Bang Bang
Adam Levine Lyrics

She shot me, she shot me, Bang, bang, she shot me.
Receiving attention and love from her feels like being shot, in a good way.

There she goes again, The girl is Ethiopian.
The woman is of Ethiopian origin, and is remarkable in her own way.

In other words, she came through explodin', In the podium, dynamite Napoleon like sodium mixed with petroleum, Slowly but surely, she was walking toward me
She appeared on the scene like an explosion, with a strong presence, that is gracefully lethal yet combustible. Her beauty was slowly approaching him.

Cut the convo short 'cause she had to wake up early, But continuing the story, Don't worry she gave me digits for her Blackberry
She had to leave early but gave him her contact information anyway.

"You're very handsome" is what she said. And the way she looked in my eyes said "Put me to bed."
She complimented his looks and her gaze implied a desire to sleep with him.

Oh my, oh my, I should have known when she said to me on the phone: "You do not know me very well, but I would never hurt a fly."
He should have realized that a person who says those lines cannot be trusted.

Then she aimed at my chest with love in her eye. I said she aimed at my chest with love in her eye.
She looked at him with affection before shooting him in the chest.

Although I could have walked away, I stood my ground and let her spray. She shot me, she shot me Bang, bang she shot me.
He chose to stay and let her continue shooting him because he was infatuated with her.

Scorpion, She's so hot she's a scorch-ian, Killing me softly, Lauryn or Kevorkian, Couldn't tell if she's coo-coo or corky, when I asked her her name she said "Call me Ten."
She is a dangerous beauty who is charmed with a mystifying aura. She likes to be referred to as Ten.

Testing, testing Things just got more interesting She's dressed in a vest pin, double-breasted holster, A very Western toaster, She ain't nothing Kosher. Ah, she lets me closer. Hotter than a pepper-crusted Samosa While I try to keep my composure.
Things got more exciting as she appeared in revealing, western style clothing with an air of danger about her. Although he is trying to maintain his composure, the situation is very spicily promising.

Am I wrong? But what is love without the pain to go along? And what is pain if not the reason for me to sing this song? And this song is for the weak and for the strong. Cause I was strong and still, She got me, she got me, Bang, bang, she got me.
He ponders if love can ever exist without the pain, and this pain inspires him to write this song. He is aware that everyone is entitled to it, and acknowledges he's been impacted by her despite his strength.
