OUT OUT
Joel Corry Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Out, out for the night

Why am I on my own on a Friday night?
My friends are on my phone, they keep blowin' up my line (hello)
Send me your location, the Uber's outside (yeah)
Runnin' out of time

If we're going out, out for the night

I'ma meet you down on the floor
Oh, tell me
So, tell me when you're out, out for the night
We can get it started, let's go, oh
Just watch me dance

Just watch me
Watch me, watch me, watch me

Why am I on my own on a Saturday night? (Why?)
Send me your location, the Uber's outside (where you at?)
Friends all in the bathroom, so I cut through the line
Runnin' out of time

If we're going out, out for the night
I'ma meet you down on the floor
Oh, tell me
So, tell me when you're out, out for the night
We can get it started, let's go, oh
Just watch me dance

Just watch me
Watch me, watch me, watch me
Ay, ay-ay, ay-ay-ay-ay
Ay, ay-ay, tonight we're goin' out, out
Ay, ay-ay, ay-ay-ay-ay
Ay, ay-ay, tonight we're goin' out, out

Run it back, I'm so saditty, super picky
Who gon' please this pretty kitty?
Got baddies with me, tanned and tipsy
Pass the concealer, gotta hide the hicky
Ooh, DJ, run it back (run it back)
Tryna go up, where balloon girl at? (Where she at?)
Double cup love, in the club, pitch black
Bubblegum butt, come and chew this ass

Ay, ay-ay, ay-ay-ay-ay
Ay, ay-ay, tonight we're goin' out, out
Ay, ay-ay, ay-ay-ay-ay
Ay, ay-ay, tonight we're goin' out, out

Hi, I'm Charli, baby (baby, baby)
Tonight, we're goin' out, out

Just watch me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Joel Corry & Jax Jones's song OUT OUT are about the excitement of going out on a Friday or Saturday night. The singer questions why they are alone on a Friday night while their friends keep messaging them to join them. They then receive a message to send their location for an Uber to pick them up, realizing that they are running out of time to get ready. The singer expresses the desire to meet their friends on the dance floor and get the party started. On a Saturday night, the singer again finds themselves alone and in need of an Uber. Upon arriving at their destination, they cut through the line to join their friends who are in the bathroom. The song features a guest verse from Charli XCX, with rapped lines about being picky and having baddies with her.

The lyrics paint a picture of the excitement and urgency surrounding a night out with friends. The repetition of "out, out" emphasizes the desire to leave one's current situation and go out into the night. The mention of an Uber and running out of time adds to the urgency of the situation. The chorus of "just watch me dance" holds a sense of confidence and enjoyment in the act of dancing, which is the primary motive for going out in the first place.
