Tiara Thomas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It don't mean shit, to a real bitch
Gucci, Louis Vuitton, you think you're the bomb
But it don't mean shit, to a real bitch
[Bridge:]
And I ain't one of those emo girls that don't like fashion
I like going on shopping sprees as much as the next one
Cause baby if I gave you this (uh uh)
It's cause I wanna give you this (uh uh)
[Hook:]
Cause all girls ain't after your money
All girls ain't even looking for love
And sometimes good girls get lonely
They was something money can't buy
Don't want the rest of your life, just one night
Just one night, I just want one night
One night
Oh, he sent me a picture of his Rolley
Next to some rolled up og
He said he love girls and codeine
And he got a lot of money but I just sent that emoji
Stale face passed out with that pale face, snoring
Eat it, beat it up like a cell mate, phoney
And the s** is, a game it's a tailgate, scoring
The results came back and I'm not yours, Maury
Oh, I'm sorry I could go a little mental
I'm just trynna say something real simple
You feel crunchy at first like Mentos
But eventually a nigga get the memo
So before you open your dental
And before you pull up in the rental
Remember some girls like simple
A man that hold it down and keep it confidential
[Hook:]
Cause all girls ain't after your money
All girls ain't even looking for love
And sometimes good girls get lonely
They was something money can't buy
Don't want the rest of your life, just one night
Just one night, I just want one night
One night
One night, one night, one night
That's all I need it's so simple baby
Don't complicate it
One night, one night, one night
That's all I need it's so
All I need from you is this
Give me the key to your room and a kiss
[Bridge:]
And I ain't one of those emo girls that don't like fashion
I like going on shopping sprees as much as the next one
And I ain't trying to be rude but you can go ahead with that accent
Cause baby if I gave you this (uh uh)
It's cause I wanna give you this (uh uh)
[Hook:]
Cause all girls ain't after your money
All girls ain't even looking for love
And sometimes good girls get lonely
They was something money can't buy
Don't want the rest of your life, just one night
Just one night, I just want one night
One night
In Tiara Thomas’s song “One Night,” she wants to clear the air about all girls being the same. Tiara admits that she loves fashion and shopping as much as any other woman but wants to dismiss the common notion that all women are gold-diggers. She talks about how all the materialistic things that men show off may not matter to every girl, especially if they just want to have one night of fun. She’s not trying to be rude, but the accent and the expensive items mean nothing to her if it's just a one-time thing. The second verse is about a guy who sends her a picture of his luxury watch and claims to love women and drugs, but Tiara merely responds by sending him an emoji. She wants a man who can keep it simple, hold it down, and keep it confidential, as sometimes good girls get lonely, and all they want is one night.
Line by Line Meaning
You can call me crazy, but all that balling baby
You may think I'm insane, but all that spending and flaunting wealth means nothing to a genuine woman
It don't mean shit, to a real bitch
All those expensive possessions don't hold any value or significance to a woman with substance
Gucci, Louis Vuitton, you think you're the bomb
You believe that these designer labels make you superior and envied by others
But it don't mean shit, to a real bitch
But to a woman who has her priorities in order, these labels and material possessions hold no significance
And I ain't one of those emo girls that don't like fashion
I'm not one of those girls who oppose fashion because they're emo
I like going on shopping sprees as much as the next one
I enjoy shopping sprees just like any other woman
And I ain't trying to be rude but you can go ahead with that accent
I'm not trying to be impolite, but your accent doesn't impress me or interest me in any way
Cause baby if I gave you this (uh uh)
Because if I gave myself to you
It's cause I wanna give you this (uh uh)
It's because I want to offer myself to you
Cause all girls ain't after your money
Because not all women are gold-diggers
All girls ain't even looking for love
Some women aren't seeking love either
And sometimes good girls get lonely
Even well-behaved women get lonely
They was something money can't buy
They want something that money can't buy
Don't want the rest of your life, just one night
They're uninterested in settling down for the rest of their lives, they only want one night
Oh, he sent me a picture of his Rolley
He sent me an image of his Rolex watch
Next to some rolled up og
Next to some marijuana rolled in 'OG' style
He said he love girls and codeine
He claimed to love girls and cough syrup mixed with soda
And he got a lot of money but I just sent that emoji
Although he's wealthy, I just responded to him with a simple emoji
Stale face passed out with that pale face, snoring
A face that's not lively, passed out with a pale complexion and snoring
Eat it, beat it up like a cell mate, phoney
Pretending to be rough and sexual like a prison mate, but it's not authentic
And the s** is, a game it's a tailgate, scoring
Sex is treated like a sporting event; it's all about scoring
The results came back and I'm not yours, Maury
The paternity test results came in, and you're not the father, as seen on the TV show Maury Povich
Oh, I'm sorry I could go a little mental
I apologize, I might become a little irrational or emotional
I'm just trynna say something real simple
I'm just trying to state something that's easy to understand
You feel crunchy at first like Mentos
You may initially feel hesitant, like the crunchiness of a Mentos candy
But eventually a nigga get the memo
But eventually, you will understand
So before you open your dental
So before you decide to speak
And before you pull up in the rental
And before you arrive in your rental car
Remember some girls like simple
Remember that some women prefer simplicity
A man that hold it down and keep it confidential
A man who can take care of business and keep things private
That's all I need it's so simple baby
All I require is one night, it's not complicated
Don't complicate it
Don't make it more complex than it needs to be
All I need from you is this
All I need from you is the key to your room and a kiss
One night, one night, one night
Just one night
That's all I need it's so simple baby
All I require is one night, it's not complicated
Cause all girls ain't after your money
Because not all women are gold-diggers
All girls ain't even looking for love
Some women aren't seeking love either
And sometimes good girls get lonely
Even well-behaved women get lonely
They was something money can't buy
They want something that money can't buy
Don't want the rest of your life, just one night
They're uninterested in settling down for the rest of their lives, they only want one night
Just one night, I just want one night
I'm only seeking one night, only one night
One night
Just one night

+Gideon Krop one word 'exposure'. This is first time I heard anything from her since 'Bad' by Wale which I loved. At that time I was like who is that she is freakin' baddazz but forgot all about when I didn't find anything else like that. She is really very good no doubt tho.
