Hey Jude
Empowering Wisdom: Transforming Sadness into Strength
Lyrics
Hey Jude, don't make it bad
Encouragement to Jude to not dwell on negative feelings or situations
Take a sad song and make it better
Suggesting that Jude can improve a sad situation by a positive outlook
Remember to let her into your heart,
Advising Jude to open his heart to someone important
Then you can start to make it better.
Once Jude embraces the advice, positive changes can begin
Hey Jude, don't be afraid
Urging Jude not to fear and to pursue the person he desires
You were made to go out and get her
Highlighting the importance of actively pursuing the desired person
The minute you let her under your skin,
Encouraging emotional vulnerability by letting the person under Jude's skin
Then you begin to make it better
Suggesting that opening up emotionally leads to improvement
And anytime you feel the pain, hey Jude, refrain,
Advising Jude to avoid unnecessary pain and burden
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders
Discouraging Jude from carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders
For well you know that it's a fool who plays it cool
Warning against pretending to be indifferent, as it only makes things worse
By making his world a little colder
Suggesting that indifference makes the world colder and less compassionate
Hey Jude, don't let me down
Expressing a plea to Jude not to disappoint or fail
You have found her, now go and get her
Reiterating the importance of pursuing the desired person
Remember to let her into your heart,
Recalling the advice to let the person into Jude's heart for positive change
Then you can start to make it better
Re-emphasizing that positive change starts with emotional openness
So let it out and let it in, hey Jude, begin
Encouraging Jude to express his emotions and welcome them
You're waiting for someone to perform with
Acknowledging the desire for a companion or collaborator
And don't you know that it's just you, hey Jude, you'll do
Asserting that Jude himself is capable and sufficient for the task
The movement you need is on your shoulder
Implying that the solution is within Jude, suggesting self-reliance
Hey Jude, don't make it bad
Repeating the initial encouragement not to dwell on negativity
Take a sad song and make it better
Reiterating the transformative power of positive action on sad situations
Remember to let her under your skin,
Encouraging emotional openness as a key to positive change
Then you'll begin to make it
Stressing that positive change begins with emotional vulnerability
Better better better better better better, (make it Jude) ooh
Repeated emphasis on making things better through positive actions
Na na na nananana, nananana, hey Jude (Repeat)
Na na na repetition, serving as a musical break or sing-along
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Expressing affirmation or agreement with the preceding message
Ju- Jude-y Jude-y Jude-y Jude-y Jude-y oow-wow
Playful repetition of "Jude-y," perhaps as a term of endearment
