Lyrics
Ooo-aaa, ooo-aaa
When did you stop playin’ our game?
I protect you from sunshine snow or rain,
I block my ears,
You tryin’ to say that you’re tired of us,
We gotta discuss.
And I’m not the type,
to beg you to listen.
You hear what you hear,
but that ain’t my issue.
I know you don’t want me anymore,
But the thought of you at my door…
You still give me heebiejeebies
Maybe we could meet at a café?
We’ll fly to paris,
And talk over coffee.
You say it’s too late,
“This ain’t a fairy-tale”
Your ego’s high,
Tellin’ me get my mind straight.
My hearts tired but my mind is racing.
You don’t want me, and my heart is breaking.
Ooo-aaa, ooo-aaa
I know you don’t want me anymore, but the thought of you at my door…
Ooo-aaa/ you still, give me
Uh huh, you still, ba da da da da da da
My hearts tired but my mind is racing,
You don’t want me, and my heart is breaking.
You still, give me.
You still, give me.
You still, give me, heebiejeebieebies.
Abi Muir’s “Heebiejeebies” is a sleek, emotionally charged alt-pop track with a modern retro edge. Driven by shimmering synths, syncopated rhythms, and hypnotic vocal hooks, the song captures the disorienting emotional whiplash of a love that’s clearly over, yet still lingers under the skin.
Muir’s breathy delivery and layered harmonies float over a moody, groove-laced production, creating a sonic atmosphere that feels both dreamlike and restless.
Musically, “Heebiejeebies” blends laid-back R&B influences with indie pop stylings, laced with a slight Parisian flair in its lyrical escapism. The “ooo-aaa” vocal motif adds a haunting texture, evoking the surreal disconnect between head and heart.
There’s a bittersweet contradiction throughout: the calm surface of the song contrasts sharply with the turmoil underneath, echoing the push-pull of post-breakup confusion.
Ultimately, “Heebiejeebies” is a bittersweet, stylish lament that captures the strange way someone can still haunt you, even when you know it’s over. It’s equal parts cool, catchy, and quietly devastating.
