Sarah Connor Lyrics

Sarah Connor it's an honor
Beginning of the song, introducing the singer.

Wyclef
Introduction of the featured artist.

Bounce
Explicit instruction for listeners to dance and have fun.

One night stand
The main subject of the song - a brief sexual encounter.

Love ya baby, drive me crazy
Expressing attraction and desire in a playful way.

Let me be your sugar daddy
Offering financial support and patronage in exchange for sexual favors.

Looked into my eyes
Claiming to have made an intense emotional connection with the listener.

I was convinced
Assuming that the listener shares the same feelings and desires.

That he's real
Believing that the passion and affection expressed by the partner are genuine and lasting.

Girlfriend
Addressing the female audience in a friendly and supportive way.

Ever had a boyfriend
Asking if the listener has ever been in a romantic relationship.

Looked to be your best friend
Referring to the common misconception that the ideal partner should also be a close friend.

Turned out to be a one night stand
Revealing the disappointment and regret that often follow casual sex.

He loves me
Feeling desired and valued by the partner.

He loves me not
Questioning the sincerity and consistency of the partner's feelings.

He screams my name in bed
Experiencing sexual pleasure and excitement during the encounter.

Makes me feel so hot
Enjoying the physical attraction and arousal between the partners.

But once he's out the door
Realizing that the partner is only interested in the sexual act and not the person.

He's already forgot
Being ignored and forgotten by the partner after the encounter.

The promises he made
Remembering the empty pledges and assurances made by the partner during the encounter.

At the break of light
Referring to the morning after the encounter.

To love me
Expecting the partner to develop genuine feelings and affection for the listener.

Protect me
Longing for emotional and physical safety and security from the partner.

Not leave me
Wanting a lasting and committed relationship with the partner.

Or hurt me
Fearing abandonment or mistreatment by the partner.

I was so foolish
Regretting the decision to engage in casual sex and trusting the partner's motives.

And so blind to see
Realizing the lack of foresight and self-awareness in that decision.

That all he wanted to do was to use me
Acknowledging that the partner was only interested in sexual gratification and not a meaningful connection.

But don't feel sad, bad, mad
Encouraging the listener to stay positive and strong despite the disappointment.

'Cause I've too been
Revealing personal experience and empathy with the listener's situation.

Through the rain
Metaphorical reference to difficult times and hardships.

And I can feel your pain
Offering emotional support and understanding to the listener.

Mama told me
Referring to the wisdom and advice of older female figures.

There'd be days like these
Warning that not all romantic encounters lead to lasting and fulfilling relationships.

So I'm telling you ladies
Addressing the female audience again in a caring and compassionate tone.

Take me to the bridge, Sarah Connor!
Asking the lead singer to perform the bridge section of the song.

Sitting in my room I'm all alone
Starting the bridge section with a sense of isolation and melancholy.

My friends think I'm crazy
Feeling misunderstood and alienated by others' perception of the listener's romantic choices.

Cause I'm waiting for your call
Expecting the partner to initiate contact and continue the relationship beyond the one night stand.

Was it a dream or reality
Confused and uncertain about the authenticity and significance of the partner's promises and affection.

When you said you'd be with me
Recalling the partner's words during the encounter that raised the listener's hopes and expectations.

For eternity
Expressing belief in the possibility of a lasting and meaningful relationship with the partner.

Holler, lend me your ears
Addressing the audience directly and inviting their attention and participation.

This is the wickedest combination
Boasting about the musical collaboration and synergy between the two artists.

Since Sonny and Cher
Comparing the artistic chemistry of the duo to the legendary musical duo from the past.

Say here girl,
Addressing the female partner with a mix of familiarity and seductiveness.

Take these dozens of roses
Offering a romantic and generous gesture to the partner.

And let me part the red sea like I was Moses
Using a biblical metaphor to describe the sexual prowess and assertiveness of the partner.

Love is love
Simplistic definition of love as a universal feeling or concept.

Two wrongs don't make it right
Implying that engaging in casual sex to forget or overcome past hurts or wrongs is not a healthy solution.

So let's make love in the dark
Advocating for sexual intimacy as a genuine expression of love and affection in a private and consensual setting.

Till we break daylight
Optimistically suggesting that the sexual encounter can last until morning and beyond.

Then hit the autobahn
Referring to the famous German highway as a symbol of adventure and freedom.

You and me in a Ferrari
Using a luxurious and expensive sports car as a symbol of status and desire.

Fall asleep in Germany,
Suggesting a sense of comfort and familiarity in the partner's home country.

Then wake up in New York City
Using a famous American city as a symbol of excitement and ambition.

Watch out for the wolves
Returning to the main theme of the song, warning the female audience against predatory or untruthful partners.

That be dressed like sheep
Using a biblical metaphor to describe the deceptive and manipulative tactics of some men to obtain casual sex.

Like sheep
Emphasizing the vulnerability and naivety of some women in romantic relationships.

Ladies, if you must have it
Warning that engaging in casual sex should not be taken lightly and without precaution or self-respect.

Make sure he wears a prophylactic
Advising the female audience to insist on safe sex practices, such as using condoms, to reduce the risk of sexually transmitted diseases or unwanted pregnancies.

Wolves bounce now
Reinforcing the idea that some men will only pursue casual sex and leave the partner with broken promises and impunity.

One night stand
Concluding the song with the same phrase that started it, reaffirming the fleeting and unsatisfying reality of casual sex.
