Hands Up
Jens O. Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

It′s Friday night and everybody's in the place
To get it right, to face the booming bass
And let me see all your hands up in the air, yeah

Forget your troubles, your worries of the week
And keep on dancing, together cheek to cheek
And live your life like you just don′t even care
Yeah!

Let me see your hands up in the air
Wave 'em like you just don't care
Moving all around, dap dap du do da dap
Hands up, everywhere
Shake your hips like Fred Astaire
Jumping all around dap dap du do da dap

Hands up in the air
Wave ′em like you just don′t care
Moving all around, dap dap du do da dap
Hands up, everywhere
Shake your hips like Fred Astaire
Jumping all around dap dap du do da dap

Let me see your hands up in the air

The next night, the daylight passed away
But no doubt, the party's here to stay
We keep on rocking, no matter what they say, yeah

Let me see your hands up in the air
Wave ′em like you just don't care
Moving all around, dap dap du do da dap
Hands up, everywhere
Shake your hips like Fred Astaire
Jumping all around dap dap du do da dap

Hands up in the air
Wave ′em like you just don't care
Moving all around, dap dap du do da dap
Hands up, everywhere
Shake your hips like Fred Astaire
Jumping all around dap dap du do da dap

So everybody in the club
Just let me see your hands up in the air
And wave ′em like you just don't care
Are you ready?
Are you ready?

Let me see your hands up in the air
Let me see your hands up in the air

Let me see your hands up

Overall Meaning

It encourages its listeners to forget their worries and dance their weeknight away with new and old friends. It's almost a calling to shut off the outside world and enjoy the company of everyone who has turned up to do the same. When the daylight fades away, the party is still going on, and nothing will stop these people from letting loose.

The chorus is a call to action that invites everybody in the club to raise their hands high in the air and wave them around like they don't care.

The song mentions that nothing can stop the party, creating an ambiance of freedom, adventure, and beauty in the moment for the audience.

Overall, "Hands Up" is a genuinely joyful, lighthearted song with an infectious beat that will have you marching and waving your hands to the rhythm. Jens O has crafted a fun song with a relatively simple message that invites its audience to let their guards down and enjoy life once in a while, even if that "while" happens to be a Friday night at a club.

Español letra

Es viernes por la noche y todo el mundo está en el lugar Para hacer lo correcto, para hacer frente a los bajos en auge Y déjame ver todas tus manos en el aire, sí Olvídate de tus problemas, tus preocupaciones de la semana Y seguir bailando, juntos de mejilla a mejilla Y vivir tu vida como si simplemente no te importa, sí ¡Sí! Déjame ver tus manos en el aire Ola como si no te importaran Moviéndose por todas partes, dap dap du do da dap Manos arriba en todas partes Sacude las caderas como Fred Astaire Saltando por todos lados [X2] Déjame ver tus manos en el aire Déjame ver tus manos arriba La noche siguiente, la luz del día falleció Pero sin duda, la fiesta está aquí para quedarse Seguimos balanceándose, no importa lo que digan, sí Déjame ver tus manos en el aire Ola como si no te importaran Moviéndose por todas partes, dap dap du do da dap Manos arriba en todas partes Sacude las caderas como Fred Astaire Saltando por todos lados [X2] Así que todo el mundo en el club Solo déjame ver tus manos en el aire Y las olas como si no te importaran ¿Estás listo? ¡Vamos! ¿Estás listo? Déjame ver tus manos en el aire [x2] Déjame ver tus manos arriba
