Lollipop
The Treblemakers Lyrics

Hey yo, Treble
The group is introducing itself.

Sucking too hard on your lollipop
If you indulge in something too much, it will have negative consequences.

Oh, love's gonna get you down
If you give in to love too easily, it may lead to heartbreak.

I went walking with my momma one day
Narrator's recollection of an experience with his mother.

When she warned me what people say
The mother gave advice based on what others have experienced.

Live your life until love is found
Enjoy life without the burden of love until it is found.

Oh loves gonna get you down
Again, reiterating the point that too much love too soon is not ideal.

Take a look at the girl next door
The artist is observing someone nearby.

She's a player and a downright bore
The girl is somebody who goes through the motions, but is not interesting.

Jesus loves her but she wants more
The girl is still searching for something more despite having supposed religious guidance.

Oh, bad girls get you down
People who are not trustworthy or sincere can have a negative impact on your life.

Sing it!
Encouragement to sing along.

Say love, say love, say love
Emphasis on the word 'love.'

Mama told me what I should know
More recollections of life lessons given by the singer's mother.

Too much candy gonna rot your soul
Indulgences in general can have damaging long-term effects.

If she loves you let her go
If someone truly loves you, they will let you go and live your life without them if it's for the best.

Cause love only gets you down
Reiteration that love can have negative consequences if not approached carefully.

Take a look at a boy like me
The singer is reflecting on his own experiences.

Never stood on my own two feet
The singer has not had a solid sense of independence, possibly due to focusing too much on love.

Now I'm blue as I can be
The consequences of not handling love responsibly have had negative impacts on the artist's life.

Sing it!
Encouragement to keep singing along.

Someone, drop some bass
Instructions for a music break.

Love, love, say love love
Again, emphasizing love.

Now we need some baritone
Instructions for another musical variation.

Now give me some tenor
Still adjusting the music arrangement.

Now give me some love love love love
Instructions to finish with a repeat of the word 'love.'

Gonna get you down down down
Once more repeating that love can lead to negative consequences.

I'm talking about lolii, lolii, lolii, lollipop
Reintroduction of the song's main motif.

Sucking, sucking, sucking, sucking, sucking
Emphasis on the concept of indulgences.

I said love's gonna get you down
Final repetition that love can be harmful if not handled properly.
