Hey There!
The Rat Pack Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey there, you with the stars in your eyes
Love never made a fool of you, you used to be too wise

Hey there, you on that high flying cloud
Though she won't throw a crumb to you
You think someday she'll come to you

Better forget her, her with her nose in the air

She has you dancing on a string
break it and she won't care

Won't you take this advice I hand you like a brother
Or are you not seeing things too clear?
Are you too much in love to hear?
Is it all going in one ear and out the other?

Better forget her, her with her nose in the air
She has you dancing on a string
break it and she won't care

Won't you take this advice I hand you like a brother
Or are you not seeing things too clear?

Are you too much in love to hear?
Is it all going in one ear and out the other?

Overall Meaning

The Rat Pack's "Hey There!" is a heart-wrenching ballad about unrequited love. The lyrics are addressed to someone who is infatuated with a woman who doesn't reciprocate his feelings. The singer acknowledges that the person he is addressing is wise and not easily fooled, but he is worried that love has blinded this person to the reality of their situation. The subject is so in love with this woman that he's willing to endure any hardship, waiting for her to come around, despite her lack of interest.

The singer offers the advice to forget her, but it seems his words are falling on deaf ears. The subject's love is so strong that it's prevented him from realizing the truth. The singer warns that if the person continues to be strung along by this woman, she will continue to keep him dancing on a string, without a care in the world for his feelings.

Overall, "Hey There!" is a poignant song about the power of love and the pain that it can bring. The lyrics are a reminder that sometimes the best thing you can do is to let go and move on, even when it seems impossible.
