Oops
Daves Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oops, my heart went oops,
The moment that we met, my heart went oops,
I never will forget, my heart turned hoops,
The moment that I met you

Oops, my feet went oops,
I nearly took a spill, my knees went oops,
They shook up it until, my head went oops,
You mustn't let it get you

I was going for a very
Choo'd call a solitary sorta stroll
Just a twiddle of my thumb
When I heard a lot of drums begun to pound and roar

And oops, my heart went oops,
It went into a spin of loop-di-loops
You must've thought me kin to nincompoops
The silly way I acted

Of course you wouldn't know,
That you were so a-glow, and I was so attracted
But baby take a bow
My heart is going oops right now

Pops you are the tops
The moment that my eyes behold your chops
You lift me to the skies my heart flip-flops
You shouldn't make it make like that

Bell, my bucksom bell
I'm still in love with you cause truth tell,
You always kinda knew that we would gel
Cause jam could never shake like that

I was going for a frantic
But completely unromantic sorta drive
But I knew you wouldn't quit
When I dug you and you hit me with that old time jive
(sing it ella)

Then oops, my heart went oops
Sitting on the stoops, the local droops
They nearly flipped their toops, I mean in groups
The silly way we acted

Of course they couldn't know
That you were so a-glow
And I was so attracted
Yes baby take a bow,




My heart is going oops, oops, oops, oops, oops right now
Oops, oops then
