The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Smile Mona Lisa" by the artist "Will.I.Am"

In the song "Smile Mona Lisa" by Will.I.Am, the lyrics tell a story about a man whose girlfriend, Mona Lisa, aspires to be a model. He loves her dearly and doesn't want to let her go, but her desire to travel and pursue a modeling career sparks jealousy and fear of losing her.

The lyrical protagonist describes Mona Lisa informing him about her ambition to become a model, envisioning a life of travel and luxury. He, in turn, confesses his love and unwillingness to let her go. Mona Lisa assures him everything will be alright, but his jealousy persists as he imagines other men looking at her while she works.

The lyrics depict a conflict between Mona Lisa's desire for self-realization and the protagonist's fear of losing his beloved. He understands his jealousy might seem unreasonable, especially since they have a good life, but he can't help his feelings.

The repeating phrase "Smile for me, Mona Lisa, Lisa!" can be interpreted as the protagonist's plea for his lover to be happy, despite everything, and not to forget about him.

Let me tell you about my girlfriend,

My girlfriend Mona Lisa,

She let somebody take a picture

So she can be a fashionista.

She said she wanna be a model

But what she wanna be a model for?

She told me that she want to travel

Walk in the room at the Milano.

But I tell her that I love her,

Adore her, I need her, my Lisa.

She told me trust her,

I want to, I wanna trust her.

And I dont know why it hurts me, it hurts me, it hurts me

I get jelous when she working, working, working

All the fellas they be looking, looking, looking

They're looking at my Lisa, Lisa, Lisa.

Let me tell you about my baby,

My baby Mona Lisa.

She told me that I'm acting crazy,

She said I need to free her.

She said she feel like she imprisoned

But why she'd feel like she's in prison?

We always go into the Oceanside, and the Mountain Top

We'd be living a good living.

She wanna be a model and travel

And walk in the room at the Milano.

She says I'm jealous, I know I'm jealous,

Because I want her only for me and I fear to lose.

And it hurts me, hurts me, hurts me,

All the time she be working, working, working,

And boys be flirting, flirting, flirting,

Flirting with my Lisa, Lisa, Lisa.

Smile for me Mona Lisa, Lisa,

Smile for me Mona Lisa, Lisa,

Smile for me Mona Lisa, Lisa,

Smile for me Mona Lisa, Lisa.
