I think it's like she's giving him a choice like "we could do this we could do that, whatever u want  "

Also why is she telling the DJ to hit the lights? That’s not their job?

This is a certified "I'm not nothing unless I know I can" moment.

How does it make sense, she is saying that if she knows she can(do something) then she is nothing? Shouldn't the lyric be "I'm still something and I know I can", "I'm still something even when I doubt I can" or "I'm still something even if I don't know I can", I looked it up and it said an equivalent lyric to the one in the song would be "I am something, unless I know I can" which doesn't make sense at all, why is she nothing/not something if she knows she can?

“Not nothing” is a double negative, which becomes a positive. The whole rhetorical structure of the chorus is that she’s working backwards from a negative assumption (low self-esteem) to a positive affirmation (self-confidence). “Unless” in this context is a conditional, which means that the negative assumption she’s making is conditioning her self-worth on her own perception of her capability. I don’t disagree that it’s unnatural, but I think it’s deliberate because it reflects the fact that the mindset she’s trying to work her away out of is fundamentally one based on negative self-characterization to the point that the best she can do is refute those thoughts to work towards aspiring to be stronger/more confident/freer.

How the hell is she gonna be his girlfriend for the whole weekend, but he is only her boyfriend for just the night???

Because she's loyal to him for only one night, but she can pretend to be his for longer, but I fear he doesn't know she's a singer swinger

In Chromatica, grammar does not exist. If she had it her way, she would use quintuple negatives.

In Chromatica, rhetorical grammar is greater than all other forms of grammar
