You wanna give me your number but you ain't saying nothing new to me (new to me)

The lyrics to Danity Kane's "One Shot" speak to a woman who is confident in her sexual prowess and is not afraid to let her partner know it. The song begins with the woman dismissing the man's advances as unoriginal and wondering if he can handle her. She then decides to take control of the situation and asserts that all she needs is one chance to show him what she's capable of. She teases him with the promise of pleasure, warning him that he won't be able to resist her once she's done. The chorus repeats the idea that all it takes is one chance for her to leave a lasting impression on her partner.
Throughout the lyrics, there is an air of sexual confidence and empowerment. The woman knows what she wants and is in control of the situation. She is not afraid to be assertive and make her desires known. The song is a celebration of female sexuality and the power that comes with being in touch with one's desires.
