The song "I Think She Likes Me" by Jesse McCartney tells the story of a wealthy bachelor who meets a woman and becomes infatuated with her. He believes that she genuinely likes him for who he is, but in reality, she is only interested in his money. In the lyrics, the bachelor describes his extravagant lifestyle with mentions of his luxurious house, expensive car, and expensive watch. He invites the woman to join him in his ride, suggesting that she can fix her makeup on the way. The bachelor is so smitten by her that he feels high when she kisses him and believes that she likes him because he is a nice guy. The bachelor takes the woman to the beach for a weekend getaway and spoils her by buying her everything she wants from the shops. However, the woman confesses that she is only interested in his money and is not genuinely attracted to him. While the bachelor believes that she is the one and wants to introduce her to his parents, he is unaware of her true intentions. The woman is portrayed as a classic girl in public but has a more wild and promiscuous side in private. Despite the bachelor's wealth and attractive exterior, he acknowledges that what truly matters is what is on the inside. However, the woman's true intentions prevail, and she continues to manipulate him for his money. The lyrics show that the bachelor is a humble and genuine person who believes he can change the woman's life. However, the woman is more interested in material possessions and wants the keys to his expensive car. She doesn't reciprocate the bachelor's feelings and reveals that she and her friends have plans that do not involve him. Overall, the song highlights the theme of superficiality, where appearances can be deceiving, and people may be motivated by material gain rather than genuine emotions.
