Who
Big Bad Voodoo Daddy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Who's that creepin' through my window
Who's that creepin' through my door
You see, I know lots and lots of folks around these parts now
But I ain't never seen you before

I hear you creepin' through my kitchen
I hear you creepin' through my den
I'm starting to get the shakes now, Jack
You see, I don't know where you've been

I'm sweatin', and shakin', goin' out of my head
I'm observing from my position underneath my bed
I'm swearin' and pleadin' to leave me be
If you leave Mr., and set me free I said

Who's that creepin' through my bedroom?
Who's that creepin' through my hall?
If you leave right now and let me alone
I promise you I won't pick up that telephone no, no

I'm sweatin', and shakin', goin' out of my head
I'm observing from my position underneath my bed
I'm swearin' and pleadin' to leave me be
If you leave Mr., and set me free I said

Who's that creepin' through my window
Who's that creepin' through my door
You see, I know lots and lots of folks around these parts now
But I ain't never seen you before

I said who's that creepin' (who's that creepin')
Who's that creepin'(who's that creepin')
Who's that creepin'(who's that creepin')
Who's that creepin'(who's that creepin')
Who's that creepin'(who's that creepin')
Who's that creepin'(who's that creepin')
Who's that creepin'(who's that creepin')





Who's that creepin' through my front door?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Who" by Big Bad Voodoo Daddy describe the singer's fear and suspicion of an intruder who has entered their home. The singer doesn't recognize the intruder and is becoming increasingly frightened as they hear them moving throughout their house. The singer is hiding underneath a bed and is begging the intruder to leave them alone and set them free. The repetition of the question "who's that creepin'" serves to intensify the paranoia and fear of the situation.


One possible interpretation of the song is that it addresses a fear of the unknown and a fear of the other. The intruder represents an outsider who is unfamiliar and potentially threatening, and the singer's fear is rooted in their inability to identify or understand this person. The repetition of the question "who's that creepin'" could be seen as a manifestation of the singer's anxiety about this unknown figure and their desire to unmask them.


Another interpretation could be that the song explores themes of powerlessness and vulnerability. The singer is hiding and begging for the intruder to leave them alone, suggesting that they feel powerless in the face of this threat. The use of physical symptoms like sweating and shaking further emphasizes the singer's intense fear and vulnerability.

Подружка у меня
На диво хороша!
Она стройна
И не бедна,
На вкус как вишенка.

Моя подружка (Схожу с ума я)
Ведь любовь должна
Быть вознаграждена.
Хочу обнять её,
Мой Бог, она всё время мне нужна.
Так нужна.

Я спрошу:
Ну почему я? (Скажи)
За что же я? (Скажи)
Ну почему я?
Ну зачем ей бегать от меня?
Не пойму зачем ей...
Люблю её сильней,
Чем вчера любил, ей-ей.
Я ждал, что придет она ко мне.

За что?

Коль встретите её,
Передайте ей:
Мне так одиноко,
Нет меня грустней...

Моя подружка (Схожу с ума я)
Ведь любовь должна
Быть вознаграждена.
Хочу обнять её,
Мой Бог, она всё время мне нужна.
Так нужна.

Я спрошу:
Ну почему я? (Скажи)
За что же я? (Скажи)
Ну почему я?
Ну зачем ей бегать от меня?
Не пойму зачем...
Люблю её сильней,
Чем вчера любил, ей-ей.
Я ждал, что придет она ко мне.

За что? О, за что?

Я спрошу:
Ну почему я? (Скажи)
За что же я? (Скажи)
Ну почему я?
Ну зачем ей бегать от меня?
Не пойму зачем...
Люблю её сильней,
Чем вчера любил, ей-ей.
Я ждал, что придет она ко мне.

За что?

Lyrics, enjoy! :

Now if you've seen my baby
My baby is oh so fine
She's long and lean
And never mean
She tastes like cherry wine

And she's my baby (She drives me crazy)
Now a love like mine
Should never be denied
I want to hug and kiss her
Lord I really miss her all the time

All the time

Now I said
Why, why, why, why, why? (Why me?)
Why, Why, Why me? (Why me?)
Why, why, why, why, why?
Why'd she have to run away from me?
It's a mystery why
I love her more today than
I loved her yesterday when
I thought that she'd come back to me

Why me?

Now if you've seen my baby
Tell her this for me
I'm so sad and lonely
Down as I can be

And she's my baby (She drives me crazy)
Now a love like mine
Should never be denied
I want to hug and kiss her
Lord I really miss her all the time

All the time

Now I say
Why, why, why, why, why? (Why me?)
Why, Why, Why me? (Why me?)
Why, why, why, why, why?
Why'd she have to run away from me?
It's a mystery why
I love her more today than
I loved her yesterday when
I thought that she'd come back to me

Why me? (groaning voice) why me?

And I say
Why, why, why, why, why? (Why me?)
Why, Why, Why me? (Why me?)
Why, why, why, why, why?
Why'd she have to run away from me?
It's a mystery why
I love her more today than
I loved her yesterday when
I thought that she'd come back to me

Why me?

Now I say
Why, why, why, why, why? (Why me?)
Why, Why, Why me? (Why me?)
Why, why, why, why, why?
Why'd she have to run away from me?
It's a mystery why
I love her more today than
I loved her yesterday when
I thought that she'd come back to -

Why me? x7 (Progressively Louder)
