Da Ya Think I'm Sexy
Featuring Rod Stewart Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sugar, sugar

She sits alone waiting for suggestions
He's so nervous avoiding all the questions
His lips are dry, her heart is gently pounding
Don't you just know exactly what they're thinking

If you want my body and you think I'm sexy
Come on sugar let me know
If you really need me just reach out and touch me
Come on honey tell me so
Tell me so baby

He's acting shy looking for an answer
Come on honey let's spend the night together
Now hold on a minute before we go much further
Give me a dime so I can phone my mother
They catch a cab to his high rise apartment
At last he can tell her exactly what his heart meant

If you want my body and you think I'm sexy
Come on honey tell me so
If you really need me just reach out and touch me
Come on sugar let me know

His heart's beating like a drum
'Cause at last he's got this girl home
Relax baby now we're all alone

They wake at dawn 'cause all the birds are singing
Two total strangers but that ain't what they're thinking
Outside it's cold, misty and it's raining
They got each other neither one's complaining
He says I'm sorry but I'm out of milk and coffee
Never mind sugar, we can watch the early movie

If you want my body and you think I'm sexy
Come on sugar let me know
If you really need me just reach out and touch me
Come on honey tell me so

If you really need me just reach out and touch me
Come on sugar let me know
If you really, really, really, really need me
Just let me know
Just reach out and touch me

If you really want me
Just reach out and touch me
Come on sugar let me know
If you really need me just reach out and touch me
Come on sugar let me know




If you, if you, if you really need me
Just come on and tell me so

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy" by Rod Stewart featuring a chorus and two verses describe a flirty encounter between two people who are attracted to each other. The woman sits alone, waiting for suggestions, while the man avoids her questions and struggles with his nerves. Finally, he confesses his attraction to her, offering his body if she finds him sexy. She responds positively, and they go to his high-rise apartment to spend the night together. The lyrics suggest that intimacy is their primary goal, and that they stay together despite a lack of milk and coffee.


The song's lyrics explore themes of attraction and romantic desire. The chorus, which repeats throughout the song, sets the theme by posing a question, "Do you think I'm sexy?" The verses build on this theme by illustrating the couple's flirtation leading up to their sexual encounter. The lyrics suggest that sex is a natural and important part of human relationships, and that giving in to one's desires is nothing to be ashamed of.


Rod Stewart's vocal performance is a highlight of the song, conveying a sense of playfulness and sensuality. The instrumentation, including a funky bassline and disco-era strings, reflects the song's 70s origins. The song was a massive hit upon its release, reaching number one on the UK Singles Chart and the US Billboard Hot 100.

Sugar, sugar...
She sits alone waiting for suggestions
He's so nervous, avoiding all the questions
His lips are dry, her heart is gently pounding
Don't you just know exactly what they're thinking

If you want my body and you think I'm sexy
Come on, sugar, let me know
If you really need me
Just reach out and touch me
Come on, honey, tell me so
Tell me so, babe

He's acting shy, looking for an answer
Come on honey, let's spend the night together
Now hold on a minute before we go much further
Give me a dime so I can phone my mother

They catch a cab to his high rise apartment
At last he can tell her exactly
What his heart meant
If you want my body and you think I'm sexy
Come on honey, tell me so
If you really need me
Just reach out and touch me
Come on sugar, let me know

His heart's beating like a drum
Because at last he's got this girl home
Relax baby, now we are alone

They wake at dawn because all the birds are singing
Two total strangers but that ain't what they're thinking
Outside it's cold, misty and it's raining
They got each other, neither one's complaining

He says: "I'm sorry but I'm out of milk and coffee"
"Never mind sugar we can watch the early movie"

If you want my body and you think I'm sexy
Come on sugar, let me know
If you really need me
Just reach out and touch me
