Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It) Lyrics
All the single ladies! (All the single ladies...)
All the single ladies! (All the single ladies...) All the single ladies! (All the single ladies!) All the single ladies! (Now put your hands up!) Up in the club (club), we just broke up (up), I'm doing my own little thing; You decided to dip (dip), and now you wanna trip (trip), 'cause another brotha noticed me... I'm up on him (him), he up on me (me), "Don't pay him any attention..." 'Cause I cried my tears (tears), gave ya three good years (years) - you can't be mad at me... Cause if you like it, then you shoulda put a ring on it; If you like it, then you shoulda put a ring on it; Don't be mad once you see that he want it! Cause if you like it, then you shoulda put a ring on it... Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh... Whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh... If you like it, then you shoulda put a ring on it; If you like it, then you shoulda put a ring on it; Don't be mad once you see that he want it! If you like it, then you shoulda put a ring on it... I got gloss on my lips (lips), a man on my hips (hips), on me tighter than my Dereon jeans; Actin' up (up), drank in my cup (cup) - I can care less what you think... I need no permission; did I mention, "Don't pay him any attention"? 'Cause you had your turn (turn), but now you gonna learn what it really feels like to miss Bey... Cause if you like it, then you shoulda put a ring on it; If you like it, then you shoulda put a ring on it; Don't be mad once you see that he want it! Cause if you like it, then you shoulda put a ring on it... Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh... Whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh... If you like it, then you shoulda put a ring on it; If you like it, then you shoulda put a ring on it; Don't be mad once you see that he want it! If you like it, then you shoulda put a ring on it... Whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh... Whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh... Don't treat me to these things of the world... I'm not that kind of girl! Your love is what I prefer - What I deserve... Is a man that makes me, then takes me, and delivers me to a destiny, to infinity and beyond! Pull me into your arms, say I'm the one you want; If you don't, you'll be alone, and like a ghost, I'll be gone... All the single ladies! (All the single ladies!) All the single ladies! (All the single ladies!) All the single ladies! (All the single ladies!) All the single ladies! (Now put your hands up!) Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh... Whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh... Whoa-oh-oh... Cause if you like it, then you shoulda put a ring on it; If you like it, then you shoulda put a ring on it; Don't be mad once you see that he want it! If you like it, then you shoulda put a ring on it... (Whoa-oh-oh...) Cause if you like it, then you shoulda put a ring on it; If you like it, then you shoulda put a ring on it; Don't be mad once you see that he want it! If you like it, then you shoulda put a ring on it... (Oh-oh-oh!) |

As for the meaning, quitejaded hit it right on the head. She's with another man at a club (we're assuming they're engaged), her ex sees them and gets jealous.

Oh and I love to work out to this song too, haha.
But anyway, the person she's with at the club definitely isn't her fiancee or husband-- sounds to me like she and her boyfriend recently ended things, so she went out to the club to get her mind off of it and move on. Some hottie went over to her, they're dancing and having a good time when her ex walks in and sees her and is like wtf ho, and she's all... shut your facehole, I wanted true love and you were hatin' so don't act mad cause if you liked me that much you woulda, you know, put a ring on it.

I love this song, even though I'm somewhat of an indie kid and should be ashamed. But hey, I like what I like.

It's also totally pathetic. Like the woman needs a ring to feel secure in her relationship? How incredibly pitiful.

I don't know what it is... I love the dance for whatever reason, seeing it on SNL made it more of a thing to enjoy, and repetative or not, the song is damn catchy after a few good listens.
Sue me.

You can clearly hear throughout the song that there is a similar sound to when Mario Jumps in the game.
We think that Beyonce is trying to suggest that after all these years Mario and Peach should finally get married. This would also mean that Mario wouldn't have to be so worried about Bowser any more because We're sure that he wouldn't try and kidnap and romance a married woman.
[We're deadly serious]

Are you serious? I'm not even close to being a feminazi, but the misogyny of that lyrics quite simply boggles me. Here is one of the most powerful ladies currently in the music business, and this is how she feels about herself? That a man is what "makes [her]"?
Well, at least Jay-Z and she won't have any conflicts. Sigh.

It's basically the same song as T-pains 'Buy U a Drank' but from the reverse gender stereotyped perspective. This song complete garbage that does no less than reinforce the already perverse sense of love, and self worth that woman who buy into pop culture have. It conflates love with the ridiculous and archaic institution of marriage, then it further conflates that institution with the most vain and materialistic symbol thereof. At the very least she was able to work in the line "we tighter than my Dereon jeans", so while the rest of the song is dribble at least she also manages to get across the message the meaning of life is to acquire the most fashionable designer attire (Note: that was better than any of the rhymes in this song), in case the listener failed to realize that this whole universe/consciousness system is really at it's core just here to feed into the psychosis of little girls playing dress up.
"I can care less what you think...
I need no permission; did I mention "Don't pay him any attention"?"
As a general rule when I don't care what people think and am not paying them any attention, I usually avoid singing songs in which the most commonly used word is a pronoun referring to them. That is of course if you don't count 'oh' as a word, the oh oh oh line speaks for itself.
In closing Beyonce is clearly a Demon (think Bill Hicks, not the Pope) send here to corrupt human consciousness and soften the souls of the feeble for the consumption of their banker overlords. The fact that she has managed to attain this degree of stardom is a clear sign that the world will be coming to an end soon, and well, if this is the type of garbage that we're using the world to produce then it's probably for the best.
