Anna
Willy Dente de Ouro Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
her eyes were like black pearls
she danced with me all night
I felt like I was flying
and at the end she kissed me
my glasses fell on the floor
she looked at me and gently smiled
and I can’t remember her name
oooh
I think was like sandy... or anna
she wrote her number on my hat
so I could call the next day
but then some angry irish guy
ran away with what's mine
maybe I wasn’t thinking right
but I got a bat with spikes
I beat his angry irish ass
and took back what was rightfully mine
oooh
and I can’t remember her name
oooh
I think was like sandy... or anna
my mouth was bleeding and my eyes
were hurt as hell.. oh my
I took my hat back and looked
but the number of my girl was gone
These lyrics tell the story of a memorable encounter at a prom. The singer describes meeting a girl with captivating eyes, which he compares to black pearls. They spent the entire night dancing together, and he felt a sense of euphoria, as if he were flying. At the end of the night, she kissed him, causing his glasses to fall to the floor. Despite not being able to recall her name clearly, he remembers it being something similar to Sandy or Anna.
The next day, the singer finds that the girl had written her number on his hat, presumably so he could contact her. However, his excitement is short-lived as an angry Irish man steals his hat. Feeling a mix of anger and determination, the singer decides to confront the thief. Equipped with a bat with spikes, he successfully retrieves his stolen possession and reclaims what is rightfully his.
Unfortunately, in the commotion, the singer's mouth starts bleeding, and his eyes are also injured. Despite the pain, he takes a moment to search for the girl's number, but it's no longer there. This realization leaves the singer disheartened, as the chance to connect with the girl he felt a strong connection to seems lost.
Overall, these lyrics depict a memorable and exciting encounter at a prom, followed by a series of events that involve theft, confrontation, and disappointment. The song captures the fleeting and transient nature of connections and the disappointment that comes when something significant slips away.

I met this girl in my old prom
I encountered a girl at my former high school prom
her eyes were like black pearls
Her eyes resembled the lustrous beauty of black pearls
she danced with me all night
She gracefully moved in sync with me throughout the entire night
I felt like I was flying
I experienced a euphoric sensation akin to soaring through the air
and at the end she kissed me
With the night coming to a close, she bestowed a gentle kiss upon me
my glasses fell on the floor
Accidentally, my spectacles descended to the ground
she looked at me and gently smiled
Her gaze met mine, and she offered a soft, affectionate smile
oooh
Expressing an emotional response or sigh
and I can’t remember her name
Regrettably, her name eludes my memory
oooh
Conveying a sentiment or moment of reflection
I think was like sandy... or anna
To the best of my recollection, her name might have been Sandy or Anna
she wrote her number on my hat
In a gesture of interest, she inscribed her contact information on my hat
so I could call the next day
Enabling me to reach out to her on the following day
but then some angry irish guy
However, a furious Irish gentleman unexpectedly appeared
ran away with what's mine
He swiftly absconded with what rightfully belonged to me
maybe I wasn’t thinking right
Perhaps my judgment was clouded or impaired
but I got a bat with spikes
Yet, I managed to obtain a weapon adorned with menacing spikes
I beat his angry irish ass
I forcefully pummeled his irate Irish posterior
and took back what was rightfully mine
Subsequently, I reclaimed that which was lawfully mine
my mouth was bleeding and my eyes
As a result, my mouth bled, and my eyes suffered
were hurt as hell.. oh my
They were in extreme pain, agonizingly so
I took my hat back and looked
I retrieved my hat and inspected it closely
but the number of my girl was gone
Though to my dismay, the girl's number had vanished without a trace
