Voodoo
Yes Sir Noceur Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No will to stop your voodoo ways
This is a dream and you've locked me inside
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
No
No
I danced with you and your witchy ways
I followed you through your voodoo maze
I danced with you and your witchy ways
I followed you through your voodoo maze
What if my life was only a dream
And all these things were not as they seem
I danced with you and your witchy ways
I followed you through your voodoo maze
And all these things were not as they seem
The lyrics of "Voodoo" by Yes Sir Noceur suggest a situation of being trapped in a "garden of haze" by an alluring and manipulative person who practices voodoo. The singer seems to have been drawn to this person's "witchy ways" and engaged in a dance and followed them through a "voodoo maze". However, as the lyrics repeat, "all these things were not as they seem." The singer seems to be questioning the reality of their situation, wondering if their life is merely a dream. The repetition of "No" also suggests that the singer is resisting this person's control, even as they feel trapped.
The imagery of the lyrics suggests a theme of seduction and illusion, with the garden of haze and voodoo maze representing the ways in which this person has lured the singer into their world. The use of the word "witchy" also suggests a stereotype of witchcraft as something dangerous and alluring, with the power to manipulate others. The repetition of the lyrics suggests a cyclical pattern, as though the singer is trapped in a loop of being drawn in by this person and then feeling trapped and questioning their reality.
