Do you love the nazis
The Kids Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You broke my heart 'cause I couldn't dance,
You didn't even want me around.
And now I'm back to let you know I can really shake 'em down.

Do you love me?
(I can really move, )
Do you love me?
(I'm in the groove.)
Now do you love me?
(Do you love me now that I can dance?)
Watch me, now.
(Work, work)
Ah,work it out baby.
(work, work)
Well, you're drivin' me crazy.
(work, work)
With just a little bit of soul, now
(work!)
Now I can mash potatoes, I can do the twist,
Tell me, baby, do you like it like this?
Tell me,
(Tell me,)
Tell me.

Do you love me?
(I can really move, )
Do you love me?
(I'm in the groove.)
Now do you love me?
(Do you love me now that I can dance?)
Watch me, now.
(Work, work)
Ah,work it out baby.
(work, work)
Well, you're drivin' me crazy.
(work, work)
With just a little bit of soul, now
(work!)
Now I can mash potatoes, I can do the twist,
Tell me, baby, do you like it like this?




Tell me,
(Tell me,)

Overall Meaning

It's important to note that these lyrics are not from a song called "Do You Love the Nazis." Instead, they are from a popular song from the 1960s called "Do You Love Me" by The Contours. The song is an upbeat dance track, and the lyrics describe a man who was rejected by his love interest because he couldn't dance, but now he's back and ready to show off his newfound skills.


In the context of the song, the lyrics are playful and meant to be taken literally as the singer's desire to show off his dancing skills to win back his love interest. However, it's possible to interpret the lyrics more broadly as a plea for acceptance and recognition from those who once rejected us.


The upbeat tempo and infectious lyrics of "Do You Love Me" made it a hit when it was released in 1962. The song has since been covered and referenced in various media, from movies like Dirty Dancing to TV shows like The Simpsons.
