Tera & PaperClap Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I, I get to know your name
Well if I, could trace your private number, baby

All I know is that to me
You look like you're lots of fun
Open up your lovin' arms
I want some
All I know is that to me
You look like you're having fun
Open up your lovin' arms
Watch out here I come

You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round
Like a record, baby, right 'round, 'round, 'round
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round
Like a record, baby, right 'round, 'round, 'round

'Round, 'round, 'round, 'round
'Round, 'round, 'round
'Round, 'round
'Round, 'round, 'round
Right 'round, 'round, 'round

I, I got to be your friend now, baby
And I would like to move in just a little bit closer

All I know is that to me
You look like you're lots of fun
Open up your lovin' arms
I want some

All I know is that to me
You look like you're having fun
Open up your lovin' arms
Watch out here I come

You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round
Like a record, baby, right 'round, 'round, 'round
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round
Like a record, baby, right 'round, 'round, 'round

'Round, 'round, 'round, 'round
'Round, 'round, 'round
'Round, 'round
'Round, 'round, 'round
Right 'round, 'round, 'round

'Round, 'round, 'round, 'round, 'round, 'round
'Round, 'round, 'round, 'round, 'round, 'round
Right 'round, 'round, 'round

You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round
Like a record, baby, right 'round, 'round, 'round
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round
Like a record, baby, right 'round, 'round, 'round

You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round




Like a record, baby, right 'round, 'round, 'round
'Round, 'round, 'round, 'round

Overall Meaning

The song You Spin Me Round by Tera & PaperClap is a remixed version of the popular classic hit of the same name by Dead or Alive in 1985. The song is about the singer being interested in pursuing a relationship with someone they find attractive. The lyrics suggest that the singer wants to know the person's name and phone number to get closer to them, and that being with them feels like a lot of fun.


The repeated phrase "You spin me right round, baby, right round" is a metaphor for the dizzying physical and emotional attraction the singer feels towards the person. They want to get close to them and feel the warmth of their "lovin' arms." The lyrics are straightforward and the message is clear: the singer is in pursuit of love, and they are not afraid to let the person they're interested in know it.


The song is a fun, upbeat dance track that exudes energy and playful excitement. The fast-paced, electronic beat emphasizes the singer's desire for action and movement. The remixed version of the song has a modern electronic feel to it, while still retaining the catchy melody and memorable chorus of the original.
