The song "Uh Huh" by Jade Bird is about a girl who is manipulating a guy she is with by leading him on and making him believe that she loves him. The lyrics suggest that she is cheating on him with her boss, and even though he knows something is not right, he chooses to ignore it because he loves her. Throughout the song, Jade Bird describes how the girl puts on makeup and leaves for work, only to come back late and text her partner that she will be back soon. She asks him if he loves her, and he nods and says "Uh huh" even though he knows deep down that there is something suspicious about their relationship. The chorus of the song emphasizes how the girl has the guy wrapped around her finger and how she sees him as nothing more than a toy. She is in control of the relationship and uses it to her advantage. Jade Bird also points out how the guy is too blind to see that the girl is doing to him the same thing that he did to her. In the end, she acknowledges that it is not her place to interfere in their relationship and says that if he thinks the girl is good, he should be told otherwise. Overall, "Uh Huh" is a cautionary tale about the dangers of falling for someone who may not have your best interests at heart and how love can blind you to the truth.
