All You Ever Think About Is Sex
Sparks Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Think about the places we've had our little fun
In the church at Christmas, busted by that nun
Then in that museum, beneath the mastodon
Stating our positions on the White House lawn

[Chorus]
All you ever think about is sex
All you ever think about exclusively
All you ever think about is sex, all right with me

Say, do you remember the Dodgers and the Mets
Fifty thousand people saw us and turned red
I'm still not recovered from Saturday's faux pas
When your father came home, saw us, and dropped dead

[Chorus]

In a world of lovers, we don't love each other much
Fact is, we're too busy to love each other much





[Chorus]

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Sparks's song "All You Ever Think About Is Sex" depict a relationship that is built purely on physical attraction and lust. The song talks about different locations where the couple has engaged in sexual activity, including in a church during Christmas where they were caught by a nun, in a museum beneath a mastodon, and on the White House lawn. These locations are meant to underscore the couple's insatiable desire for each other and their willingness to take risks to satisfy that desire.


The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "All you ever think about is sex" three times. It suggests that the relationship is purely physical and that there is little emotional connection between the two people involved. The song also mentions a moment when the couple was caught by the woman's father, who then drops dead. This moment is meant to be humorous and highlights the ridiculousness of the situation.


Overall, the lyrics to "All You Ever Think About Is Sex" are meant to be tongue-in-cheek and humorous. They poke fun at the idea of a purely physical relationship while also acknowledging that such relationships do exist. The song is a playful commentary on the nature of desire and lust in relationships.

It's insane how they went from pure glam rock to synth/new wave with such seamless ease.

@annabackman3028

And how they kept jumping around the musical genres, and when there was no fitting, they invented one! 💖

@SuburbanBehemoth

And for some reason, I assumed that they were British.

@jeanmichellelaurent

@@SuburbanBehemoth That or French, It blew my mind when it turned out they from California!!!!, Although they did take off in Europe before they hit america, and they did live in the United Kingdom for quite some time, So I understand the confusion

@grecomic

"We can't think of a music video so let's just throw cream pies at Ron."

@VoidEon

Also I think all those cream pies made Ron the most animated he's ever been in a music video ever (unless you count that time he was literally animated).

@kyachdistent1301

What you on about, that IS the video!

@mikevanroy9356

"Cream pies?" Are you thinking about sex?
