Dumbo
Suchmos Lyrics

The lyrics of Suchmos's song DUMBO depict the lead singer's desire for a mysterious, enigmatic woman who is described as "midnight sexy" and "sticky." He is drawn to her dangerous and addictive allure, as demonstrated by the lines "please listen to the sea of drug and carbonated." The woman is portrayed as a "culture junky" who shuns society's norms and conventions, as seen in the line "the guys are an eyesore." Despite their attraction, the singer acknowledges that he doesn't understand the woman's motivations, saying "I Don't know what you want to do" and declares that he doesn't need any more "fantasy" or "sympathy."

The imagery in the lyrics is vivid and intense, creating a sense of seduction and danger. The use of the word "sticky" to describe the woman adds a physical quality to the lyrics, emphasizing the singer's physical attraction to her. The references to drugs and addiction suggest that the woman is both alluring and dangerous, and the line "please listen to the sea of drug and carbonated" is particularly striking.

Overall, the lyrics of DUMBO capture the complicated and often dangerous nature of attraction and desire, and the seductive pull of the unknown.
