Spoonful of Sugar
Harmony in Adversity: Of Montreal's Spoonful of Sugar
Lyrics
Sometimes I'm feeling bad and then again I'm sad
Feeling a mix of emotions, including sadness.
But she makes me happy
Expressing that the person referred to (she) brings happiness.
Sometimes I'm feeling wrong and that I can't go on
Feeling incorrect or troubled and having doubts about continuing.
But she makes me understand and see
She helps in understanding and provides clarity.
She's a spoonful of sugar to me
Metaphorically referring to her as a source of joy and comfort.
So sweet, so sweet, so sweet to me
Reiterating the sweetness and positive impact she has.
She makes me feel so right, makes everything so bright
She brings a sense of correctness and brightness to life.
That's why I love her, you see
Expressing love for her based on the positive influence she has.
Best girl I ever had, she never made me mad
Highlighting her as the best romantic partner, causing no anger.
She's the right girl, wouldn't you agree?
Emphasizing that she is the right and suitable partner.
She's a spoonful of sugar to me
Reiterating the metaphorical representation of her as a positive force.
So sweet, so sweet, so sweet to me
Emphasizing the consistent sweetness and positive impact.
One thing I understand, I'll soon be a man
Acknowledging personal growth into adulthood.
And I'll want her for the rest of my life
Expressing a desire for a lifelong connection with her.
One thing we'll have to plan I'll soon want to have
Planning for a future together, including marriage.
Her hand and I'll want her to be my wife
Expressing the intention to have her as a life partner.
Sometimes I'm feeling bad and then again I'm sad
Repeating the cycle of emotions but highlighting her positive influence.
But she makes me happy
Reiterating that she brings happiness despite negative feelings.
Sometimes I'm feeling wrong and that I can't go on
Feeling wrong or distressed, but finding understanding and clarity through her.
But she makes me understand and see
She continues to provide understanding and insight in challenging times.
