Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I conquer every army still you destroy me
I broken every law, I've committed every sin
I've defied the laws of nature still you make me bend.
I cannot comprehend, how you make me bend
I cannot defend 'cause your so damn wicked
she's bad, twisted, goddamn, bitch is wicked
she's bad, twisted, good god, girl she's wicked
yes and I've been said to burn the witch
burn the witch, witch, burn the witch
I have crumbled kingdoms brought the leaders to their knees
I have cast out demons still you possess me
I have brought down empires, I have seen the nations end
I'm a force of nature still you command my will
I cannot comprehend, how you make me bend
I cannot defend 'cause your so damn wicked
She's bad, twisted, good god, girl she's wicked
she's bad, twisted, goddamn, bitch is wicked
she's bad, twisted, good god, girl she's wicked
yes and I've been said to burn the witch
burn the witch, witch, burn the witch
You can say whatever you like in your defense
but it will fall on deaf ears, cause I'm just here
to burn the witch
She's bad, twisted, good god, girl she's wicked
she's bad, twisted, goddamn, bitch is wicked
she's bad, twisted, good god, girl she's wicked
yes and I've been said to burn the witch
burn the witch, witch, burn the witch
The lyrics to "Wicked" by Texas Hippie Coalition describe the power and influence a woman has over the singer. Despite his achievements in conquering mountains, seas, armies, and breaking laws, the woman still has the ability to make him bend and possess him. He describes her as wicked, twisted, and bad, acknowledging that others have even called her a witch. The singer seems to be in awe of her power and unable to resist her, even though he knows she is bad for him.
The repeated refrain of "burn the witch" implies that the woman is being punished for her power and ability to control the singer. The fact that he acknowledges that he cannot defend himself against her shows that he has given into her power and is unable to break free from her hold. The lyrics suggest that the woman is dangerous and even though he knows this, he is still drawn to her.
Overall, "Wicked" is a passionate and intense song about the power of women and their ability to control others. The singer is emotionally vulnerable and deeply affected by the woman's power over him.
