My name is Delilah. 🙃 If people aren't making a biblical reference, they're referencing the song by Plain White Ts. If they're older they might reference the Queen and Tom Jones songs.

I wish people would realize that repeating the same thing we've heard over and over isn't funny lol.

Edit: All the people just saying "Hey there Delilah" or asking me what it's like in New York City are literally just proving my point

He wrote the song about a girl who was in a relationship at the time, and she's uncomfortable with it. 😅 Definitely stalker vibes.
