Uber Friend is the second single from Phillip’s long-awaited sophomore album, Break Loose. Uber Friend was inspired during the Covid-19 lockdown when Phillip rarely left his house and relied on Uber Eats and other food delivery services for his meals. This is a sentimental song about Phillip’s friendship with a particular Uber Eats driver.
Lyrics:
One more towel wipe across my head
I’ll tell you what’s going down
Got my glucose meter and my stretch pants too
I open Uber Eats and go to town
I place my order and I hit submit
And check the wait time…45 minutes
CHORUS
I track his route on GPS
There’s nose prints on the window glass
My tummy is turning but I can’t tell
If it’s the butterflies or that I haven’t eaten since twelve
He’s got my food in hand
Here comes my Uber Friend
A pepperoni pizza and a side of hot wings
A chimichanga dinner with chips!
It won’t be long before my buddy arrives
And my hearty feast meets my lips
I check my order status to see if it’s time
But it’s been a minute
And my stomach is whining
CHORUS
I track his route on GPS
There’s nose prints on the window glass
My tummy is turning but I can’t tell
If it’s the butterflies or that I haven’t eaten since twelve
He’s got my food in hand
Here comes my Uber Friend
BRIDGE
We’ve gotten rather close you see
There’s details that he knows of me
Details that he says he did not need
He fills my every need
Bringing dinner, that’s the deed!
He’s lucky that’s me he feeds
With what I order you should see the fees!
CHORUS
I track his route on GPS
There’s nose prints on the window glass
My tummy is turning but I can’t tell
If it’s the butterflies or that I haven’t eaten since twelve
He’s got my food in hand
You’d think that he’s Superman
He’s bringing soup and bread
Here comes my Uber Friend
It’s my Uber Friend
