Bulletproof
KIDZ BOP Kids Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Done that
Jumped around.
I'm having fun
Don't put me down.
I'll never let you sweep me off my feet.
I won't let you in again
My information is just not going in.
Burnin' bridges shore to shore.
I break away from something more.
I'm not turned on to love until it's cheap.
Been there.
Done that.
Jumped around.
I'm having fun
Don't put me down.
I'll never let you sweep me off my feet.
This time baby
I'll be bulletproof.
This time baby
I'll be bulletproof.
I won't let you turn around
And tell me now I'm much to proud.
To walk away from something when it's dead.
Do do do your dirty work.
Come out to play when you are hurt.
There's certain things that should be left unsaid.
Tic tic tic tic on the watch.
My life's too short for me to stop.
Oh baby your time is runnin' out.
I won't let you turn around
And tell me now I'm much to proud.
All you do is fill me up with doubt.
This time baby
I'll be bulletproof.
This time baby
I'll be bulletproof.
This time baby
I'll be bulletproof.
This time baby
I'll be bulletproof.
This time
I'll be
Bulletproof.
This time
I'll be
Bulletproof.
This time baby
I'll be bulletproof.
This time baby
I'll be bulletproof.
This time baby
I'll be bulletproof.
This time baby
I'll be bulletproof.
The song "Bulletproof" by La Roux that Kidz Bop covered seems to be about someone who has been hurt in the past, is guarded and determined not to let someone else hurt them again. The first verse describes the person's past experiences, how they have "Been there, done that" and "Jumped around" but are now having fun and don't want to be put down. They are also saying they won't let someone else sweep them off their feet, meaning they won't let themselves get too attached to someone who might hurt them.
The second verse refers to the person's present situation. They won't let someone else in again because their messages didn't get through before, meaning they were ignored or misunderstood. The person is burning bridges shore to shore because they don't want to be tied down to anyone or anything. The line "I'm not turned on to love until it's cheap" suggests that the person is not interested in love unless it's easy or convenient.
The chorus "This time baby, I'll be bulletproof" is repeated four times throughout the song and serves as a declaration of the person's newfound strength and resilience. The person is determined not to let anyone bring them down, not to let anyone make them doubt themselves, and to be strong enough to walk away from something when it's dead.
