Help
Don't Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What do I wear?
I only told you twelve times
The first dress that you put on is still your best find
We've been sitting in this dressing room for hours
I need a break baby I don't have the brainpower

When you ask me my opinion
I'm always sure to be your minion
Girl, you're kinda like long division
Everything is difficult
Help me help you

Girl what you trying to do
'Cause I don't got a clue
No, I ain't no Scooby Doo
(Help me help you)
'Cause I'm hungrier than you
I just wanna get some food and you about to kill my mood
(Help me help you)
"Do these jeans make me look fat?"
Yeah I know you want the answer, but I'm smart and that's a trap
(Help me help you)
Oh, and here's a random fact
You still got my favorite hoodie and you need to give it back

It ain't that I ain't calling back
It's just you said you needed space
And so I'm staying out your way
It ain't that I ain't got your back
But you went out of your way to make that "k" a lowercase

When you ask me my opinion
I'm always sure to be your minion
Girl, you're kinda like long division
Everything is difficult
Help me help you

Girl what you trying to do
'Cause I don't got a clue
No, I ain't no Scooby Doo
(Help me help you)
'Cause I'm hungrier than you
I just wanna get some food and you about to kill my mood
(Help me help you)
"Do these jeans make me look fat?"
Yeah I know you want the answer, but I'm smart and that's a trap
(Help me help you)
Oh, and here's a random fact
You still got my favorite hoodie and you need to give it back
(Whoaa-oo-ooooo)

Baby girl when I ask you if there's a problem
Don't tell me you're fine. I know you're not fine
I just don't understand you, you steal the covers
And then you want me to cuddle you are you hot or are you cold?
Don't ask me if I think another girl is cute, that's a loaded question
What are you trying to do? What are you trying to make me girl?




We're on the same team, so just please just listen to me and hear what I have to say baby girl
(Help me help you)

Overall Meaning

In the song "Help" by Don't, the lyrics reflect a frustrating and humorous relationship dynamic between the singer and their partner. The first verse sets the scene in a dressing room, where the singer is growing tired of helping their partner choose an outfit. They express the need for a break and admit to feeling mentally drained. The repetition of the question about what to wear emphasizes the partner's indecisiveness and the singer's frustration.


The chorus highlights the singer's confusion and lack of understanding regarding their partner's actions. They humorously compare themselves to Scooby Doo, suggesting they feel clueless about their partner's intentions. The line about being hungrier than their partner and wanting food adds a playful element to the song, implying that their partner's indecision is impacting their mood negatively.


The second verse delves into the singer's willingness to support their partner despite feeling confused. They express that they are staying out of their partner's way, respecting their need for space. However, the lowercase "k" suggests that their partner's distancing gesture hurt the singer's feelings.

The chorus is repeated once again, emphasizing the ongoing frustration and confusion within the relationship.

The mention of the hoodie represents a small detail that showcases a potential source of tension or unresolved issues between the couple.


The final verse urges their partner to be honest and open about their emotions. The singer wants their partner to communicate honestly when there is a problem rather than pretending everything is fine. They humorously mention the common conflict of stealing the covers in bed and needing to know if their partner is hot or cold.
