The song "Yes I Know" by KISS is about a confident and charismatic lover who is aware of his flaws but still believes he is close to perfection. The lyrics suggest that the singer is ready to make a move on someone they are interested in, and they are willing to charm and seduce them. The chorus "No-no-nobody's perfect, M-m-maybe I come awfully close" reflects the singer's self-assuredness and their belief that they have a lot to offer. The song also acknowledges the skepticism of the person they are pursuing, as expressed in the lines "Yes I know, I'm just like all the rest" and "Yes I know, I'm just playing the game." The bridge of the song suggests that the singer is aware of the other person's apprehensions and is willing to address them. Overall, "Yes I Know" is a bold and unapologetic declaration of confidence and desire, with a rock and roll edge that captures the essence of American bravado and swagger.
