Sugar like apple pie
Let's have a party, y'all
Let's have a party, y'all
Let's have a party, y'all
You think I'm sexy, huh?
I'm international
What do you know? (What do you know?)
I'm in my Louis Vuitton's,
Flyin' like a bomb,
And I'll be ducking calls 'til I go home ('Til I go home)
We like the lights (Yeah we love it)
Stars and stripes (Yeah we love it))
All night (Yeah we love it)
I can see
You don't know about a girl,
I'll take over the world, and I'm gonna party like oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
You don't know about a girl
The meaning of the word,
'Cos we just wanna party like oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
So we gon' sing it
Oh-oh ha-ay-ah oh-oh ha-day-oh
Oh-oh ha-ay-ah oh-oh ha-day-oh
So we gon' sing it
Oh-oh ha-ay-ah oh-oh ha-day-oh
Oh-oh ha-ay-ah oh-oh ha-day-oh
I like the games you play
Why can't I play that way
I'll break your heart and then I'll mend it up (I'll mend it up)
Shine like a disco ball
Your intuition calls
But to me them all is not enough (Not enough)
We like them lights (Yeah we love it)
Stars and stripes (Yeah we love it)
All night (Yeah we love it)
I can see
You don't know about a girl,
I'll take over the world, and I'm gonna party like oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
You don't know about a girl,
The meaning of the word,
'Cos we just wanna party like oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
So we gon' sing it
Oh-oh ha-ay-ah oh-oh ha-day-oh
Oh-oh ha-ay-ah oh-oh ha-day-oh
So we gon' sing it
Oh-oh ha-ay-ah oh-oh ha-day-oh
Oh-oh ha-ay-ah oh-oh ha-day-oh

The song "About a Girl" by Sugababes is an upbeat track that highlights the fun and carefree nature of girls. The first verse showcases the energetic persona of girls as they bring the fun of life and add sweetness to it like sugar in apple pie. The chorus indicates that the girls are determined to take over the world and will party like there is no tomorrow. The lyrical composition is filled with catchy lines and refrains that emphasize the party theme.
The second verse displays a confrontational attitude as the singer "takes no prisoners" and loves to play games that could break a heart. The song suggests that her intuition is strong, and nothing less than a shine of a disco ball would impress her. The chorus repeats again, and it is sung with an undertone of rebellion, declaring that nobody knows about a girl and the meaning of the word. Girls are described as being beautiful with an emphasis on their unavailability as they take the number but never call. The song ends with a repetition of the chorus accompanied by enthusiastic music.
Overall, the song is empowering and projects an image of strong-willed girls who are determined to live life on their terms. The lyrics draw a clear line between the singer's personality and that of an average girl. The song's upbeat tempo and energetic chorus make it a great dance track.

I will cause emotional pain to you, but then I will try to fix it
Shine like a disco ball
I sparkle and shine brightly, like a disco ball
Your intuition calls

But to me them all is not enough (Not enough)
To me, your intuition and feelings are not sufficient or important enough

So we gon' sing it
We are going to sing and express ourselves
Beauty like you never saw
I am incredibly beautiful and stunning
Take your number, never call
I will take your phone number but won't actually contact you
Bite the apple, take your heart
I will seduce and take your heart, just like the biblical story of Adam and Eve
