How do you do
Semitoo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can shake the thought of you baby
You’ve been on my mind
Is it all in my head
I can get over you
Oooh
I’ve been staring at you all day
I love the way you move
Is it all in my head
It’s like a dream comes true

Tell me how do you do
Dooh
Tell me how do you do
Dooh
I see you coming my way
I see you coming my way
I wanna tell you my name
I wanna tell you my name
Tell me how do you do
Dooh
Tell me how do you do
Dooh
I see you coming my way
I see you coming my way
You wanna tell me your name
Tell me your name
How do you do

Something good about you baby
Don’t know what to say
Should i follow my heart
Don’t leave me here this way
Will you take a chance with me baby
We'll go far away
No more playing the part
They all want you to play

Tell me how do you do
Dooh
Tell me how do you do
Dooh
I see you coming my way
I wanna tell you my name
Tell me how do you do
Dooh
Tell me how do you do
Dooh
I see you coming my way
I see you coming my way
I wanna tell you my name
I wanna tell you my name
Tell me how do you do
Dooh
Tell me how do you do
Dooh
I see you coming my way
I see you coming my way
You wanna tell me your name
Tell me your name
How do you do
How do you do
I see you coming my way
You wanna tell me your name




Tell me your name
How do you do

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Semitoo's song "How Do You Do" seem to be about the singer's infatuation with someone they're trying to meet. The opening line, "I can shake the thought of you baby, you’ve been on my mind," establishes the subject's preoccupation with this person. They describe staring at the object of their affection, entranced by the way they move. But the singer is unsure whether their attraction is mutual: "is it all in my head?" they ask.


Despite this uncertainty, the singer is hopeful and eager to initiate contact, as demonstrated in the repeated refrain: "Tell me how do you do." They see the person coming their way and want to introduce themselves: "I wanna tell you my name." The bridge offers some insight into the singer's thoughts and feelings. They feel that there is something "good" about the person they're interested in, but don't know what to say. They are contemplating whether to follow their heart or not, hoping to convince the object of their affection to take a chance on them: "Will you take a chance with me baby, we'll go far away."


Overall, "How Do You Do" seems to be a relatable love song about the initial stages of attraction, when we're unsure if the feeling is mutual and trying to muster up the courage to introduce ourselves.
