The Romanovs Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To turn me on
I just need your body baby
From dusk till dawn
You don't need experience
To turn me out
You just leave it all up to me
I'm gonna show you what it's all about
You don't have to be rich
To be my girl
You don't have to be cool
To rule my world
Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your
Kiss,
Oh oh
You got to not talk dirty, baby
If you want to impress me
You can't be to flirty, mama
I know how to undress me, yeah
I want to be your fantasy
Maybe you could be mine
You just leave it all up to me
We could have a good time
Don't have to be rich
To be my girl
Don't have to be cool
To rule my world
Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your
Kiss
Yes, oh oh oh
Ah
I think I want to dance, uhh, ooohh
Gotta, gotta, oh
Little girl Wendy's parade
Gotta, gotta, gotta
Women not girls rule my world
I said they rule my world
Act your age, mama (not your shoe size)
Not your shoe size
Maybe we could do the twirl
You don't have to watch Dynasty
To have an attitude
You just leave it all up to me
My love will be your food
Yeah
You don't have to be rich
To be my girl
You don't have to be cool
To rule my world
Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your
Kiss
The Romanovs's song Kiss is a seductive and playful tune which speaks about the nature of attraction and sexuality. The opening lines hint that the focus is on physical attraction as the singer points out that one doesn't have to be physically beautiful to turn him on. He just needs the body of the person he desires. The song talks about the fact that experience is not important in winning his desire, but that he's willing to show his lover how it's done.
The chorus emphasises on the need for his lover's kiss, as an expression of their affection, and the fact that it doesn't matter what their background is, or how rich they are, what matters is their intimacy. The second verse continues in the same tone, with the singer instructing his desired partner to not talk dirty or be too flirtatious, as he knows how to undress them.
The bridge of the song makes a playful request to dance before ending on a note of celebration for the fact that the love in question breaks down boundaries, breaking away from societal norms, with the lines 'Women not girls rule my world, act your age, mama (not your shoe size)'.
Overall, the song is about the importance of the physical connection between lovers and emphasizes on the fact that love and attraction can transcend social norms.
