LAX
Vulfpeck Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I love my baby
I love my baby

Wheels up and I'm on my way
Been three weeks since I've seen my baby
Send a text as we're touching down
But she's already circlin' 'round on the ground
Waiting, she's waiting just for me

I won't forget it
I won't forget it, get it, get it
You won't regret it
I won't forget this, baby, hey

I love my baby, she's the best
She picks me up at LAX
What gets me through the longest flight
(From Cape Town through Dubai)
My baby, baby, she's the best
She keeps me cool when I get stressed
Can't wait to hold my honey pie
(I can't wait to kiss and hug her)

Won't be long now, I'm on my way (I'll be)
All over you, like I'm TSA (TSA)
Brought you something back from a distant land
She brought fajitas from a taco stand, understand
It's waiting, it's waiting just for me

I won't forget it
I won't forget it, get it, get it (no, I won't forget it)
You won't regret it
I won't forget this, baby, hey

I love my baby, she's the best
She picks me up at LAX
What gets me through the longest flight
(From Cape Town through Dubai)
My baby, baby, she's the best
She keeps me cool when I get stressed
I'm gonna make it up tonight
(I can't wait to kiss and hug her)

Hey baby, got my bags
Headed out to the street
Now you saved my life
It means everything

I love my baby, she's the best
She picks me up at LAX
I love my baby, she's the best
She picks me up at LAX
I love my baby, she's the best
She picks me up at LAX
I love my baby, she's the best
She picks me up at LAX

I love my baby, she's the best (picks me up)
She picks me up at LAX
I love my baby, she's the best (picks me up)
She picks me up at LAX
I love my baby, she's the best (picks me up)
She picks me up at LAX




I love my baby, she's the best
She picks me up at LAX

Non-Californian residents may think this is a song about how much he loves his baby, but it's actually about how s*** an airport LAX is that you should appreciate anyone willing to pick you up from there.

@fedemolina2714

@macaron3141592653
