't care

Now is it day
Or is it night
I don't know really what is wrong or right

Say is it you
Or is it me
It's the same 'cause we are free

I feel the earth moving,
I see the stars tumbling night and day
I hear the car stoppin'
And worky five knockin'
Far away

I'd like to meet you,
I'd like to treat you
As you like (as you like)
It's no illusion,
It's no confusion,
That's all right (that's all right)

Chorus:

Sib dub dua, sib dub dua,
Crashin' everywhere
This rhythm is grooving like a heartbeat
Sib dub dua, sib dub dua,
A man like me won't care
(that's my one I don't need more)

I feel my car moving,
It's like a frog jumping
Up and down
The speaker stop crying
And set my soul flying
With the sound

Maybe it's raining,
Maybe it's snowing
I go on (I go on)
I see you waiting
Good time for sailing
Join my soul (join my soul)

Chorus

Overall Meaning

The song "Sib Dab Dua" by Silent Circle starts with a repetitive chorus "Sib dub dua" which mimics an onomatopoeic sound of something crashing repeatedly. This could signify the chaos and unpredictability of life. The following lyrics suggest a sense of disorientation, not knowing whether it's day or night, wrong or right. The singer doesn't seem to care about these distinctions, implying a free-spirited nature. The lyrics suggest that what matters is the feeling of being alive and the experience of experiencing the world around him. He feels the earth moving, the car stopping, and hears the knocking worky five, leading to a sense of sensory overload.

The song then moves on to express a desire to connect with someone. The singer wants to meet and treat the other person as they like, suggesting a desire for mutual understanding and acceptance. The repetitive chorus is used again here to signify a pulsating rhythm, like a heartbeat or a shared connection between people. The lyrics then describe the sensation of movement, like a frog jumping or the sensation of sailing. The last line of the song, "Join my soul," suggests that the singer wants to share his experiences with someone and find a deeper connection.
