Billie Eilish, Lunch: the song lyrics & their meaning

Posted by

Lunch is the unreleased song by Billie Eilish, with a meaning that hooked everyone: let’s explore the available lyrics.

Billie Eilish has not released Lunch yet, but the song has already triggered a buzz all over the internet. Fans could only listen to the short snippet she played at Coachella 2024; we will probably have to wait for her new album, Hit Me Hard And Soft (set for release in May 2024) before hearing it in its full version. Still, we already have enough elements to know it will be one of the most discussed tracks of the record: the lyrics are pretty explicit and hide a meaning that was also explained by the singer. Let’s discover everything in this article: you’ll also have the available lyrics and streaming at the end.

Lunch: the meaning behind the lyrics

Lunch is a song about the singer’s awareness of her sexuality: in the lyrics, Billie Eilish expresses her homosexuality with no filters, explicitly showing how she loves women. The lyrics are a clear reference to the singer’s lust and physical desire for the girl she likes.

Some of the lyrics you can hear in Lunch have already become famous for their erotic content:

I could eat that girl for lunch
And she dances on my tongue
Tastes like she might be the one

Yes, Billie Eilish is definitely talking about using her mouth: eating that girl is precisely what you were wondering. You can feel the happiness and excitement for her new dimension. It’s like Billie Eilish has recently discovered her sexuality, and now she embraces it fully. When you love something, you say it clearly, right?

This matches what she said in this interview with Rolling Stone on April 24th:

“That song was actually part of what helped me become who I am, to be real. I wrote some of it before even doing anything with a girl, and then wrote the rest after. I’ve been in love with girls for my whole life, but I just didn’t understand — until, last year, I realized I wanted my face in a vagina.”

Pretty straightforward, isn’t it?

Fans are now waiting for the full lyrics, which will be available as soon as the new album is out. More details will come, and we will have fun discovering them together, but things are already pretty clear: Billie Eilish is ready to ride her sexuality with all parts of herself, and with its lyrics, Lunch celebrates a new phase of her life.

Billie Eilish - Lunch (Coachella 2024) unreleased song

The full lyrics are not yet available, but here is what we can hear from Billie Eilish performing Lunch at Coachella 2024:

I could eat that girl for lunch
And she dances on my tongue
Tastes like she might be the one
And I can never get enough
I could buy her so much stuff
It’s a craving, not a crush

Call me when you’re there
Said, “I brought you something rare”
And I left it under “Claire”
So now she’s coming up the stairs
So I’m pulling up a chair
And I’m putting up my hair
