Overrated
Carmit Bachar Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Verse 1)
So sick of arguing
Tired of fussing fighting
Far from the days when we first fell in love
And I, go put my high heels on now
I'm going out tonight
And I'm wearing the sexy jeans that you like, yeah
I'm too fly to be sitting on the side
While you're doing you like no one else can
Do the things you do when you're gone
I'm so tired of your sorry alibis
Time for me to pack my things and move on

(Chorus)
Cause I'm going out tonight
Cause love is so overrated, overrated
And later I may change my mind but for now
Love's overrated, overrated
Boy you know it's so (overrated)
It's so (overrated)
It's so (overrated)
It's so
Boy you know it's so (overrated)
It's so (overrated)
It's so (overrated)
It's so
Overrated

(Verse 2)
Soon as i step inside
I'm clearing out the floor
Got all the fellas watching me and my girls
And you don't have to worry
There ain't no need to call
It's okay boy
I'm not your doll anymore

I'm too fly to be sitting on the side
While you're doing you like no one else can
Do the things you do when you're gone
I'm so tired of your sorry alibis

Time for me to pack my things and move on

(Chorus)
Cause I'm going out tonight
Cause love is so overrated, overrated
And later I may change my mind but for now
Love's overrated, overrated
Boy you know it's so (overrated)
It's so (overrated)
It's so (overrated)
It's so
Boy you know it's so (overrated)
It's so (overrated)
It's so (overrated)
It's so
Overrated

(Bridge)
I used to be the girl so lost in your world
But I'm the same girl that you met
And fell in love with
Didn't really have time to myself
I was looking for love and nothing else
(But it was overrated)

(Chorus)
Cause I'm going out tonight
Cause love is so overrated, overrated
And later I may change my mind but for now
Love's overrated, overrated
Boy you know it's so (overrated)
It's so (overrated)
It's so (overrated)
It's so
Boy you know it's so (overrated)
It's so (overrated)
It's so (overrated)




It's so
Overrated

Overall Meaning

Carmit Bachar's song "Overrated" tells the story of a woman who has had enough of the arguments and fights in her relationship. She reminisces about the early days of their romance when they fell in love. However, they have now drifted apart, leaving her to feel that love is overrated. She puts on her high heels and goes out for the night, wearing her sexy jeans. She is too fly to be sitting around while he does whatever he wants, and she is tired of his sorry alibis. She acknowledges that she may change her mind later, but for now, love is overrated, and it is time for her to pack her things and move on.


The song has a very empowering message that warns against allowing oneself to be treated poorly. It encourages listeners to take control of their lives and to be independent.
