The-1975 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey now call it a split 'cause you know that you will
Oh you bite your friend like chocolate
You say, we'll go where nobody knows
With guns hidden under our petticoats
No we're never gonna quit it, no we're never gonna quit it, no

Now we run run away from the boys in the blue
And my car smells like chocolate
Hey now think about what you do, think about what they say
Think about how to think
Pause it play it, pause it play it, pause it

Oh we go where nobody knows, with guns hidden under our petticoats
No we're never gonna' quit it, no we're never gonna' quit it no
Yeah we're dressed in black from head to toe
We've got guns hidden under our petticoats
No we're never gonna' quit it no we're never gonna' quit it no

Now you're never gonna quit it
Now you're never gonna quit it
Now you're never gonna quit it
If you don't stop smoking it
That's what she said
She said we're dressed in black, head to toe
With guns hidden under our petticoats
No we're never gonna quit it, no we're never gonna quit it, no

Hey now we're building up speed as we're approaching the hill
Oh my hair smells like chocolate
Hey now you say you're gonna quit it but you're never gonna quit it
Go get it, go get it, go get it, go
And play it cool

Oh and you said we go where nobody knows
With guns hidden under our petticoats
No we're never gonna' quit it, no we're never gonna' quit it no
Yeah we're dressed in black, from head to toe
We've got guns hidden under our petticoats
We're never gonna' quit it, no we're never gonna' quit it no

Well I think we better go, seriously better go
Said it's better than hanging on
Seriously better go, oh oh
Well I think we better go
Said it's better than hanging on
Said Rebecca better know
Seriously better go

We go where nobody knows, with guns hidden under our petticoats
No we're never gonna' quit it, no we're never gonna' quit it no
Yeah we're dressed in black, head to toe
With guns hidden under our petticoats
No we're never gonna quit it
No we're never gonna quit it, no

Well I think we better go, seriously better go
Said the feds are here you know
Seriously better go
Oh oh, well I think we better go
Said the feds are here you know




Said Rebecca better know
Seriously better go

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to “Chocolate” by The 1975 are a mixture of metaphors and imagery. The song speaks about the desire to abandon the mundane and escape reality. The opening verse goes, “Hey now call it a split 'cause you know that you will, oh you bite your friend like chocolate.” This verse can refer to a couple of different things. It can be interpreted as the break up of a couple, or it can be seen as a metaphor for the kind of twisted love that a person has towards their friend. The second verse says, “Now we run run away from the boys in the blue, and my car smells like chocolate…” This line refers to a car chase, and the fact that they are evading the police. The song also speaks of the act of smoking and not stopping, and of “guns hidden under our petticoats,” which can be interpreted as a form of sexual empowerment.

You're determined to continue this lifestyle


Now we run run away from the boys in the blue
You're running from the police or authority figures


And my car smells like chocolate
Your car has a sweet, intoxicating scent like chocolate


Hey now think about what you do, think about what they say
You need to consider the consequences of your actions and listen to advice


Think about how to think
You need to reflect and evaluate your mindset


Pause it play it, pause it play it, pause it
You're indecisive and keep changing your mind


Oh we go where nobody knows, with guns hidden under our petticoats
You're still seeking an escape and a need for protection

You're moving towards a climax and danger is looming


Oh my hair smells like chocolate
Your senses are heightened and various smells stand out


Hey now you say you're gonna quit it but you're never gonna quit it
You're making false promises and unwilling to change


Go get it, go get it, go get it, go
You're determined to chase after what you want


And play it cool
You're trying to remain calm and collected in the face of danger


Well I think we better go, seriously better go
It's time to leave and avoid getting into serious trouble


Said it's better than hanging on
Leaving is better than staying and facing the consequences


Said Rebecca better know
Warn a friend named Rebecca about the situation


Said the feds are here you know
The police or government officials have arrived


No we're never gonna quit it
Reiterating your determination to continue your lifestyle
