Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Again and again and again
Do it again
Do it again
Again and again

It's a shame, it's a shame
It's a perfect shame
Creep under my door and we do it again, oh

It's easy and easy and easy and easy
And creepy and creepy and creepy, oh
Again, again, again, again

Again and again and again
Do it again
Do it again

Again and again and again
Do it again
Do it again

Again and again

Say my name, say my name, say my stupid name
It's stupid how we always seem to do it again, oh

You're so stupid and perfect
And stupid and perfect
I hate you, I want you
I hate you, I hate you, oh
Again, again, again, again

La, la, la
Again and again and again
Do it again
Do it again

Again and again and again
Do it again
Do it again





Again and again

Overall Meaning

At first glance, "Again & Again" by The Bird and The Bee appears to be a simple song with repetitive lyrics. It is easy to assume that the song is about an unhealthy and repetitive relationship as the lyrics "It's stupid how we always seem to do it again" suggests. However, looking deeper into the lyrics, it becomes clear that the song is about intimacy, addiction and compulsion.


The chorus "Again and again and again, do it again, do it again" is a clear reference to the idea of being addicted or compulsive to something. This could be referring to both a physical or emotional addiction, and the lyrics describing the addiction as a "shame" and "creepy" suggest that there is a feeling of guilt associated with it. Additionally, the repetition in the song could symbolize an endless cycle of addiction, where the individual keeps returning to the same harmful behavior repeatedly.


The line "Say my name, say my name, say my stupid name" could also be interpreted as a reference to the idea of sexual intimacy, as the repetition of the name suggests someone is being called out in pleasure or passion. However, the use of the term "stupid" suggests that there is a negative emotion attached to this. Overall, the song addresses the complicated nature of relationships, intimacy, and addiction with honesty and simplicity.

Everytime I hear this song it takes me back to when, I was a senior in high school. I was working for F.Y.E. Music Store in New York, And it was the fall of 2006 going into 2007.This song has a chill laid back vibe to it.I can listen to it over an over again not be bored with it.

@prestonrcasey

I was a sophomore in high school when I first heard this, and it takes me straight back to that time. Such a great time tbh

@MrJeremybowling

I remember this song from the Mac OS video, and I could never EVER find it and just randomly I tried today and found it again. Whatever happened to this band?

@prestonrcasey

@@MrJeremybowling They might still do shows, they're just a duo though. What was the Mac OS video you're speaking of?

@68skot
