Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
For a very long time (mmmm)
And there's no doubt in my mind

And I don't want to seem pushy
But listen, girl, your body sayin'
Something to me, girl

To treat you to a picture show

What yo name is
In Mario's song "What Your Name Is", the singer is expressing his interest in a girl he has been watching for a long time. He acknowledges that he is only 15, but he believes he is capable of being with her. He asks if she wants to go to a movie and if he can kiss her before taking her home. He also expresses a desire to spend time with her, get to know her, and claim her as the only one he is interested in. Throughout the song, he tries to convince her that their age difference does not matter and that he is the man for her.
This song is a typical representation of teenage romance, where the young boy expresses his feelings towards the girl he is interested in. Mario's smooth voice and the melodic beat of the song makes it a catchy and relatable tune for listeners. The repetition of the chorus and "what yo name is" makes the song easy to remember and sing along to.
