Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You don't just leave a girl without a clue
Like it's up to you
You're coming back
You don't just walk all over broken hearts
Tearing love apart
You're coming back
You're coming back
Manners
Take a second look and you'll see
There is no one like me
Manners
You better reconsider
'Cause you will never do better

There is no one like me

You don't just walk away without a trace
You can tell it to my face
'Cause you're coming back
You don't just play around and get away
Hear me when I say
You're coming back
Oh, you're coming back

Overall Meaning

In the song "Manners" by Icona Pop, the singer addresses someone who has mistreated or underestimated her, asserting that they will eventually come back to her because there is no one else like her. She begins by stating that leaving someone without explanation or disregarding their feelings is unacceptable, and that this person will eventually come back to her. The chorus then emphasizes her unique qualities and the fact that the person ought to reconsider their actions because they will never find anyone better than her. She repeats the same message in the second verse, stating that one cannot just leave and expect to get away with it. The repetition of the line "there is no one like me" highlights her confidence and self-assurance.


The theme of the song is self-worth and the value of being treated with respect in romantic relationships. The singer is aware of her worth and refuses to be treated poorly, demanding basic respect and consideration from her partner. The song also suggests that someone who has mistreated their partner will eventually come back to them because they cannot find someone better.
