Over And Over Lyrics
Over and over
Laid back,
Laid back,
Laid back we'll give you play back.
Laid back,
Laid back,
Laid back I'll give you play back.
Over and over and over and over and over,
Like a monkey with a miniature cymbal,
The joy of repetition really is in you.
Under and under and under and under and under,
A spell of repetition really is on you,
And when it feels this way I really am with you.
Laid back,
Laid back,
Laid back We'll give you play back.
Over and over and over and over and over,
Like a monkey with a miniature cymbal,
The joy of repetition really is in you,
Under and under and under and under and under,
A spell of repetition really is on you,
And when you look this way I really am with you.

I started thinking I knew what I had to do (hell you)
I got to thinking and I knew just what to do (hell you)
I started thinking I knew what I had to do (hell you hell you hell you)
Over and over and over and over and over,
Like a monkey with a miniature cymbal,
The joy of repetition really is in you,
Under and under and under and under and under,
A spell of repetition really is on you,
And when you look this way I really am with you.

This song is an attack on critics who slated Hot Chip as "repetitive" and "boring" on the release of their first album.
Isn't it quite obvious this song is about sex, rather than some attack on music critics? Since most of the songs on the album seem to be about the end of a relationship and the hard work of getting back on one´s feet sfter a breakup, this one sticks out a bit, focusing on the immediate physical pleasures of sex. "When I feel this way I really am with you", I think is a way of saying that sex can be a means to experiencing a deep sense of closeness between two people, but at the same time it's so primal and in a way stupid, like a monkey with a miniature cymbal...
i defdef thought it was about sex which made it all pretty and sexy and i made me like it even more. but i think it could be a jab at critics' comments and i think it's cool that it can be interpreted in more than one way.
haha i just love this song.

"like a monkey with a miniature cymbal" Best simile EVER.
dsklf;jdskl;fj i can't imagine how anyone could not love the beat to this song. geez
it is very good. only song of theirs i like at the moment though!
It's definitely "Spell of repetition."
I respectfully disagree with the above comment. Hot Chip is the shit! I love the repitetion of the song, and it's totally self-aware. Plus the monkey imagery is great. The spelling bee breakdown at the end of the song makes me wish I could get into spelling bees, their the hottest thing on earth.
