Oops! I Did It Again
小甜甜布兰妮Britney Spears Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
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
The lyrics to "Oops! I Did It Again" by Britney Spears appear to be an acknowledgement of her past actions and their familiarity. She begins the song with "I think I did it again," suggesting that she has made a similar mistake in the past. The mistake she refers to is the act of making someone believe that they are more than just friends, while she sees it as just a crush. Britney then goes on to explain that losing her senses is typically her, which is why the situation repeats itself. The lyrics can be seen as an excuse for her behavior, as she admits to being a fool in so many ways. While the chorus goes on to repeat the phrase "Oops! I did it again" in a playful manner, the following line, "I played with your heart, got lost in the game," suggests that she recognizes the potential hurt her behavior causes.
The lyrics suggest that Britney is not interested in a serious relationship, which is evident in lines such as "That is just so typically me" and "I'm not that innocent." These lines can also be seen as a defense mechanism, as she deflects the blame of the situation onto herself and removes the responsibility from the other person involved. The interlude toward the end of the song, where Britney speaks with a man who brings her a gift, adds an unexpected twist to the narrative. This addition jolts the listener out of the song and into a more informal conversation.

**UPDATE** To clarify: This song and video were released in the year 2000, making it 20 years (as of 2020). The date shown on the video is the date it was uploaded to YouTube. Hint: YouTube wasn't around in the year 2000.
