Handlebars Lyrics
[Chorus: JENNIE]
I trip and fall in love
Just like a Tuesday drunk
I always go all in, all in, all in
Over the handlebars
Hitting the ground so hard
If I’m alone, fallin’, fallin’, fallin’
We ain’t gotta talk about it
[Verse 1: JENNIE]
Mercy
Why is it love is never kind to me?
I heard that fools rush in and, yeah, that’s me
It burns me time and time again
So why am I still fixing for this frying pan, thinkin’
[Pre-Chorus: Dua Lipa, JENNIE & Both]
I wonder what you’re doing for tonight and forever (Oh-oh)
I could be the rest of your life or whatever
My lips and your lips, we could press them together (‘Gether, ‘gether, ‘gether)
I don’t ever think twice, and, baby, that’s why
[Chorus: JENNIE & Dua Lipa]
I trip and fall in love
Just like a Tuesday drunk
I always go all in, all in, all in
Over the handlebars
Hitting the ground so hard
If I’m alone, fallin’, fallin’, fallin’
[Verse 2: Dua Lipa]
Another round, another drink
I try to stop, but I can’t think
About anything else but you (But you)
And I’m a little too buzzed on your love to play it cute
A single kiss, I lost my mind for seven days and seven nights
Can’t eat, sleep, baby, it’s true (It’s true)
Tryna bite my lip, I’m probably gonna slip
And say some crazy shit to you
[Pre-Chorus: JENNIE & Dua Lipa]
I wonder what you’re doing for tonight and forever (Oh-oh)
I don’t ever think twice, and maybe that’s why
[Chorus: JENNIE & Dua Lipa, JENNIE, Dua Lipa]
I trip and fall in love
Just like a Tuesday drunk
I always go all in, all in (All in, all in), all in
Over the handlebars
Hitting the ground so hard
If I’m alone, fallin’, fallin’, fallin’ (Fallin’, yeah)
[Outro: Dua Lipa & JENNIE]
We ain’t gotta talk about it
Na-na-na-na-na-na, na (Yeah)
We ain’t gotta talk about it
Na-na-na-na-na-na, na
We ain’t gotta talk about it
Handlebars Meaning
[Chorus: JENNIE]
The chorus introduces the central metaphor of the song—falling in love is compared to losing control and crashing “over the handlebars.” JENNIE portrays love as something she rushes into, much like a reckless, intoxicated fall. The repetition of “all in” emphasizes her tendency to give everything to love without hesitation, even when it leads to pain. Despite the inevitable impact, she accepts it as part of the experience, choosing to surrender rather than hesitate.
[Verse 1: JENNIE]
JENNIE reflects on love’s unkind nature, acknowledging how she continuously gets burned by its intensity. The reference to “fools rush in” highlights her self-awareness—she knows she’s making impulsive choices, yet she can’t resist. The imagery of the “frying pan” suggests she willingly returns to the same cycle of heartbreak, driven by an unshakable desire for connection.
[Pre-Chorus: Dua Lipa, JENNIE & Both]
The pre-chorus brings a sense of urgency and longing. Dua Lipa and JENNIE question whether their love interest sees a future with them, yet they don’t overthink it. The repetition of “’gether, ‘gether, ‘gether” mimics the idea of lips pressing together in a passionate moment. They acknowledge their impulsiveness but embrace it, seeing it as part of their nature.
[Chorus: JENNIE & Dua Lipa]
With Dua Lipa joining in, the chorus gains a new layer of depth. Their harmonized vocals enhance the feeling of reckless surrender, reinforcing the theme of uncontrollable love. The imagery of falling remains consistent, symbolizing how easily they succumb to emotions without hesitation.
[Verse 2: Dua Lipa]
Dua Lipa takes over, narrating the intoxication of love through the metaphor of drinking. She’s consumed by thoughts of the person she desires, unable to focus on anything else. Her confession that she’s “too buzzed on love” to act rationally reveals how deeply infatuated she is. She acknowledges the risk of saying something irrational, highlighting how love strips away control.
[Pre-Chorus: JENNIE & Dua Lipa]
This shorter pre-chorus reinforces their impulsivity. The phrase “tonight and forever” suggests a fleeting moment that feels infinite, showing how love warps time and logic. The repetition of not thinking twice emphasizes their readiness to jump in, no matter the consequences.
[Chorus: JENNIE & Dua Lipa, JENNIE, Dua Lipa]
The final chorus carries a sense of inevitability. Even after acknowledging love’s pitfalls, they still find themselves trapped in the same cycle. The mix of voices strengthens the song’s emotional weight, as both artists fully embrace the highs and lows of love.
[Outro: Dua Lipa & JENNIE]
The outro provides a quiet acceptance of their recklessness. The phrase “We ain’t gotta talk about it” suggests that overanalyzing their emotions is pointless—they’ve already made their choice. The repeated “na-na-na” adds a hypnotic, almost resigned feeling, closing the song on a note of bittersweet surrender.
