Wrong Number
The Cure/Musicfire.in Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Are the sickly sweet colors of the snakes I'm seeing
Lime green, lime green and tangerine
Are the sickly sweet colors of the devil in my dreams
Lime green, lime green, lime green and tangerine
Are the sickly sweet colors of the snakes I'm seeing
Lime green, lime green and tangerine
It gets to Friday and I give you a call
You know I'm getting kind of worried
She doesn't seem herself at all
Lime green and a sickly kind of orange
I've never seen her like this before
I had the best laid plans this side of America
Started out in church and finished with Angelica
Red and blue soul with a snow white smile
Can you dig it, can you dig it, can you dig it
I had the best laid plans this side of America
Started out in church and finished with Angelica
And now I dig it in the dirt
And I'm down here for a while
I'm down here for a while
You've got to make up your mind and make it soon
Is there room in your life
For one more trip to the moon?
Is there room in your life
For one more?
Burn red burn red and gold
Are the deep dark colors of the snakes I hold
Burn red burn, red and gold
The deep dark colors of the devil at home
She pulls me down just as I'm trying to hide
Grabs me by the hair and drags me outside
And starts digging in the dirt
For a not so early bird it's the only way
For her to get the worm
I had the best laid plans this side of America
Started out in church and finished with Angelica
Red and blue soul with a snow white smile
Can you dig it, can you dig it, can you dig it
I had the best laid plans this side of America
Started out in church and finished with Angelica
And now I dig it in the dirt
And I'll be down here for a while
I'm down here for a while
Hello?
Are you still there?
Hello? are you still there?
And much too late
Sorry, wrong number
Sorry, wrong number (yeah sorry you have the wrong number)
Du, du, du, du
Du, du, du, du
Du, du, du, du
Du, du, du, du
Ah, oh, ah, oh
The lyrics of "Wrong Number" by The Cure/Musicfire.in describe a person's vivid dreams and hallucinations of snakes and the devil, represented by the sickly-sweet colors of lime green and tangerine. The person is worried about a friend who seems unwell, as indicated by her strange behavior, which is also reflected in the unsettling colors. The lyrics then shift to the person's own plans and experiences, ending with a phone call that is cut off with the realization of a wrong number.
The lyrics convey a sense of disorientation and confusion, as the person's perceptions and plans are upended by unexpected events. The colors, specifically the lime green and tangerine, add to the feeling of unease and suggest something unnatural or disturbing. The mention of digging in the dirt for a worm further emphasizes the themes of decay, death, and the unknown.
