You remind me of something
I just can't think of what it is

You remind me of my jeep, I want to ride it
Something like my sound, I want to pump it
Girl you look just like my cars, I want to wax it
And something like my bank account
I want to spend it, baby

It's something about your love that's got me going crazy
Baby, you know I want you real bad
And girl I really like your freaky style
How can I be down with you?
So get a little closer to my ride
I want to get to know you lady
And hip me up on how to get inside you
Listen, pretty baby

I want to roll it, roll it, roll it, roll it
Is all I want to do for you baby
Girl, it's something kind of sexy
Goin' on about you babe

You remind me of my jeep, I want to ride it
Something like my sound, I want to pump it
Girl you look just like my cars, I want to wax it
And something like my bank account
I want to spend it, baby

You remind me of my jeep, I want to ride it
Something like my sound, I want to pump it
Girl you look just like my cars, I want to wax it
And something like my bank account
I want to spend it, baby

Now I would like to take you on a ride tonight
Girl, you know we'll have so much fun
And give you everything your body needs
Satisfaction guaranteed
So pull up to my bumper and let the system sound
Girl, I bet cha' I can drive you crazy
And let me be the one to drop you off
Babe, listen to me

I want to roll it, roll it, roll it, roll it
Is all I want to do for you baby
Girl, it's something kind of sexy
Goin' on about you babe

You remind me of my jeep, I want to ride it
Something like my sound, I want to pump it
Girl you look just like my cars, I want to wax it
And something like my bank account
I want to spend it, baby

You remind me of my jeep, I want to ride it
Something like my sound, I want to pump it
Girl you look just like my cars, I want to wax it
And something like my bank account
I want to spend it, baby

Don't be alone, don't be alone
I'm comin' through your door
Turn off the lights, turn off the lights, baby
It's something about this moment

You remind me of my jeep, I want to ride it
Something like my sound, I want to pump it
Girl you look just like my cars, I want to wax it
And something like my bank account
I want to spend it, baby

You remind me of my jeep, I want to ride it
Something like my sound, I want to pump it
Girl you look just like my cars, I want to wax it
And something like my bank account
I want to spend it, baby

You remind me of my jeep, I want to ride it
Something like my sound, I want to pump it
Girl you look just like my cars, I want to wax it




And something like my bank account
I want to spend it, baby

Overall Meaning

"You Remind Me of Something" by R. Kelly is a song about a woman who reminds the singer of various things that he desires - his jeep, his sound system, his cars, and his bank account. The song describes how the woman's love has made the singer go crazy and how he wants to be with her. The chorus of the song repeats the line, "you remind me of my jeep, I want to ride it, something like my sound, I want to pump it, girl you look just like my car, I want to wax it, and something like my bank account, I want to spend it, baby."


The lyrics of the song suggest that the singer is equating the woman with materialistic possessions that he desires. The references to his jeep, sound system, cars, and bank account indicate that he wants to possess the woman in the same way that he possesses his material goods. However, the lyrics also suggest that the singer is attracted to the woman's personality and "freaky style." The song can be interpreted as a portrayal of the objectification of women and the desire for materialistic possessions despite their lack of emotional fulfillment.


Overall, "You Remind Me of Something" is a sexually charged and provocative song that uses materialistic metaphors to describe the singer's desires for a woman. The lyrics suggest that the woman is seen as a possession rather than a person and is valued for her physical attributes rather than her personality.
