Pomegranate
The Neptunes deadmau5 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ay, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ah, yeah
Sparkle for me
Sparkle for me
Sparkle for me

It's shining like three seeds of pomegranates in my hands
It's just us that's on this beach and all this sand
All of this water
I know but damn
I know we ain't supposed to touch it
We only live once ma'am (sparkle for me)
You said give it to me, give it to me, give it to me
Then said take it, take it, take it
I said did we do this really?
Shouldn't we have waited? Waited?
You're making faces, probably so am I
We're in the ocean
Waves are rolling in your eyes

Pulse is high, the heartbeats
We're being called to the other side, girl
Lost in the vibe, we can't sleep
Our clothes off
Feels so good inside, girl
(Sparkle for me)

It's been oh, so long
Since we've been away from home (sparkle for me)
All the fucks, every last one gone
Blissfully, knowing this shit wrong (sparkle for me)
It's been oh, so long
Since we've been away from home (sparkle for me)
All the fucks, every last one gone
Blissfully, knowing this shit wrong (sparkle for me)

What's the reason why we should do this tonight?
Spend the night, spend the night
Spend the night, spend the night (sparkle for me)
So much you won't see without open eyes
'Cause closed eyes, is closed sight
And closed mind, is closed vibe (sparkle for me)
Yeah, new feelings it's bringing in
What's this tone I'm singing in? (Sparkle for me)
Your eyes are twinkling
My limbs are tingling (sparkle for me)
You are my synonym
You're my best friend in the world (sparkle for me)
All this adrenaline (yeah, yeah)
Melting like M&M's

Pulse is high, the heartbeats
We're being called to the other side, girl
Lost in the vibe, we can't sleep
Our clothes off
Feels so good inside, girl

It's been oh, so long
Since we've been away from home (sparkle for me)
All the fucks, every last one gone
Blissfully, knowing this shit wrong (sparkle for me)
It's been oh, so long
Since we've been away from home (sparkle for me)
All the fucks, every last one gone
Blissfully, knowing this shit wrong (sparkle for me)

Sparkle for me
Sparkle for me




Sparkle for me
Sparkle for me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to deadmau5's song Pomegranate are imbued with a sense of recklessness; the kind that comes from a desire to indulge in something forbidden. The reference to pomegranates in the first verse stems from the fruit's association with temptation and the consequences that follow from giving into it. The song's focus is on the tension between the pleasure of the moment and the knowledge that it is wrong. The line "We only live once, ma'am" is a nod to the popular phrase "YOLO (You Only Live Once)" that emphasizes the importance of living life to the fullest and taking risks for the sake of experience.


The chorus of the song reinforces the idea that the singer is fully aware of the nature of their actions, yet still chooses to give in to the temptation. The repeated phrase "sparkle for me" emphasizes the need for the moment to be elevated to something special and worthy of nostalgic memories later on. The mention of how it has been a long time since the singers have been away from home suggests that they are trying to escape their mundane lives and diverge from their usual routine by indulging in this moment.


The second verse of the song shows the tension growing in the singers' hearts as they face the consequences of their actions. The lines "All the f**** every last one gone" suggests that they have given in to pleasure to such a degree that all notions of morality or guilt have evaporated. The reference to melting like M&M's could be interpreted as a metaphor for succumbing to the sweet temptation, satisfying our cravings and indulging in pleasure.


Overall, the lyrics to Pomegranate are a poignant expression of the human tendency to indulge in something forbidden, knowing that the repercussions can be destructive. The song's melody captures the bittersweet thrill of the moment, the sense of danger and the allure of temptation.
