You say you in the mood so show me how you feeling
You say you in the mood so show me how you feeling

The lyrics to St. Germain's song "How Dare You" speaks of a desire for sexual intimacy and the expression of raw emotions in a relationship. The singer urges his partner to show him how she's feeling and how much she wants him. He promises to reciprocate by turning her world upside down with his sexual prowess. There's a suggestion of a one-night stand or a casual sexual relationship, where the singer instructs his partner to come over whenever she's in the mood for some action. He declares that his body is hers for the moment, implying that the relationship could be short-lived. In the second verse, the singer boasts about his sexual conquests and his ability to charm women without looking for anything serious. However, he advises his partner to remain low-key and not "act new" if she wants to keep things discreet.
Overall, "How Dare You" is about the satisfaction that comes with a purely sexual relationship, and the need to keep it casual to avoid complications and emotional attachment.
