Pasta never makes you gain weight
You said it so confidently
But what’s this now, this situation in the mirror
Shouldn’t we find out who’s responsible?

Where did you even learn this?
Just eating what you make, I’m like this
Every night I wait for you to come
But I won’t show it

There was a time I didn’t even know what linguine was
Just like I didn’t know love
Even just eating ramen with you would be thrilling
Don’t laugh, I’ll hold it in today

Where did you learn this kind of love

What menu will you use to hold me today?
It’s too delicious to pretend otherwise
I can’t think of a way to refuse you
But I won’t show it

🎵 Song Meaning & Interpretation

The lyrics playfully compare falling in love to discovering irresistible food, as the narrator finds herself increasingly unable to resist either the meals or the person making them. What begins with teasing complaints about pasta and weight gradually reveals a deeper affection: even the simplest ramen would feel exciting if shared together. Although she repeatedly insists that she will hold back and hide how much she enjoys it, every new flavor only draws her closer. Food becomes a charming metaphor for growing affection, capturing the delicious helplessness of becoming deeply smitten.
