I Get a Kick Out of You
Intoxicating Fascination: Unveiling the Allure Beyond Libations
Lyrics
My story is much to sad to be told
Expressing the sorrow of the narrator's life story, suggesting it's too painful to share openly.
But practically everything leaves me totally cold
Most things don't evoke strong emotions in the narrator.
The only exception I know is the case
An exception is noted, implying a specific circumstance or person that brings warmth or joy.
When I'm out on a quiet spree, fighting vainly the old ennui
Describing a moment of attempting to combat boredom or dissatisfaction by going out on a quiet adventure.
And I suddenly turn and see your fabulous face
The turning point when the narrator sees the face of someone special, implying this person brings excitement.
I get no kick from champagne
Champagne doesn't bring pleasure or excitement.
Mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all

So tell me why should it be true
Raising a question about why the narrator finds joy in a seemingly unconventional source.
That I get a kick out of you

Some get a kick from cocaine
Contrasting with substance-induced kicks, acknowledging the lack of interest in cocaine.
I'm sure that if I took even one sniff
Speculating that even a small amount of cocaine would not be enjoyable for the narrator.
That would bore me terrifically too
Emphasizing that substance-induced pleasure would also be boring for the narrator.
But I get a kick out of you

I get a kick every time I see you standing there before me
Expressing the thrill the narrator experiences each time they see the person they are infatuated with.
I get a kick though it's clear to me, you obviously don't adore me
Acknowledging that, despite the thrill, the person the narrator admires may not reciprocate their feelings.
I get no kick in a plane, flying too high with some guy in the sky
Not finding excitement in mundane activities like flying in a plane with someone.
Is my idea of nothing to do, yet I get a kick out of you
Despite the lack of excitement in certain activities, the narrator still finds joy in the presence of the person they adore.
I get a kick every time I see you standing there before me

I get a kick though it's clear to me, you obviously don't adore me

I get a kick out of you
Reaffirming the narrator's pleasure derived from the person they are infatuated with.
