Roll The Credits
Paula DeAnda Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Roll, roll the credits)
Boy in the beginning
The beginning it was me and you
I was Bonnie you were Clyde
And we were running
We were running for an end and we knew
(Roll, roll the credits)
But then in the middle
In the middle you went and changed the script
Took a pencil and erased my happy ending
Instead of loving you I feel so sick
(Roll, roll the credits)
I know you directed it
I'm sure I produced a bit
So why's that chick stealing my show?

Baby tell me, who is she?
I need to know her name and number
Tell me, who does she hang out with when you're not together?
I ain't gonna do nothing crazy
I just need you to hear me
(Roll, roll the credits)
Roll the credits
And tell me how many of your friends you told all about it
They said you working last Friday night when I was calling
Did you lie to all of them too?
Or was I just a fool?
(Roll, roll the credits)
Roll the credits
Yeah yeah

You worked undercover
Gave her every single line I owned
And it doesn't make me feel any better
That you took her places we would go
(Roll, roll the credits)
I thought you were meant for me
My name should be on that screen
Tell me, why's that chick playing my role?

Baby tell me, who is she?
I need to know her name and number
Tell me, who does she hang out with when you're not together?
I ain't gonna do nothing crazy
I just need you to hear me
(Roll, roll the credits)
Roll the credits
And tell me how many of your friends you told all about it?
They said you would get last Friday night when I was calling
Did you lie to all of them too?
Or was I just a fool?
(Roll, roll the credits)
Roll the credits

I know you directed it
I'm sure I produced a bit
I thought you were meant for me
My name should be on that screen
We weren't even at the end
But you started auditioning
And let somebody star in my show

(Baby)
Tell me, who is she?
I need to know her name and number (I need to know)
Tell me, who does she hang out with (tell me)
When you're not together? (who does she)
I ain't gonna do nothing crazy (aint gonna do nothing so crazy)
I just need you to hear me (I just need you, I just need you to hear me baby)
(Roll, roll the credits)
And tell me how many of your friends you told (tell me)
All about it? (who did you tell)
They said you would get last Friday night when I was calling
Did you lie to all of them too? (all of them too)
Or was I just a fool? (oh a fool)
(Roll, roll the credits)
Roll the credits
Roll the credits
Roll the credits
(Roll, roll the credits)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Paula DeAnda's "Roll The Credits" depict a situation where a relationship that started strong has come to an end due to the guy's infidelity. The song's title is a reference to the end of a movie where the credits roll. In the beginning, the singer and her partner were like Bonnie and Clyde, running towards a common goal. However, in the middle, things took a turn for the worse. The guy changed the script by cheating on the singer with another woman, leaving her feeling sick and betrayed. Despite their shared involvement in the relationship, the singer feels like this other woman is stealing her show, and she wants to know who she is.


The chorus repeatedly urges the guy to roll the credits and end their relationship formally. The singer is hurt and wants to move on, but she also wants to know how many of his friends knew about the infidelity, and whether he told them lies to cover it up. She feels like a fool for trusting him, and she wants to know why someone else is playing her role in their relationship. The song ends with the singer demanding to know the other woman's name and number, indicating that she is ready to confront her if necessary.


Line by Line Meaning

Boy in the beginning
At the start of our relationship


The beginning it was me and you
It was just the two of us at the start


I was Bonnie you were Clyde
We were like the famous outlaw pair Bonnie and Clyde


And we were running
We were chasing after something or someone


We were running for an end and we knew
We were aware of our objective and worked towards it


But then in the middle
Things changed midway through


In the middle you went and changed the script
You altered our plans


Took a pencil and erased my happy ending
Your actions ruined what I thought was going to be a happy outcome


Instead of loving you I feel so sick
I no longer have feelings of love for you, just disgust


I know you directed it
You were in control of what happened


I'm sure I produced a bit
I had some influence on the outcome too


So why's that chick stealing my show?
Why are you giving someone else attention instead of me?


Baby tell me, who is she?
I need to know the other girl's identity


I need to know her name and number
I want her contact info


Tell me, who does she hang out with when you're not together?
I want to know who else is involved in our personal matters


I ain't gonna do nothing crazy
I won't do anything irrational or harmful


I just need you to hear me
I want you to listen to what I have to say


And tell me how many of your friends you told all about it?
I want to know who else knows about our situation


They said you working last Friday night when I was calling
Your friends said you were indisposed when I tried to contact you


Did you lie to all of them too?
Did you mislead other people as well?


Or was I just a fool?
Perhaps I was too trusting or naive


You worked undercover
You were secretly working against me


Gave her every single line I owned
You gave her all of the affection and attention that I deserved


And it doesn't make me feel any better
This knowledge doesn't improve my emotions or wellbeing


That you took her places we would go
You recreated experiences with her that we once shared together


My name should be on that screen
I should be the one getting recognition


We weren't even at the end
We hadn't even reached our goal yet


But you started auditioning
You started looking for other options


And let somebody star in my show
And allowed someone else to have a more significant role in my life


Tell me, who does she hang out with (tell me)
I need to know more about this other girl's social circle


When you're not together? (who does she)
Who does she spend time with when you're absent?


And tell me how many of your friends you told (tell me)
I want to know how many people you've confided in about us


All about it? (who did you tell)
What exactly did you say and who all did you say it to?


Or was I just a fool? (oh a fool)
Maybe I was ignorant or unwise


Roll, roll the credits
End this chapter in our lives

[Intro]
Ro-roll the credits

[Verse 1]
Boy, in the beginning, the beginning
It was me and you, I was Bonnie
You were Clyde and we were running, we were running
For an end we knew, yeah (Ro-roll the credits)
But then in the middle, in the middle
You went and changed the script, took a pencil
And erased my happy ending, instead of loving
You, I feel so sick (Ro-roll the credits)

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I know you directed it, I'm sure I produced a bit
So, why's that chick stealing my show, baby

[Chorus]
Tell me who is she, I need to know her name and number
Tell me who does she hang out with when you're not together
I ain't gonna do nothing crazy, I just need you to hear me
(Ro-roll the credits) Roll the credits and
Tell me how many of your friends you told all about it
They said you working last Friday night when I was calling
Did you lie to all of them too or was I just a fool
(Ro-roll the credits) Oh

[Interlude]
Roll the credits, yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]
You worked undercover and gave her every
Single line I owned, and it doesn't
Make me feel any better that you took her
Places we would go (Ro-roll the credits)

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I thought you were meant for me, my name should be on that screen
Tell me why's that chick playing my role, baby

[Chorus]
Tell me who is she, I need to know her name and number
Tell me who does she hang out with when you're not together
I ain't gonna do nothing crazy, I just need you to hear me
(Ro-roll the credits) Roll the credits and
Tell me how many of your friends you told all about it
They said you working last Friday night when I was calling
Did you lie to all of them too or was I just a fool
(Ro-roll the credits) Oh

[Interlude]
Roll the credits

[Bridge]
I know you directed it, I'm sure I produced a bit
I thought you were meant for me, my name should be on that screen
We weren't even at the end, but you started auditioning
And let somebody star in my show, baby

[Chorus]
Tell me who is she, I need to know her name and number
Tell me who does she hang out with when you're not together
I ain't gonna do nothing crazy, I just need you to hear me
(Ro-roll the credits) I just need you, I just need to hear me, baby
Baby, tell me how many of your friends you told all about it
They said you working last Friday night when I was calling
Did you lie to all of them too or was I just a fool
(Ro-roll the credits) Oh, ro-roll the credits

[Outro]
Roll the credits, roll the credits (Ro-roll the credits)
Roll the credits, roll the credits (Ro-roll the credits)
