I Like You
Flipsides Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

He's a popular guy in town
He's pretty smart and he's good looking
My mom thinks that he is my type
I don't like him. It's not all right.
We went on a date. It wa such a bore
So I'll have to say when he comes knocking on my door.
It's just a lie
I'm saying yes, but I mean no
And it's just my luck. I like you but I
love him more. See, there's this other guy
in town. I'm not supposed to love someone




like him. I've struggled to get him out of my mind. It's not working.
It's not all right.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Flipsides's song "I Like You" portray a complicated love triangle where the singer seems to be torn between two different guys. The song starts with introducing the first guy who is described as a popular and attractive character, but despite her mother's typecasting, the singer denies having any romantic feelings for him. The second guy, who she mentions later in the song, is someone she loves but is not supposed to because of societal norms or circumstances. She is struggling to move on from him, but it's not working, and she has to refuse the first guy's advances by lying and saying yes while she means no.


The song is about the agony of having to choose between two people when your heart is divided. It talks about the frustration of being attracted to someone you can't have and the disappointment of going on a date that doesn't meet your expectations. The lyrics are relatable and resonate with anyone who has ever found themselves in a similar dilemma.


Ultimately, "I Like You" is a sad song that reveals the complexity of human emotions and the struggles we face when it comes to matters of the heart.

Nice to see someone doing new reviews of some of the older exclusives! Definitely worth a subscription :)

I believe Remix is intended to be an OC, but I count her in my extensive female bot collection.

Toy Spotlite

Thanks for subbing! Yeah, I like to break out some of the older stuff to review. Because it's fun and it gives me a chance to play with them. LOL. Remix might be a new character. Some of the stuff they put out is original, but I think this one is supposed to be the eHobby exclusive. I thought collecting was hard when I was just buying official stuff...

Flip Sides is a Double-Agent like (Marvel's ) Black Widow. Black Widow is definitely female, and likes the colors black and red. The round parts on the tape might be Spindles or Reels .

Kalob Hunt

I own a kfc twin cast and like three of there tapes would love more.
