Bobby
The Pesos Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Baby
Hard life
What's the greatest now
I wake up, just to know you're there
I go out, owe the world with doubt
Because it's such a modern world
You make me feel alright
You make me feel okay
Tonight
Baby
You make me
You make me feel alright
You make me feel alright
Nobody like you, you break me- in two
And i'm still in love with you
Because it's such a modern world
You make me feel alright




You make me feel okay
Tonight

Overall Meaning

The Pesos's song "Bobby" is a melancholic yet hopeful love song about finding solace in modern times. The opening lines of "Baby, hard life, what's the greatest now" suggest a struggle with the hardships of life, but the following lines reveal that the singer finds comfort in the presence of their loved one: "I wake up, just to know you're there / I go out, owe the world with doubt." The modern world is mentioned multiple times, perhaps indicating a sense of isolation in a society that values individualism and material success. However, the chorus offers a mesage of hope, as the singer says that their partner makes them feel "alright" and "okay" despite the challenges around them.


The repeated phrase "you make me feel alright / you make me feel okay" highlights the importance of finding emotional support in a relationship. Despite the difficulties faced by the singer, they still feel love for their partner even though "nobody like you, you break me in two." The song ends on a note of uncertainty with the final line "Tonight." This could suggest that the singer is unsure of what the future holds but can still find solace for now in the presence of their loved one.
