For Sabrina Carpenter fans, «Short n' Sweet» is their dream come true. The long-awaited album release came months after the release of popular singles in a row, from «Feather» to «Espresso» and finally «Please Please Please», with music featuring her boyfriend, Barry Keoghan.
Hollywood Life breaks down the most mysterious song lyrics from Sabrina’s new album, «Short n' Sweet».
In the song «Slim Pickens», the pop star reflects on ending her life «alone» and clarifies that she is «not dramatic».
«These are just thoughts passing through me», - she continues in the first verse. «All the fools in my phone / I play them like a slot machine / If they win, I just lose».
In the chorus, Sabrina sings: «Oh, it’s a slim pick / If I can’t be with the one I love / I guess I’ll just kiss you / Just to satisfy my desires».
In the song «Coincidence», Sabrina sings about another woman who seems to threaten her relationship. It is unclear who she is singing about.
«As soon as I laid my head on your chest / She knew, she has a real sixth sense», - Sabrina sings. «Now her name appears once, then twice / And even not being here, she’s back in your life / Now she’s in the same town on the same night».
In another verse from the song, Sabrina challenges her unnamed lover, singing: «Last week you had no doubts / This week you’re making space for her tongue in your mouth / Now she’s sending you pictures with less and less clothes / Trying to turn the past into the present, uh huh / Licking all your mutual friends».
Another song in Sabrina’s album points to a mysterious woman who seems to have stolen her unnamed lover, and the pop star teasingly taunts her that she will «feel» Sabrina on his lips. Even the music video paints a chilling story involving Jenna Ortega.
«I heard you’re back together, and if it’s true / You’ll have to feel me when he kisses you», - she sings. «If you want eternity, I think you do / Just know, you’ll also feel me».
In the song «Lie to Girls», the actress of «Girl Meets World» sings directly to an unknown person, advising them to stop lying to women.
«You don’t need to lie to girls / If they like you, they’ll just lie to themselves», - Sabrina sings in the chorus. «Like you, they’ll just lie to themselves / You don’t need to lie to girls / If they like you, they’ll just lie to themselves / Do I not know this better than anyone?»
