So What Does It All Mean Lyrics

The day I first met you,
Well I thought it quite funny.
Your eyes were so damn blue,
Your smile was a drug, your style was money.

So what does it all mean
To find someone that makes you cry inside?
She's got the players on her team,
How could I smile when all she did was say Hi?

-Chorus-
That one day when he is gone,
I'll get my chance to ask you out.
And then I'll show my colorful life.
------

I'd like to be like you.
With a rep like yours my little honey.
I'm not sure what I can do.
Just know that I ain't no f---in' dummy.

So what does it all mean?
To try so hard to get the right words out.
Well I wish I could come clean.
I'll give it my all, but I have my doubts.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Jonny Was kix @$$! They should get the recognition they deserve... well I think this song is about a guy who admires a popular girl; he wants her but he thinx he can't have her cuz of the crowd she belongs to. He wants to tell her how he feels but he's afraid of being embarassed. There's also another guy involved cuz he mentions "that one day when he's gone.. I'll get my chance to ask you out." Prolly a jock or sumthin... LOL... but that's just me :)
