What She Said Lyrics
Believe in what you think is real
The time it takes for her to steal
It's you
It's you
It's true
It's true
Always
Feast your eyes over there
The perfect gun to keep you undone
You know that she's the one
Believe it or not
You're staring at her hips
A cigarette in between her lips
The prize is in the bag, yeah
She knew before she came
She likes to play the game
She's all the time in the..
It's true
It's true
Always
Worlds collide in between your heads
The smell of men wanted her instead
Her intent is just to play
She knew before she came
She likes to play the game
She's all the time in the world
Believe in what you think is real
The time it takes for her to steal
It's you
It's you
(Trying to get her)
It's true
It's true
Always
(To her, it's just a game)
She moves like the devil
And knows what is evil
She'll rip your heart out
And find another prey
Believe in what you think is real
The time it takes for her to steal
It's you
It's you
(Trying to get her)
It's true
It's true
Always
It's on you
It's on you
It's on you
The time it takes for her to steal
It's you
It's you
It's true
It's true
Always
The perfect gun to keep you undone
You know that she's the one
Believe it or not
You're staring at her hips
A cigarette in between her lips
The prize is in the bag, yeah
She likes to play the game
She's all the time in the..
It's true
Always
The smell of men wanted her instead
Her intent is just to play
She likes to play the game
She's all the time in the world
The time it takes for her to steal
It's you
It's you
(Trying to get her)
It's true
It's true
Always
(To her, it's just a game)
And knows what is evil
She'll rip your heart out
And find another prey
The time it takes for her to steal
It's you
It's you
(Trying to get her)
It's true
It's true
Always
It's on you
It's on you
It's on you

:) First comment.
Before I begin, mark my words - these guys will be big soon. They're great.
Anyway - if you haven't seen the video, you should. The quality is poor, and it was a low budget production, but it's still great, and will definitely help make the meaning a bit clearer. You can view the video here. [Hehe - I know the girl who played in the video as the 'sleaze', as I say, haha.]
It's simply about making mistakes and not jumping the gun. That's what the video makes of it, anyway.
The lyrics, however, tell a different story. When I first heard the song, I immediately knew I had the meaning down pat, or so I thought.
MY take on this song is thus: A young man [as the song speaks in third person of a girl] falls in 'love' with said girl. He is so blinded by his false love of her that he's shaded from her true personality. ["Believe in what you think is real"]
Then along comes her real intentions and true colors, and he's dumbfounded by it. ["Feast your eyes over there The perfect gun to keep you undone You know that she's the one Believe it or not You're staring at her hips A cigarette in between her lips The prize is in the bag, yeah"] In this he looks upon his 'true love' and sees what she really is - a bit of a sleaze, haha.
Then comes the argument. He confronts her and she tries to deny his story, but he knows what he saw, and he won't back down. ["Worlds collide in between your heads The smell of men wanted her instead Her intent is just to play"]
And then the following backs-up my opinion of her 'sleazy' behavior; that she plays men, basically. ["She moves like the devil And knows what is evil She'll rip your heart out And find another prey"]
I think the rest of it is simple enough to understand.
However, like I stated earlier - the lyrics and the video go together quite nicely, but the lyrics alone tell a different tale.
