Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where you from how's it going?
I know you
Gotta clue what you're doing?
You can play brand new to all the other chicks out here
But I know what you are what you are baby
Look at you
Baby you
Got all the puppets with their strings up
Fakin' like a good one but I call 'em like I see 'em
I know what you are what you are baby
Womanizer woman-womanizer you're a womanizer oh
womanizer oh you are a womanizer baby
you you you are
you you you are
Womanizer Womanizer Womanizer
Boy don't try to front
uh I know just Just what you are ah ah
Boy don't try to front uh uh
uh i know just just what you are ah ah
You got me going
You're oh so charming
But I can't do it
a Womanizer
Daddy-O
You got the swagger of champions
Too bad for you
You just can't find the right companion
I guess when you have one too many makes it hard
It could be easy who you are that's who you are baby
Lollipop
Must mistake me as a sucker
To think that I
Would be a victim not another
Say it play it how you wanna
But no way I'm ever gonna fall for you never you baby
Womanizer woman-womanizer you're a womanizer oh
womanizer oh you are a womanizer baby

The lyrics of Sliimy's song Womanizer depict a womanizer and the way he behaves with women. The singer is familiar with the womanizer's style and warns others about his intentions. The song starts with the singer addressing the womanizer, asking where he's from and how it's going while also admitting that she knows what he's doing. She acknowledges that he can pretend to be someone else around other women, but she knows the truth about him.
The chorus of the song repeats the word "womanizer" several times, emphasizing the behavior of the singer. Sliimy sings about how the womanizer is charming, but he cannot be fooled by his behavior and won't fall for it. The second verse mentions that the womanizer has a swagger of champions but cannot find the right companion. The song ends with the singer saying that the womanizer can call her crazy, but she cannot fall for him.
In essence, the lyrics of Womanizer are a warning to women about men who behave like they're in love when, in reality, they just want to have a good time.
