Sugar Lyrics

Lyric discussion by seeing 

Cover art for Sugar lyrics by Maroon 5

In the literal sense, the line "I want that red velvet/I want that sugar sweet" makes it sound like that Adam Levine is singing about cake. In the figurative sense, it sounds like he's singing about having sex with a woman who is on her period.

My Interpretation

@seeing could the red velvet perhaps be red pubic hairs? Wanting the sugar sweet taste at the end of that??

I think you all are being too literal here.

He's talking about "red" for the same reason that women wear red lipstick.

It's the color of sexual excitement.
