but dont blink you might miss | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/5/07
i love this song so much, and its actually not as hard to understand as you think. basically, he's been trying so hard to find out about this girl he fancis yeah, but a rumour about her bf/gf has ruined the like whole thing, and basically the rumour's true cuz its not been kept a secret (its not confidential) so basically she has to be a lesbian cuz he went out with her gf, that must have looked like a guy... (i just dunnur yeah about that bit, why would you...) in like whatever time cuz he cant really remember, and she must obviously be bi :)
It's a song | Reviewer: Natt | 8/3/07
Well the songs probably about sexual frustration or guilt. He says ' its not confidential ive got potential which i think is a trace of sarcasm towards his point that his girlfriend might be cheating on him with a transexual he previously went out. Ah , hell its a good song screw the lyrics, its addictive enough.
I will now translate what i said into younger peoples language( well im only 14 :P )
wel da sngs bout the guy bein annoyed nd he feels guilty.lyk he says ' its nt confidntial iv gt potntial'nd takes the mick nd makes it ob tht he knos tht his gf is chtin on him with his gf tht lkd lyk a bf ( HES GAY ) tht he had in feb las yr. da lyrics r bull ne way but its a gd sng ne way.
i wil now translate into my lang .

about the lyircs to "somebody told me" by the killers | Reviewer: katherine | 6/15/07
ok from what i got it figured out he's dating this girl and somebody told him that the girl hes going out has a boyfriend that looked like another girl he had dated back in february. so basically his girlfriend cheated on him with a transexual. I know im missing some stuff like the "its not confidential that i've got potential" but thats all i could figure out.
The song rocks though. :D
Maybe that's not really the lyrics | Reviewer: Stan | 5/14/07
It makes more sense if it was "good ol' friend" instead of "girlfriend".
sooo confusing | Reviewer: susan | 4/14/07
im confuse but i think that when he says "its not confidential ive got potential he might be refering that he or she or both of them are bisexual people well thats what i think
she is a he | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/27/06
Ok check this out retards, the girlfriend he had in feb... was a guy, a transexual, and he didn't know.
"somebody told me
You had a boyfriend
Who looked like a girlfriend
That I had in February of last year"
it's that simple, and if you look closely in the video, the girl in the red dress is a guy..you can see him partially hiding his face at the very beginning.
The first verse is a flashback to when he met her/him... the last verse:
"Pace yourself from me
I said maybe baby please
But I just don't know now
When all I wanna do is try
is his realization/confusion that it was a guy..telling him get the f*#$ away from me, but.. he really just wants to believe the rumor isn't true.. hope this was helpful.
A boyfriend that looks like a girlfriend | Reviewer: Jill | 7/17/06
You know that look, a hot guy that wears eyeliner and styles his hair. You know, the ones in the rock bands, and not the particularly the ones from the 80's. I think this song is about a guy that likes a girl that currently is dating a georgeous guy that looks kind of like a girl. This makes the song so hot...if you think of it this way!!
none | Reviewer: mandy | 6/26/06
Are you all seriously brain damaged? These lyrics are incredibly clear: someone told this man that this person had an effeminate boyfriend that the original man has had (ie slept with and/or been with) previously, in February. It's not confusing at all. If you have any problem with this, then you should reevalute your lack of tolerance and intelligence, not go to lengths to avoid the actual meaning of the lyrics.
Iffy lyrics | Reviewer: Dalton | 10/26/05
The song is great, and the lyrics are interesting, but I think that the previous theories are backwards. I think that he thinks he is gay. "Somebody told me that you had a boyfriend who looked like a girldfriend that I had in feb. of last year" could go either way, about him or her, but what gets me is "It's not confidential that I've got potential" which makes me think that he might be gay.
