Hello
The Cat Empire Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With some evil in my eye
And some thoughts in my head
That were making me feel high
On my head was a hoodi
In my ears was some bass
Was walking by my dog
When I saw that sexy face
Come towards me
With a little cheeky smile
If she was a phone
I'd pick her up and dial
The fire brigade
Or zero zero zero
She stopped me in my tracks
And I said 'mmm hchello hchello'
I was sleeping in the sand
With some dreams in my head
That were causing an extension
To the towel and my bed
And the waves were rolling
Like the curves on those legs
Of a sweet beach bella
With that centrefold spread
In the midst of the slumber
I heard some footsteps creeping
And I woke to discover
The woman I'd been dreaming
She knelt down beside
Said 'can I share your pillow?'
I rolled over and I said
'well hchello hchello'
Some like money making
Some like cars
And some like the houses
With the rooftop spas
And some like to gossip
About some rich sugar daddies
But me and my friends
We like the golden brown honeys
And some like watching people
Living on TV
That's a little strange
If you're asking me
'Cause I like to eat and laugh
And **** and play down low
These are the things I know
Well hchello hchello.
Welcome to this night
Welcome to this song
Welcome to these rhymes
That be going on and on
Welcome to the empire
And the funky empire tunes
But most of all welcome
To the bellas in this room
Well hchello hchello
The lyrics to The Cat Empire's song "Hello" paint pictures of chance encounters with an attractive stranger and a dreamlike rendezvous with a beach beauty. The singer describes walking down the street with "evil in [their] eye" and "thoughts in [their] head" that make them feel high. They spot a sexy face, and they're immediately drawn to it. If the woman were a phone, the singer would pick her up and dial the fire brigade or emergency services. She stops the singer in their tracks, and they utter a seductive "hchello hchello" to her.
Line by Line Meaning
Walking down the street
I was walking casually on the street
With some evil in my eye
I had a mischievous look in my eyes
And some thoughts in my head
I had some thoughts in my mind
That were making me feel high
These thoughts were making me feel ecstatic
On my head was a hoodi
I was wearing a hoodie on my head
In my ears was some bass
I was listening to music with bass on my earphones
Was walking by my dog
I was walking my dog
When I saw that sexy face
I noticed an attractive face walking towards me
Come towards me
She was walking closer to me
With a little cheeky smile
She gave me a little naughty smile
If she was a phone
In a humorous comparison, I would pick her up like a phone
I'd pick her up and dial
I would pick her up and talk to her
The fire brigade
In a playful way, I would call the fire brigade
Or zero zero zero
In Australia, 000 is the emergency number to dial
She stopped me in my tracks
She caught my attention and made me stop walking
And I said 'mmm hchello hchello'
I showed interest in her by saying hello twice in a fun way
I was sleeping in the sand
I was napping on the beach
With some dreams in my head
I had some dreams while I was sleeping
That were causing an extension
These dreams caused me to have an erection
To the towel and my bed
I had the towel and bedsheet under me
And the waves were rolling
The waves of the sea were moving
Like the curves on those legs
The waves were similar to the curves of a woman's legs
Of a sweet beach bella
There was a beautiful woman at the beach
With that centrefold spread
Her legs were spread open widely
In the midst of the slumber
I was sleeping soundly
I heard some footsteps creeping
I heard some footsteps approaching quietly
And I woke to discover
I realized that my dream was coming true
The woman I'd been dreaming
The woman from my dream was actually there
She knelt down beside
She sat next to me
Said 'can I share your pillow?'
She asked if she could share my pillow
I rolled over and I said
I turned around and responded
'well hchello hchello'
In a playful manner, I said hello twice
Some like money making
Some people like to make money
Some like cars
Some people like cars
And some like the houses
Some people like big houses
With the rooftop spas
They may like houses with rooftop spas
And some like to gossip
Some people love to talk about other people's lives
About some rich sugar daddies
They may like to talk about wealthy older men who support younger women
But me and my friends
As for me and my friends
We like the golden brown honeys
We prefer attractive women with a golden-brown complexion
And some like watching people
Some people enjoy watching others
Living on TV
They may like to watch reality TV shows
That's a little strange
I find it a bit unusual
If you're asking me
If someone asked me for my opinion
'Cause I like to eat and laugh
I prefer to enjoy food and laughter
And **** and play down low
I like to have fun without any pretenses
These are the things I know
These are the things that make me happy
Welcome to this night
Welcome to this evening or party
Welcome to this song
Welcome to this musical performance
Welcome to these rhymes
Welcome to the lyrics of the song
That be going on and on
The music and lyrics will continue for a while
Welcome to the empire
Welcome to The Cat Empire's music
And the funky empire tunes
It has funky and catchy music
But most of all welcome
Most importantly, welcome
To the bellas in this room
A warm welcome to the beautiful women in the room
Well hchello hchello
A fun and friendly way of greeting people

Everyone out here talking about the deadlycomics and georgia productions videos
Good, this song’s really good and its a shame the cat empire didn’t take off internationally as much so its nice seeing more people interested
@EmberTitan
Ever since I heard this song in the DeadlyComics animation, I can't get it out of my head. It's so good! New favorite band
@cloudshifter
DeadlyComics has that magic on people every time he makes a new vid. I am still stuck with "fell in love with a girl"
