La chanson raconte une scène de tension amicale où John défend sa relation avec une fille, suscitant des jalousies et des provocations. Alors que les lumières s'éteignent et s'allument, il se retrouve dans une situation délicate, essayant de maintenir sa position face aux autres qui revendiquent également ses sentiments. La répétition de la question sur l'identité de la personne qui a "administé une claque à John" souligne l'absurdité et l'humour de la situation, illustrant les rivalités amicales qui peuvent surgir dans un contexte de flirt. C'est un moment de légèreté qui capte l'esprit des années 50, rempli de cette joie désinvolte et énergique.
