You think about it
Too much, too much
Too much, too much
You think about it
Too much, too much
So let's do the usual
I'll take the worry from your face
Nights in LA
I like the way you call me baby
But I can't tell either way
If you love me, like me, hate me
'Cause you don't say what you need
I can't read your mind
I've tried everything
We're still falling behind
She don't like to show the things that she don't like to say
And she don't like to say the things she's thinking
Too much, too much
You think about it
Too much, too much
Too much, too much
You think about it
Too much, too much
So let's do the usual
I'll take the worry from your face
If you feel unusual then let's get to the bottom of it
Quit trying to save me
From the things you keep so deep
Do you see me complainin'?
That's not me, that's not me
If you give me some time
I'll show you that I don't waste it
When you tell me you're mine, you're really mine
I die inside
She don't like to show the things that she don't like to say
And she don't like to say the things she's thinking
Too much, too much
You think about it
Too much, too much
Too much, too much
You think about it
Too much, too much
So let's do the usual
I'll take the worry from your face
If you feel unusual then let's get to the bottom of it
In "Strawberry Blonde," Rence sings about the difficulties of communication and understanding in relationships. The chorus repeats "Too much, too much, you think about it" and "let's do the usual, I'll take the worry from your face, If you feel unusual then let's get to the bottom of it." This suggests that the singer is trying to help their partner cope with anxieties and overthinking. In the next verse, Rence shares the ambiguity of the singer's relationship in Los Angeles. He likes how his partner calls him baby, but he can't tell if he is loved, liked or hated because his partner never says what they need. The singer repeatedly tries to understand his partner's needs, but they remain unknown despite his best efforts.
The line "She don't like to show the things that she don't like to say and she don't like to say the things she's thinking" portrays the persona's struggle to decode their partner's behavior. Rence shares the singer's frustration when he sings "Quit trying to save me from the things you keep so deep. Do you see me complainin'?" This line suggests that the singer feels helpless because his partner doesn't express their emotions or behaviors honestly. Rence acknowledges that relationships do not come without difficulties and to work through them; it is essential to communicate and empathize with each other.
