After gaining wide recognition across the 1600 block of North Avenue for their atmospheric, wave bashing, pop ditties, the Lavellas revealed their secret song writing process which involves eating fog, and causing self-inflicted damage to the retinas, which is most easily done by staring into the sun for long periods of time, but can also be achieved (at night) with lasers. The music is recommended for those who like rainy days and picnics in the sky.

Seduction
The Lavellas Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'll make you sleep late tonight
And I'll let you see through the world.
Sometimes seduction plays a key role in my life
Sometimes seduction is the only way to go
All these things remind me of your word,
All these things can blind me, don't touch her.

Sometimes you spin me around

In circles
So tell me what's your name
Let's start this all over

You are the imposter of my life
Moloch wants to bury you
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust

It's funny how these things work out.
Can you fathom this?

Overall Meaning

The Lavellas's song Seduction is a poetic expression of the seductive power and allure of love. The song suggests that the act of seduction is not just a physical or sexual one, but rather a complex and nuanced way of drawing someone into your world. The opening lines "I'll make you sleep late tonight, and I'll let you see through the world" create an image of the singer as a seductive and mysterious force, promising to take the listener on a journey that transcends the everyday.

The chorus of the song carries this theme forward, emphasizing the power of seduction to transform and change the way we see ourselves and the world around us. The lines "Sometimes seduction plays a key role in my life, Sometimes seduction is the only way to go" suggest that seduction is both a tool and a way of life for the singer, a means of exploring the complexities of human desire and connection. The use of repetition in the chorus, "All these things remind me of your word, all these things can blind me, don't touch her," creates a sense of urgency and danger surrounding the act of seduction, emphasizing the risks and rewards involved.

The second verse of the song continues the theme of seduction as a transformative force, with the lines "Sometimes you spin me around in circles, so tell me what's your name, let's start this all over." Here, the act of seduction is portrayed as a dizzying, disorienting experience, one that can leave the singer lost and unsure of themselves. The final lines of the song, "You are the imposter of my life, Moloch wants to bury you, ashes to ashes, dust to dust, it's funny how these things work out, can you fathom this?" create a sense of finality and closure, emphasizing the transformative power of love and the inevitable, cyclical nature of life.
