Take a Bow Lyrics
Apparently the song was written about George Bush and this is who Rihanna is singing about in the song. One of her more political songs. "How about a round of applause A standing ovation" sarcastic celebration for his presidency. "Don’t tell me you’re sorry cuz you’re not Baby when I know you’re only sorry you got caught But you put on quite a show You really had me going" This mainly refers to the alleged inside job of 9/11 and how it was covered up and also the illegal war of Iraq. "But now it’s time to go Curtain’s finally closing That was quite a show Very entertaining But it’s over now Go on and take a bow" Basically means shows over. He's coming to the end of the road and the curtains closing so take a bow.
W T F are you inahalating dude!!! honesty...drugs are bad...

Very obvious meaning. Guy cheats on girl. He says hes sorry. She says well whatever bye.
And don’t tell me you’re sorry cuz you’re not Baby when I know you’re only sorry you got caught
I love those lines, theyre so catchy
Yeah the song is obviously about someone who cheated on her and did wrong, then got caught and is now 'saying' he's sorry but shes like...urrn no. i like it.
naw i love this song. one of my favourites from her !
Self-explanatory.
"Baby, when I know you're only sorry you got caught" So catchy. I love it.
This is my absolute favorite song right now. I think very often guys take girls for granted and they don't realize what they have until they screw up and they are gone. "Don't tell me you are sorry because your not, baby cuz i know your only sorry you caught..." are my favorite lines of the whole song because that is so true!!!!!!!
what the?? The lyrics of the song is really good. "take a bow", the line really sums up the song, its just linking her love life with a drama. So, just like at the end of every drama performers bow down, she's asking her bf to bow down, cause its the end. Really good lyrics. BTW related to George Bush??? how come, so what does this line mean "Talking bout 'Girl I love you You're the one'" means?? I really think, its about her past relation. The lyrics is easy to understand. Yeah, the drum beat could have been changed, its distracting the emotional message rihanna is trying to put across. Could have used an acoustic drum or no drums at all :) but the melody of the song is really good!
I like Rihanna but I'm not a big fan of this. The song is ok, but the whole theme seems lifted from the Best Deceptions by Dashboard Confessional, which is far more poetic.
Agreed. I just heard this song and realized that too.

basically the song is about " cheating " or shall i say being " unfaithful "
I love this song. It's a sarcastic song on breaking up...
