Sugar Beats Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A buh-buh buh buh-buh

A buh-buh buh buh-buh

You went to school to learn, girl
Things you never, never knew before

Like I before E except after C

And why two plus two makes four
Now now now, I'm gonna teach you
Teach you, teach you

All about love, dear
All about love

Sit yourself down, take a seat
All you gotta do is repeat after me.

ABC
Easy as
one, two, three
Or simple as
Do re mi
ABC, one, two, three, baby, you and me girl!
ABC
Easy as
one, two, three
Or simple as
Do re mi
ABC, one, two, three, baby, you and me!

Come on, let me love you just a little bit!
Come on, let me love you just a little bit!
I'm a going to teach how to sing it out!
Michael: Come on, come on, come on
Let me show you what it's all about!

Reading, writing and arithmetic
Are the branches of the learning tree

But without the roots of love every day, girl

Your education ain't complete
T-T-T-Teacher's gonna show you

Show you, show you

How to get an A!

Nyah nyah nyah nyah nyah nyah!

Spell "me" "you"
Add the two!
Listen to me baby, that's all you gotta do!

ABC
Easy as
one, two, three
Or simple as
Do re mi
ABC, one, two, three, baby, you and me girl!
ABC
Easy as
one, two, three
Or simple as
Do re mi
ABC, one, two, three, baby, you and me!

Sit down, girl!
I think I love you!
No!
Get up, girl!
Show me what you can do!

Shake it, shake it, baby, come on now!
Shake it, shake it, baby, ooo oooh!
Shake it shake it, baby, huh!
one, two, three, baby, oo ooo!
ABC, baby, nah nah!
Do re mi, baby, huh!
That's how easy love can be.

ABC
ABC, it's easy

Easy as one, two, three
It's like counting up to three
Or simple as Do re mi
Sing a simple melody
That's how easy love can be!

Easy as one, two, three
It's like counting up to three
Or simple as Do re mi




Sing a simple melody
That's how easy love can be!

Overall Meaning

The song 'ABC' by Sugar Beats is a catchy and energetic song, which is a remake of the Jackson 5's original song. The song primarily talks about the joy of love and how it is easy as learning the basic ABCs, which make the song relatable to a broad audience. The song opens with the repetitive 'buh-buh buh buh-buh' sound, which creates a fun atmosphere for listeners. The lyrics start on a light note, where the singer encourages the girl child to embrace education and learn new things like the English language rule 'I before E except after C' and the reason why two plus two equals four. However, the song takes a shift from education to focus on love, where the singer offers to teach the girl all about love, its simplicity, and its importance in life. The singer uses the ABCs analogy to illustrate how easy it is to learn and love, just like learning the basic ABCs, which is simple and enjoyable.


In the second verse, the singer highlights further the importance of love in life, stating that it's like the roots of the learning tree where education like reading, writing, and arithmetic is just but a branch of the tree. Without the roots of love, one's education can never be complete, emphasizing the significance of love in individual's lives. The song invites the girl to sit down and learn from the teacher, who promises to show her how to get an A in love, again utilizing the ABCs analogy. The singer then uses several words starting with "Nyah" to challenge the girl to spell "me" and "you" and add them together, which creates the word "us" showing how simple it can be.


Overall, the song 'ABC' combines light-hearted and playful lyrics with energetic and fun beats to create an enjoyable and timeless classic that is both catchy and uplifting.
