Ew
Emily Deahl Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It may not be all right but it is true
These feelings on my mind fill me all the time (all the time)
Turning my heart into bippity boppity ew
I lay awake at night in my apartment
Wishing I was lying on the moon
I reach out for the stars but these feelings are (feelings are)
I'm fightin′, I'm fightin', I′m fightin′ these feelings for you
I'm trying to hide it but I can′t deny it, it is true
You're turnin′ my heart into bippity boppity ew
You're turnin′ my heart into
Turnin' my heart into
Turnin' my heart into bippity boppity ew
Bippity boppity ew (ew, ew)
Ew (ew, ew)
Ew (ew, ew)
Ew (ew, ew)
I know I′ll never rest until I get there
I′ll never shut an eye until I do (until I do)
I guess I'd better run to keep these feelings from (feelings from)
Turning my heart into bippity boppity ew (bippity boppity, bippity boppity)
I′m fightin', I′m fightin', I′m fightin' these feelings for you
I'm trying to hide it but I can′t deny it, it is true
You′re turnin' my heart into bippity boppity ew
You′re turnin' my heart into
Turnin′ my heart into
Turnin' my heart into bippity boppity ew
Bippity boppity ew (ew, ew)
Ew (ew, ew)
Ew (ew, ew)
Ew (ew, ew)
Uuuuh-uuuuh-uuuuh
Could it be these feelings that I′m feeling? (Huh)
They are not really right and they're not true (huh)
Instead it is the dark playing with my heart
Turning my mind into bippity boppity ew
In Emily Deahl's song "Ew", the singer is expressing her emotions toward someone that she is trying to fight off. She acknowledges that her feelings may not be "right" but they are "true". She is constantly consumed by these emotions, which turn her heart into "bippity boppity ew". The phrase "bippity boppity ew" may be used to describe the unpleasantness of these emotions. In the second verse, the singer wishes that she were "lying on the moon", and compares her struggle to reach her love interest to "reach[ing] out for the stars", implying that it is an impossible task. She fears that if she does not keep running from these feelings, they will completely overtake her and turn her heart into "bippity boppity ew". In the bridge, the singer questions the nature of her feelings, wondering if they could be a product of the dark forces playing with her heart.
Overall, the lyrics of "Ew" explore the internal struggle of wanting someone but trying to resist the attraction. The use of the phrase "bippity boppity ew" adds a whimsical and almost childlike element to the song, contrasting with the serious and emotional subject matter.
