Cher / All Or Nothing Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Boy, I know that you want some of all this
But I'm out with my girls and you can't touch lightning
So we dance, so we dance like you're just not there
Only been over here 'bout a minute
But you already sound like a dick, stop tryin'
So we dance, so we dance like you're just not there

'Cause Ew! What's wrong with you?
No, the problem is not my attitude
But you're, ew, just not my type
And the next time I won't be so polite

'Cause
Hey, this could be great, this could be great
This could be the mother fucking party of the year
Trying too hard, trying to be hot
Trying to keep on talking to us but we don't care
Keep it all in your pants boy
Keep it all in your pants boy (this could be the mother fucking party of the year)

So you can tell all your friends playing cupid
That it ain't gonna work 'cause you just look foolish
Back it up, back it up, yeah hello goodbye
Get a hold of yourself before I lose it
Baby laugh all you like, but I just might do it
Back it up, back it up, cause you're killin' vibes

'Cause ew! what's wrong with you?
No, the problem is not my attitude
But you're, ew, just not my type
And the next time I won't be so polite

'Cause
Hey, this could be great, this could be great
This could be the mother fucking party of the year
Trying too hard, trying to be hot
Trying to keep talking to us but we don't care
Keep it all in your pants boy
Keep it all in your pants boy (this could be the mother fucking party of the year)

Yeah, uh huh, yeah, let's go!

Hey boy, this should be the part
This should be the part where you eat your words like
Hey boy, this should be the part
This should be the part where I kick ya to the curb like
Hey boy, this should be the part
This should be the part where you eat your words like
Hey boy, this should be the part
This should be the part where I kick ya to the curb like

Thanks, but no thanks!

Hey, this could be great, this could be great
This could be the mother fucking party of the year
Trying too hard, trying to be hot
Trying to keep talking to us but we don't care
Keep it all in your pants boy
Keep it all in your pants boy (this could be the mother fucking party of the year)

Hey, this could be great, this could be great
This could be the mother fucking party of the year
Trying too hard, trying to be hot
Trying to keep talking to us but we don't care
Keep it all in your pants boy
Keep it all in your pants boy (this could be the mother fucking party of the year)





Keep it all in your pants boy
You ain't got a chance boy

Overall Meaning

The song "All or Nothing" by Cher is about a group of girls who are having a fun night out and are being approached by a guy who is trying too hard to impress them. The girls are not interested in the guy and they make it clear that he is not their type. Throughout the song, the girls urge the guy to keep his distance and to keep it all in his pants.


The lyrics, "Boy, I know that you want some of all this, but I'm out with my girls and you can't touch lightning" shows that the girls are aware of their own attractiveness and that they are not interested in the guy's advances. The chorus of the song, "Keep it all in your pants boy, you ain't got a chance boy," emphasizes the girls' disinterest in the guy.


The song is upbeat and catchy, with a danceable rhythm that makes it a popular party anthem. It is an empowering song for women who want to have a good time without being harassed by men who do not respect their boundaries.
