Uh, where the hell my phone? Where the hell my phone?
Where the hell my, where the hell my phone, huh?
How I'm 'posed to get home?
Uh, where the hell my phone? Where the hell my phone?
Where the hell my, where the hell my phone, huh?
How I'm 'posed to get home?

Okay, 2:15 and the lights come on, where my phone?
Looking around like where my phone?
Looking where my homies went
Where the hell my homies went?
Where the hell my homies went?
How I'm 'posed to get home?
How I'm 'posed to get home?
Walking home with my feet on sore
Walking home with my feet on sore
What the hell these Louboutins for?
What the hell these Louboutins for?
Walking home and it's damn near four
Walking home and it's damn near four
What the hell these Louboutins for?
What the hell these Louboutins for?
Yeah, I was getting it, looking real cute
Up in the club, man, how do you do?
Hair ain't a don't, hair is a do
Ooh, he fine! What's up wit' you?

Where the hell my phone? Where the hell my phone?
Where the hell my, where the hell my phone, huh?
How I'm 'posed to get home?
Uh, where the hell my phone? Where the hell my phone?
Where the hell my, where the hell my phone, huh?
How I'm 'posed to get home? okay

Ooh, unlock that, all up in my contacts
Hoo, unlock that, all up in my contacts
Hoo, unlock that, all up in my contacts
Hoo, unlock that, all up in my contacts
Oh my god, why? (uh yeah, haha)

Yeah, and I seen that boy
Looked at me, but I got annoyed
'Cause he bought me a drink for a dolla'
Boy came over and he wanted to holla' (yup)
Boy came over and he wanted to holla' (yup)
Boy came over and he wanted to holla' (yup)
My song came on, so I hit the dance floor
Man I lost my, mmm, phone
Walking home with my feet on sore
Walking home with my feet on sore
What the hell these Louboutins for?
What the hell these Louboutins for?
Walking home and it's damn near four
Walking home and it's damn near four
What the hell these Louboutins for?
I don't know where I'm going

Where the hell my phone? Where the hell my phone?
Where the hell my, where the hell my phone, huh?
How I'm 'posed to get home?
Uh, where the hell my phone? Where the hell my phone?
Where the hell my, where the hell my phone, huh?
How I'm 'posed to get home? Uh

Ooh, unlock that, all up in my contacts
Hoo, unlock that, all up in my contacts
Hoo, unlock that, all up in my contacts
Hoo, unlock that, all up in my contacts
Ooh, unlock that, all up in my contacts
Hoo, unlock that, all up in my contacts
Hoo, unlock that, all up in my contacts
Hoo, unlock that, all up in my contacts

Where the hell my phone? Where the hell my phone?

Uh, where the hell my phone? Where the hell my phone?
Where the hell my, where the hell my phone, huh?




How I'm 'posed to get
But you're holding it, oh

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Lizzo's song "Phone" express the frustration and anxiety of losing one's phone at a party or a club. Lizzo starts the song by asking where her phone is, and questioning how she'll get home without it. She relays the experience of being at a club, looking for her phone and her friends but feeling lost and alone. She feels the pain in her feet from walking home in high heels, questioning why she bothered wearing them in the first place. The second half of the song switches the tone to the relief of finding her phone, which was actually in her hand the whole time. She laughs at herself for not realizing this sooner and wondering why she was so worked up about losing it in the first place.
