The Mavis's Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(Oh, I want to melt with u)
(Oh, I want to melt with u)
This is safe sex, (Oh, I want to melt with u)
New Power Generation style
A funky little story about you and me (Oh, I want to melt with u)
Getting busy for awhile
To the bottom of your ankle chains
We gonna shake and shake and shake
Until we're both deranged
With endorphins
This is the ultimate rave
Oh, I want to melt with you
S to the S
Slow and slippery, groovy
If we bathe in each others hips
In other words, get close enough to stick
And I'll melt with you
And you can melt with me to
And we'll groove and groove until the earth moves
I want to melt with you, yeah
Don't look now, but there's a river of blood
you must have been a virgin
What am I guilty of? Oh no (oh no)
Are you afraid? Then take me to the next phase
Slow and slippery, groovy
If we bathe in each others hips
In other words, get close enough to stick (oh yeah)
And I'll melt with you (melting)
And you can melt with me to
And we'll groove and groove until the earth moves
I want 2 melt with you, yeah (Hit me)
I'm thinkin' about the quivery ocean (oh, I want to melt with u)
And drippin' all over your every motion
And thinkin' about the way that you kiss (I want to melt with u)
I'm thinkin' about some of this
And I'm thinkin' about some of that
And then my backbone slips (I want to melt with u)
And my lips just drip
And then the hips just whip and whip and,
(I want to melt with u)
(I want to melt with u)
Yeah, do that baby [Repeat: x2]
Yeah, do that baby, just like a dog (ooh, I want to melt with u)
Yeah, do that baby, just like a dog (ooh, I want to melt with u)
Yeah, do that baby, just like a dog
Slow and slippery, groovy
If we bathe in each other's hips(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)
I want to melt with you
And I'll melt with you
And you can melt with me to
And we'll groove and groove until the earth moves (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)
Melting, melting, melting
Slow and slippery, groovy
If we bathe in each others hips
In other words, get close enough to stick
And I'll melt with you
And you can melt with me to
And we'll groove and groove until the earth moves (Whip it)
The Mavis's song "Melt" is a sensual and energetic song about two individuals melting into each other through dancing and sexual intimacy. The lyrics are full of erotic imagery, such as "dripping all over your every motion" and "slow and slippery, groovy if we bathe in each other's hips." The song begins with the singer stating they have seven hours and they want to melt with the other person. They describe this as safe sex, new power generation style, referencing the band created by Prince in the 1990s. After that, they describe how they will shake until they are both deranged with endorphins and engage in the ultimate rave.
The chorus is the singer repeating their desire to melt with the other person, stating they want to groove until the earth moves. The bridge of the song changes the tone slightly as the singer ponders what they are guilty of, and the song ends with the two individuals dancing and melting into each other, as they whip and whip their hips.
Overall, the song is about losing oneself in the moment and connecting with another person through physical intimacy and dancing. The lyrics are filled with sexually charged language, but the tone of the song is optimistic and joyful.
