Oh Hush! Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

C'mon!

I knew that when you left me it was over
Not just for us, for the whole damn world
It wasn't pretty, I never knew what hit me
But I'm pretty sure you're much more than a girl

(Use your power, set us free

Stomp 'em out, like you did to me)

Baby Baby Baby
Show 'em how you like it
Baby Baby Baby
They'll never stand a chance chance chance
Against your glance

Ya know you left me desperate and defeated
I'm slowly getting over it day by day
Now could you do us all a favor
Be a hero and blow 'em all away

(Use your power, set us free
Stomp 'em out, like you did to me)

Baby Baby Baby
Show 'em how you like it
Baby Baby Baby
They'll never stand a chance chance chance

Baby Baby Baby
Show 'em how you like it
Baby, Baby, Baby
Here's your chance chance chance
To do your glance

Ba Ba Ba, Baby Baby Baby
Show 'em how you like it
Ba Ba Ba, Baby Baby Baby
They'll never stand a chance chance chance

Baby Baby Baby
Show 'em how you like it
Baby Baby Baby
They'll never stand a chance chance chance

Baby, Baby, Baby
Show 'em how you like it
Baby, Baby, Baby
They'll never stand a chance chance chance
Against your glance

Ba Ba Ba, Baby Baby Baby
Baby Baby Baby

The first verse of Oh Hush!'s song "Baby Baby Baby" presents a scene of heartbreak and confusion. The singer acknowledges that their partner has left them, and that it's over not just for them, but for the world. This implies that the relationship was so significant that its end has impacts far beyond the singer's personal life. The singer is shocked by the breakup and is struggling to make sense of what happened. However, despite the confusion, the singer acknowledges that their ex-partner is a powerful force, someone who is "much more than a girl." This creates a sense of admiration and perhaps even reverence for the ex-partner, despite their heartbreak.

The second verse sees the singer starting to pick up the pieces of their life. They admit that they were left "desperate and defeated," which indicates that the breakup was crippling. However, the singer emphasizes that they are slowly starting to move on, day by day. They then offer their ex-partner an opportunity to be a hero, a chance to "blow 'em all away." It's unclear who the "them" in this lyric refers to - it could be anyone who has wronged the singer or the ex-partner in some way. Regardless, the ex-partner is being offered a chance to use their power to bring about change.

Overall, "Baby Baby Baby" appears to be a song about the power of love and heartbreak. It acknowledges that relationships can have a far-reaching impact, and it portrays the ex-partner as a strong and powerful figure who is capable of making a difference in the world.
