Navigating Love's Maze: Edith Frost's 'Wonder Wonder' Meaning
Lyrics
I don't know what to do about you
I am uncertain about how to handle the situation involving you.
I don't know what to do about you
Reiteration of the uncertainty and inner conflict regarding the relationship.
I learned a lot of rules from the Bible baby
I have gained insights and principles from the Bible, but I'm still perplexed.
But I wonder wonder what I should do
Expressing curiosity or doubt about the appropriate course of action.
I wonder wonder what I should do
Reiteration of the uncertainty and questioning about the right choice.
I don't know why I'm stayin' with you
Expressing uncertainty about the reasons for staying in the relationship.
If everything they're sayin' is true
Questioning the validity of information and contemplating the truth.
I heard about you lyin' to your mama, baby
Awareness of dishonesty directed towards someone important.
And I wonder wonder what I should do
Reiteration of wondering about the appropriate action in response.
I wonder wonder what I should do
Continued uncertainty and contemplation of the right choice.
Words don't hardly even matter
Highlighting the insignificance of words when the mind is unsatisfied.
When nothin' seems to satisfy your mind
Emphasizing the dissatisfaction and the challenge of finding trust.
Trust is ready to find
Noting that trust is elusive or difficult to establish.
Do you think you can make it to tomorrow
Questioning the ability to endure and face the challenges ahead.
When everything you're sayin' is true
Conditionally acknowledging that if everything said is true, a decision can be made.
Then I'll know what to do about you
Expressing a hope to know the appropriate action when truth is evident.
As always my wanderin' mind
Acknowledging a wandering mind that leads to introspection.
Takes me right down
Describing the wandering mind guiding towards a deeper, introspective state.
To the bottom of the basement
Referring to a metaphorical descent into a challenging or difficult situation.
When everything you're sayin' is true
Reiteration of the condition for knowing what to do if everything said is true.
Then I'll know what to do about you
Reaffirming the desire to know the right action when truth is evident.
Whenever you decide what you're wantin' baby
Contemplating the uncertainty until a decision is made by the other person.
Then I wonder wonder what I should do
Expressing wonder about the appropriate action once a decision is reached.
I wonder wonder what I should do
Reiteration of the uncertainty and questioning about the right choice.
Plans don't hardly even matter
Stating that plans become insignificant when the mind is disturbed.
When everybody's messin' with your mind
