Lyrics
Love is like a (bomb)
Love is compared to a powerful and explosive force (like a bomb).
(Bomb)

(Bomb)
-Love is like a (bomb)
-(I'm hot)
Expression of feeling physically heated or passionate.
Love is like a bomb baby c'mon get it on
An encouragement to embrace love's explosiveness and excitement.
Livin' like a lover with a radar phone
Living life passionately and romantically, being attentive and ready.
Lookin' like a tramp, like a video vamp
Having an appearance reminiscent of a provocative figure often seen in music videos.
Demolition woman, can I be your man? (Your man)
Asking for permission to be the significant other or partner.
Razzle 'n' a dazzle 'n' a flash a little light
Describing flashy and attention-grabbing actions with lights.
Television lover, baby, go all night
Describing someone who enjoys watching television for extended periods, especially late into the night.
Sometime, anytime, sugar me sweet
Requesting to be treated affectionately and gently, despite external appearances.
Little miss ah innocent sugar me, yeah, yeah
-So c'mon, take a bottle, shake it up
Encouragement to create excitement and energy.
Break the bubble, break it up
-Pour some sugar on me
Metaphorically asking for affection and attention (sugar) to be showered on the speaker, indicating desire and passion.
Ooh in the name of love
-Pour some sugar on me
-C'mon fire me up
-Pour your sugar on me
-Ooh I can't get enough
-I'm hot, sticky sweet
-From my head to my feet, yeah
-Listen, red light, yellow light, green-a-light go
Describing a dynamic and eccentric woman who enjoys being the center of attention and seeks love.
Crazy little woman in a one man show
-Mirror queen, mannequin, rhythm of love
-Sweet dream, saccharine, loosen up (loosen up) loosen up
-You gotta squeeze a little, tease a little please a little more
Asking for a little more affection and teasing before fully engaging in a romantic encounter.
Easy operator come a knockin' on my door
-Sometime, anytime, sugar me sweet
Requesting additional affection and sweetness.
Little miss innocent sugar me, yeah, yeah
