Desert Luau
Unknown Hinson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

They can imitate you
But they can't duplicate you
Cause you got something special
That makes me wanna taste you
I want it all day long
I'm addicted like it's wrong
I want it all day long
I'm addicted like it's wrong
They can imitate you
But they can't duplicate you
Cause you got something special
That makes me wanna taste you
I want it all day long
I'm addicted like it's wrong
I want it all day l-o-o-ong
Im addicted like it's
Watcha gon watcha gon
do with that dessert?
. . .
Murder that, murder that
dancefloor, dancefloor
Murder that
Murder that
Murder that
Are you saving that dessert for me?
Cause if you are baby
You know you could work for me
The way you do it causing jealousy
But you don't ever gotta worry about the enemy
They try to do it like you
And they get mad cause they don't do it successfully
They try to copy your moves
But they don't never ever do it that tastefully
They can imitate you
But they can't duplicate you
Cause you got something special
That makes me wanna taste you
I want it all day long
I'm addicted like it's wrong
I want it all day long
I'm addicted like it's wrong
They can imitate you
But they can't duplicate you
Cause you got something special
That makes me wanna taste you
I want it all day long
I'm addicted like it's wrong
I want it all day long
I'm addicted like it's wrong
Whatcha gon
Whatcha gon do with that dessert

Murder that, murder that
Dancefloor, dancefloor

Whatcha gon
Whatcha gon do with that dessert
Murder that
Murder that
Murder that
Are you saving that dessert for me?
Cause if you are baby
You know you could work for me
The way you do it causing jealousy
But you don't ever gotta worry about the enemy
They try to do it like you
And they get mad cause they don't do it successfully
They try to copy your moves
But they don't never ever do it that tastefully
They can imitate you
But they can't duplicate you
Cause you got something special
That makes me wanna taste you
I want it all day long
All day long
All day long
I want it all day long
All day long

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Unknown Hinson's song "Desert Luau" revolve around the concept of addiction to something, which in this case happens to be a dessert. The singer is acknowledging that there may be imitators who try to copy the object of his addiction, but he emphasizes that they can never completely replicate what he has. He says that there is something special about the dessert that makes him want it all the time, even though he knows that it may be wrong to indulge in it constantly.

In the end, the song seems to celebrate the power and allure of this particular dessert, even as the singer acknowledges that his addiction to it may be problematic.

My grandpa died of Multiple Sclerosis. He spent the last year of his life with his legs fucked up and folded behind his back. I couldnt visit him most of the time because of covid. I hope he's up there at the desert luau. Thanks for posting this song. It makes me tear up
