Five Hundred Guys
Love's Triumph: My Baby's Eyes Choose Only Me
Lyrics
Five hundred guys have one thousand eyes for my baby
Five hundred guys are attracted to my baby and admire her.
They stand around and stare, no matter where she goes
They observe and gaze at her wherever she goes.
Five hundred men have one great big yen for my baby
Five hundred men desire my baby passionately.
They'd like to buy her things, like diamond rings and clothes
These men wish to purchase things for her, such as diamond rings and clothes.
I really had to overcome a lot of competition
The singer faced significant competition for the affection of his baby.
And I'm not telling how I reached my number one position
The singer hints at a mysterious journey to secure his favored position.
But four ninety nine are wasting their time with my baby
Out of the five hundred, only one is successful with his baby.
And here's the reason why they have my sympathy
The singer expresses sympathy for the unsuccessful competitors.
'Cause, baby, she got eyes for me
The singer's baby has chosen him, and he appreciates her exclusive attention.
Five hundred guys have one thousand eyes for my baby
A repetition emphasizing the widespread admiration for the singer's baby.
They stand around and stare, no matter where she goes
Continuation of the theme: people staring at and admiring the singer's baby.
Five hundred men have one great big yen for my baby
Reiteration of the intense desire of five hundred men for the singer's baby.
They'd like to buy her things, like diamond rings and clothes
Reaffirmation that these men want to provide material things for the baby.
I really had to overcome a gang of competition
The singer faced a significant amount of competition in winning his baby's affection.
And I'm not telling how I reached my number one position
The singer maintains secrecy about the strategy that led him to his favored position.
But four ninety nine and they are wasting their time with my baby
Reiteration that the majority of competitors are unsuccessful with the singer's baby.
And here's the reason why they have my sympathy
The singer empathizes with the unsuccessful competitors due to his baby's exclusive choice.
'Cause baby has two eyes, great big bright two eyes
The singer highlights the uniqueness of his baby's eyes as the reason she chose him.
Baby just has eyes for me, my baby just has eyes for me
Emphasis on the singer being the exclusive focus of his baby's eyes.
