Katy Perry - Chained To The Rhythm songtekst

Over deze songtekst:

Voor wie het niet weet.... Skip Marley is de kleinzoon van de beroemde Bob Marley.

In de video bezoekt Kate het futuristische thema park Utopia. De video is gemaakt in het thema park Six Flags Magic Mountain. Dat park vind je ten noorden van Los Angeles.

Het lied gaat over het bewustzijn van je omgeving. Maar het lied is ook een politiek statement. En dat is niet verwonderlijk aangezien Katy erg geinteresseerd is in politiek. Zij steunde Hillary Clinton in de Amerikaanse verkiezingen van 2016. Het politieke statement is: So comfortable, we're living in a bubble, bubble, so comfortable, we cannot see the trouble, trouble. Skip Marley is feller als hij zingt: The truth they feed is feeble as so many times before
They greed over the people, they stumbling and fumbling and we about to riot. They woke up, they woke up the lions.

In het Nederlands.. De waarheid die ze ons voeren is zwak zoals zo vaak. De hebzucht overheerst de mensen, struikelend en stuntelig en we staan op het punt in opstand te komen. Ze hebben wakker gemaakt, ze hebben de leeuwen wakker gemaakt.

Met andere woorden...we leven voor ons zelf en bekommeren ons nauwelijks om wat er om ons heen gebeurd. We zijn horende doof en ziende blind voor de problemen die er zijn. Laat we weer naar elkaar luisteren. Per slot van rekening zijn we toch allemaal mensen met (dezelfde) gevoelens en verlangens.

Are we crazy?
Living our lives through a lens
Trapped in our white picket fence
Like ornaments
So comfortable, we're living in a bubble, bubble
So comfortable, we cannot see the trouble, trouble

Aren't you lonely?
Up there in Utopia
Where nothing will ever be enough
Happily numb
So comfortable, we're living in a bubble, bubble
So comfortable, we cannot see the trouble, trouble

(Aha)
So put your rose-colored glasses on
And party on

Turn it up, it's your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie, yeah
We think we're free (aha)
Drink, this one's on me
We're all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm
To the rhythm

Turn it up, it's your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie, yeah
We think we're free (aha)
Drink, this one's on me
We're all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm
To the rhythm

Are we tone deaf?
Keep sweeping it under the mat
Thought we could do better than that
I hope we can
So comfortable, we're living in a bubble, bubble
So comfortable, we cannot see the trouble, trouble

(Aha)
So put your rose-colored glasses on
And party on

Turn it up, it's your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie, yeah
We think we're free (aha)
Drink, this one's on me
We're all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm
To the rhythm

Turn it up, it's your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie, yeah
We think we're free (aha)
Drink, this one's on me
We're all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm
To the rhythm

[Skip Marley:]
It is my desire
Break down the walls to connect, inspire, ay
Up in your high place, liars
Time is ticking for the empire
The truth they feed is feeble
As so many times before
They greed over the people
They stumbling and fumbling
And we about to riot
They woke up, they woke up the lions
(Woo!)

Turn it up, it's your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Turn it up (turn it up, turn it up), keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie (like a wasted zombie), yeah
We think we're free (aha)
Drink, this one's on me
We're all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm
To the rhythm

It goes on and on and on
It goes on and on and on
It goes on and on and on
'Cause we're all chained to the rhythm
