All Over
The Monochrome Set Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tiny angels on her body
Little voices in her head
When the sun is up
She flies around in a supercar
When the moon is full
She's down to earth like a falling star

I feel so ill, don't want you to touch me, touch me
I feel so sick, I'd better take another now it's
All over, all over

Everyone is Mr. Sleepy
Everything is deeply red
When the sun is up
She slips around like a pool of oil
When the moon is full
She's cleaning up little bits of foil.

I feel so good, don't want it to stop now, stop now
I feel so fine and I'd better take another now it's
All over, all over

Tiny cells go every minute
Little days go off the end
When the sun is up
She spins around like a racing wheel
When the moon is hill
She eats a little kitten meal

I feel so ill, don't want you to hate me, hate me




I feel so nothing and I'd rather take another now it's
All over, all over

Overall Meaning

The Monochrome Set’s song “All Over” is a surreal exploration of the human psyche, utilizing metaphors and vivid imagery to convey the singer’s experience. The song’s opening lines describe “tiny angels on her body” and “little voices in her head,” suggesting the presence of both innocence and inner turmoil. When the sun is up, “she flies around in a supercar,” representing a free and wild spirit, but when the moon is full, “she’s down to earth like a falling star” and “cleaning up little bits of foil,” suggesting a descent into mundanity and perhaps drug addiction.


The mood of the song shifts as the chorus begins, with the singer expressing physical illness and a need to take another dose of something to feel better. The chorus is repeated twice, adding to its importance in the song’s meaning. In the second verse, the imagery is even more surreal, with everything appearing as “deeply red” and the woman slipping around “like a pool of oil.” The singer feels good and doesn’t want it to stop, but also feels nothing and would rather take another dose, as it’s “all over.”


Through its use of vivid, sometimes bizarre imagery, “All Over” explores themes of both freedom and confinement, addiction and pain. It provides a somewhat abstract exploration of the complexities of human emotion, urging the listener to consider the various facets of their own psyche.
