The Kills – DNA Lyrics 14 years ago
The song is about a lost love and the determination of both people to not be bummed out by its loss. With fantastic vagueness I might add.

When it came to pass
Lonely passed me by
(alluding to the theme of lost love)


Fate with a single blow
Has custard pied me now
(custard pied is a bit of a fill in
verb. basically it just says fate
has screwed me over)


True I had my chance
True true true I had those wild charms for you
And oh oh oh oh oh my fire burned them out
(missed out on love, missed her chance)

But we will not be moved by it
We will not be moved by it.
(but we're not going to let it
make us feel down)

Your mind would never ache
When you were young and sound
(perhaps citing a reason for missing out
on the chance. chalking it up to being
young and dumb)

The way your heart aches now
Your fevers send them all to round
(now old and wise, is sort of upset by this loss)

Love love love till you've got enough
Dance dance dance if you've got no love around you
Love love love till you've got enough
Dance dance dance till there's no one left to hound you
(this is basically saying that instead of being bummed out,
this is what they're going to do. Love and Dance.)


We will not be moved by it
We will not be moved by it
(stating firmly that they will not be
moved by anything in the past)

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Love love love till you've got enough
Dance dance dance if you've got no love around you
Love love love till you've got enough
Dance dance dance till there's no one left to hound you

We will not be moved by it
We will not be moved by it
We will not be moved by it
We will not be moved by it
