She Said
Stephen Jerzak Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Grab a drink dancin' under flashing lights
She's ah queen but she wont put up a fight
Everybody knows that shes a looker but she ain't quite right
So I lie through my teeth again

Been around see I think I know the type
Honesty is not the policy she likes
Choice words spoken to her in the heat of nights
So I lie through my teeth again

O boy would you mind if I got closer
O boy I can tell you want me don't cha

And I say why do you think that a wink can get you
anything you ask for, out on the dance floor
She said

Ohh do you love me
I wonder why she talks like that
Oh tell me something
Tell me how'd you get to be so bad
Hey I know something you don't
Lets go
We can go wherever you want to go
How would you feel if I told ya
(You ain't worth the trouble)

Hard to think dancing under flashing lights
Touchin me tellin me I'm just her type
And everyone's telling me that she's a Hollywood hype
So tonight I'm gonna lie through my teeth again

O boy would you mind if I got closer
O boy I can tell you want me don't cha

And I say why do you think that a wink can get you anything you ask for
Out on the dance floor
She said!

Oh do you love me
I wonder why she talks like that
Oh tell me something
Tell me how'd you get to be so bad
Hey I know something you don't
Lets go
We can go wherever you want to go
How would you feel if I told ya

Shes lookin at me but I know that she don't see
I couldn't love her when there's so many others
Blowing kisses at me but she aims to high
How could I love her when there's so many others
(repeat)

She Said!

Oh do you love me
I wonder why she talks like that
Oh tell me something
Tell me how'd you get to be so bad
Hey I know something you don't
Lets go
We can go wherever you want to go
How would you feel if I told ya

How would you feel if I told ya
Lets Go
How would you feel if I told ya
On the dance floor
How would you feel if I told ya
Lets go
We can go wherever you want to go
How would you feel if I told ya





(You ain't worth the trouble)

Overall Meaning

The song "She Said" by Stephen Jerzak is about his complicated feelings towards a girl who he is attracted to but who he knows is not quite right for him. He describes her as a queen but notes that she won't put up a fight. He knows that she is beautiful, but he also knows that she is not honest and doesn't value honesty in others. Despite this, he is drawn to her and finds himself lying to her to keep her interested in him. He describes how she talks in a strange way and asks why she acts the way she does on the dance floor. The chorus repeatedly asks if she loves him, but he seems to know that the answer is no, and that she is not worth the trouble.


The lyrics also touch upon the theme of superficiality and the facade that people often put up to appear more attractive or desirable. The flashing lights of the dance floor serve as a metaphor for the false sense of excitement and thrill that is often associated with hook-up culture. The line "Hollywood hype" suggests that the girl is caught up in the shallow, celebrity-driven culture of Hollywood, which only reinforces the idea that she is not worth pursuing.


Overall, "She Said" is a cautionary tale about being drawn to people who are not right for us and getting caught up in the superficiality of the dating scene. It warns against chasing after people who are only interested in appearances and encourages us to seek deeper, more meaningful connections instead.

Yasikins

Heard this song yeeaaars ago when I was a teen. This song is still catchy lol

Cooper Campbell

k so my friend told me about this song, said it was "pop." i can't say i completely agree, i just think it's more developed, as far as way more aspects to the song. it still shows his very original voice, it's just a more upbeat song. i really like it and from what people say, he's trying out different styles, which i completely support. i know he has haters that say all his music is one dimensional, so this should help show them that he can really go in many different directions. best of luck!!

Averie
