Is He Ready?
Mr. Scruff Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That you will always love and adore?
Look just as good to you in the morning
As he did the night before?
Out of a hundred million or two
Is he the only one for you?
If he's the only man in the world come rain or shine
Then he's a man like mine
[Male version:]
Is she the only girl in the world
That you will always love and adore?
Look just as good to you in the morning
As she did the night before?
Out of a hundred million or two
Is she the only one for you?
If she's the only girl in the world come rain or shine
Then she's a girl like mine
The lyrics to Mr. Scruff's song "Is He Ready?" revolve around the theme of love and commitment. The singer asks if the person they are in love with is the only one they will always love and adore, and if they still look as wonderful in the morning as they did the night before. The singer seems to be questioning the depth of the other person's commitment by adding that there are a hundred million or two other people in the world, asking whether this person is truly the only one for them.
The lyrics take on a greater meaning as they challenge societal norms surrounding monogamy and soulmates. The singer implies that despite the abundance of potential partners in the world, choosing one person to love and be committed to is a testament to their worth and depth of connection. By saying that "if he's the only man in the world come rain or shine", then he is a man like mine, the singer establishes the idea that love is not a competition – it doesn't matter if others see their partner as valuable as long as they see it.
Overall, the lyrics of "Is He Ready?" are an eloquent and heartfelt reflection on the nature of love, commitment, and the intertwining of the two.
