Uh Huh
Royal Republic Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Uh huh
Uh
I'm on a plane
I get around
Around the sky
Don't shoot me down
One more time
I'm out of style
She said, 'no way are you okay'
And I said:
Uh
Uh huh
Uh
I take my time
I get in line
She said, 'we're through'
I said, 'that's cool'
Put down your guns
Let's have some fun
She said, 'no way are you okay'
And I said:
What's done is done
She said, 'no way are you okay'
And I said
I'm on a plane
I get around
Around the sky
Don't shoot me down
Don't shoot me down
Don't shoot me down
The lyrics of Royal Republic's song Uh Huh seem to convey the theme of being carefree and living life to the fullest. The song begins with the singer stating that he is on a plane and likes to travel around the sky, hoping he doesn't get shot down. The line may connote the idea of taking risks in life and hoping not to face any consequences.
The next set of lyrics highlight a phase in the singer's life where they feel like they're out of style and their girlfriend breaks up with them. However, the singer doesn't seem to care and responds casually by saying that it's cool they're through. The lyrics further encapsulate the essence of living in the moment, having fun, and not worrying about the consequences of their actions.
Overall, the song conveys the idea of living life in a carefree and spontaneous manner, taking risks and not worrying about the outcomes. The repetitive use of the phrase 'Uh Huh' seems to reiterate this point and adds an interesting rhythmic element to the song.
