I'm Yours
The Rat Pack Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm gonna paper all my walls with your love letters
And invite you over some night
I'm gonna read you every line where you promised to be mine
And show you all the vows you made in black and white
But if you think you're fooling me with your love love letters
Well baby, now it's time you knew the score
I'm gonna find somebody new to write me love letters
And paper them all over yours

I'm gonna paper all my walls with your love letters
And invite you over some night
I'm gonna read you every line where you promised to be mine
And show you all the vows you made in black and white
But if you think you're fooling me with your love love letters
Well baby, now it's time you knew the score
I'm gonna find somebody new to write me love letters




And paper them all over yours
All over yours

Overall Meaning

The Rat Pack's "I'm Yours" is a cleverly written song about a person who has been hurt in love and is ready to seek revenge. The lyrics suggest that the singer has received numerous love letters from the person who hurt them and has kept them all. The singer plans on using these letters to decorate their walls and show the person who wrote them just how much they were loved at one point. The singer also plans on finding someone else to write them love letters and papering them all over the original letters.


The song is full of wit and sarcasm with lines like, "But if you think you're fooling me with your love love letters, well baby now it's time you knew the score." This line suggests that the singer is no longer fooled by the sweet words of their former love and is taking action to move on with their life. The final line, "All over yours" is a clear indication that the singer intends to hurt the person who hurt them by covering their love letters with someone else's declarations of love.


Overall, the song is a playful take on revenge and the power of words written on paper. The singer is taking control of the situation and making a statement that they will not be played for a fool.
