"She's a bandita/band leader"

The story:

At first I thought he was singing, "She's a bandita" but when I couldn't find bandita in the dictionary I convinced myself that the lyrics and title was band leader. I went over to a friend's house one day and his sister was watching the video to that song on MTV and I started singing along to it substituting maneater with band leader until she started laughing at me. I thought she was just laughing at my singing until the song info popped up on the screen and I realized I was singing the wrong lyrics. That was devastating for me because I had a massive crush on this girl and I had just made myself look like a total jackass in front of her. Needless to say I made a hasty, sulking exit.
