One & Only
Fall Out Boy; Timbaland Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That I really can't deal with, deal with
I want to block her out my mind
But I really can't do it, do it
I tell myself this the last time
I'ma let her do this to me
Whenever we do spend time
Wipe that smile off your **** face, let me say to you
Wipe that smile off your face, let me say to you
Wipe that smile off your **** face, let me say to you
Wipe that smile off your face
To be despised, to be loved
To be dreamt of, to be sought
To be inside, I don't care
Right in the middle, I'm right in the middle
To be despised, to be loved
To be dreamt of, to be sought
To be inside, I don't care
Be my unholy, my one and my lonely
If I could start with words 'cause it's the only hope of feasting I got left
And everything I love about you is a mess
Smash the mirror and break the palm in his hand
I want to be better than I am
Let me say to you
Wipe that smile off your **** face, let me say to you
Wipe that smile off your face, let me say to you
Wipe that smile off your **** face, let me say to you
Wipe that smile off your face
To be despised, to be loved
To be dreamt of, to be sought
To be inside, I don't care
Right in the middle, I'm right in the middle
To be despised, to be loved
To be dreamt of, to be sought
To be inside, I don't care
Be my unholy, my one and my lonely
Girl, just look what you've done
How could you do this to me?
I gotta put my foot down
I can't let you do this to me
I can't forget those good ole times
And all the things you've been doing to me
I wanna hit that one more time
I mean love, what you're doing to me
I'ma say it loud, right here
Let's **** in this crowd
Why we arguing
I thought me and you were supposed to be friends
Let's chill for minute
Better yet we need a heal for a minute
Baby, put down the knife
Sometime I wanna save ya life, why don't you
To be despised, to be loved
To be dreamt of, to be sought
To be inside, I don't care
Right in the middle, I'm right in the middle
To be despised, to be loved
To be dreamt of, to be sought
To be inside, I don't care
Be my unholy, my one and my lonely
We ain't got no *** band
We ain't got no stinking the *** microphone setter
Timbaland, you tuned in, son of a b***
Let's get this f*** out of my house now
Before I get to my and I can't turn back
Hey, didn't I say you to f*** out
Get the f*** out
The song "One & Only" by Timbaland featuring Fall Out Boy is a complex mix of emotions revolving around a turbulent relationship. The first verse indicates that the singer is unsure of their feelings towards their partner, as they are overwhelmed by their emotions and unable to "block her out [their] mind." They describe feeling powerless in the face of their attraction to the person, despite knowing that they are not good for them. The chorus suggests that there is a struggle for power in the relationship, with the singer wanting to assert themselves and demand respect: "Wipe that smile off your **** face, let me say to you."
The second verse features conflicting desires, with the singer not caring whether they are despised or loved as long as they are given attention. They are caught in between being with this person and despising them for what they are doing to them, which creates confusion and distress. The bridge is filled with self-criticism, as the singer feels unworthy of their partner's attention and wishes to be better than they are. The song ends with a chaotic outburst, with Timbaland shouting for everyone to leave his house.
Line by Line Meaning
I get over heels for someone, I
I fall deeply in love with someone
That I really can't deal with, deal with
Whom I cannot handle
I want to block her out my mind
I wish to forget her
But I really can't do it, do it
But I cannot forget her
I tell myself this the last time
I try to convince myself that this is the final time
I'ma let her do this to me
Whereas, I allow her to cause me pain
Whenever we do spend time
Every time we are together
I realize that I can't get enough of you
I understand that I cannot resist you
Wipe that smile off your **** face, let me say to you
Stop grinning, I demand of you
To be despised, to be loved
To be hated or adored
To be dreamt of, to be sought
To be dreamed of or pursued
To be inside, I don't care
To be included, I am indifferent
Right in the middle, I'm right in the middle
Right in the center, where I belong
Be my unholy, my one and my lonely
Be my taboo, my only and isolated love
If I could start with words 'cause it's the only hope of feasting I got left
I wish to communicate as it is the sole way to satisfy my cravings
And everything I love about you is a mess
All the things I adored about you are ruined
Smash the mirror and break the palm in his hand
Destroy the reflection and shatter the grip on your life
I want to be better than I am
I aspire to be superior to my current self
Girl, just look what you've done
Look at what you have caused
How could you do this to me?
How could you hurt me this way?
I gotta put my foot down
I must stand up to you
I can't let you do this to me
I cannot allow you to cause me pain
I can't forget those good ole times
I cannot forget the good moments
And all the things you've been doing to me
And all the things you have done to me
I wanna hit that one more time
I want to experience that one more time
I mean love, what you're doing to me
I mean love, what you are making me feel
Let's **** in this crowd
Let's have sex in the midst of this audience
Why we arguing
Why are we quarreling?
I thought me and you were supposed to be friends
I assumed that we were friends
Let's chill for the minute
Let us relax for a moment
Better yet we need a heal for a minute
Rather, we require a cure for a moment
Baby, put down the knife
Put down the weapon, darling
Sometime I wanna save ya life, why don't you
Sometimes, I wish to rescue you, why don't you let me
We ain't got no *** band
We do not have a good musical group
We ain't got no stinking the *** microphone setter
We do not have a reliable sound engineer
Timbaland, you tuned in, son of a b***
Timbaland, are you listening to me, you are a fool
Let's get this f*** out of my house now
Let us leave my place
Before I get to my and I can't turn back
Before I lose my composure and cannot recover
Hey, didn't I say you to f*** out
Hey, did I not ask you to leave
Get the f*** out
Leave immediately
