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 start 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
Gotta get it, gotta get it, gotta get it, gotta 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
No no 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

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of this song by The 1975 are quite cryptic and open to interpretation. It seems to describe a pair of friends who are running away from something, possibly the police or some other authority figure. They are young and rebellious, and are determined to keep going no matter what obstacles they face. They have hidden guns under their petticoats, suggesting that they are prepared to use force if necessary.


The opening lines, "Hey now call it a split 'cause you know that you will, Oh you bite your friend like chocolate," seem to suggest a sense of division or separation between the two friends. The line "bite your friend like chocolate" is a metaphor for their close bond, but also suggests a certain tension or conflict between them. It's a bittersweet relationship that they both know can't last forever.


The chorus emphasizes their determination to keep going, despite the odds against them. The repeated line "no we're never gonna' quit it" is a defiant statement of their refusal to give up. They are dressed in black and have guns hidden under their petticoats, suggesting that they are dangerous and unpredictable.


Overall, the song seems to be about youth, rebellion, and the desire to break free from authority. It's a quintessential coming-of-age story that many teenagers can relate to.
