Scientist
Twice • From “Formula Of Love: O+T=˂3”
What is the meaning of Scientist Lyrics from Formula Of Love: O+T=˂3?
The performers tell their love interest to stop analyzing every detail. A key line translates to, ‘Love isn’t a science, you don’t need a license.’ The lyrics writer uses imagery like Einstein and Frankenstein to contrast cold theory with warm, clumsy action.
