Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

I think I did it again
I made you believe we're more than just friends
Oh baby
It might seem like a crush
But it doesn't mean that I'm serious
'Cause to lose all my senses
That is just so typically me
Oh baby, baby

Oops, I did it again
I played with your heart, got lost in the game
Oh baby, baby
Oops, you think I'm in love
That I'm sent from above
I'm not that innocent

You see my problem is this
I'm dreaming away
Wishing that heroes, they truly exist
I cry, watching the days
Can't you see I'm a fool in so many ways
But to lose all my senses
That is just so typically me
Oh baby, oh

Oops, I did it again
I played with your heart, got lost in the game
Oh baby, baby
Oops, you think I'm in love
That I'm sent from above
I'm not that innocent

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

All aboard
Britney, before you go, there's something I want you to have
Oh, it's beautiful, but wait a minute, isn't this?
Yeah, yes it is
But I thought the old lady dropped it into the ocean in the end
Well baby, I went down and got it for you
Aww, you shouldn't have

Oops, I did it again to your heart
Got lost in this game, oh baby
Oops, you think that I'm sent from above
I'm not that innocent

Oops, I did it again
I played with your heart, got lost in the game
Oh baby, baby
Oops, you think I'm in love
That I'm sent from above
I'm not that innocent

Oops, I did it again
I played with your heart, got lost in the game
Oh baby, baby
Oops, you think I'm in love




That I'm sent from above
I'm not that innocent

Overall Meaning

The song "Oops!...I Did It Again" by Britney Spears is a playful and fun pop song about a girl who keeps stringing a guy along, making him think that she is in love with him, but at the same time not being serious about it. The girl admits that she made the guy believe they were more than just friends, but her intentions were innocent and not serious. She sings about "playing with his heart" and getting "lost in the game." The lyrics describe her as a "fool in so many ways" who dreams of "heroes who truly exist." However, she acknowledges that her behavior is "typically me," indicating that it is a recurring pattern in her life.


In the song, Britney addresses her male audience and uses the phrase "Oh baby" throughout the song. She also uses a metaphor of a game to compare her relationship with the guy to a game where she gets lost in the process. The chorus of the song is catchy and repetitive, making it an instant hit with a younger audience. The lyrics are relatable to those who have experienced relationships that aren't serious enough or have struggled to control their feelings for a person.
