LADY GAGA

- Applause Lyrics

I stand here waiting
For you to bang the gong!
To crash the critic saying
''Is it right or is it wrong?''

If only fame had an I.V.
Baby could I bear
Being away from you
I found the vein, put it in here

I live for the applause, applause, applause
I live for the applause -plause
Live for the applause -plause
Live for the way that you cheer me and scream for me
The applause, applause, applause

Give me that thing that I love
(I'll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up make 'em touch, touch
(Make it real loud)
Give me that thing that I love
(I'll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up make 'em touch, touch
(Make it real loud)

A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
(Make it real loud)
Put your hands up make 'em touch
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
(Make it real loud)
Put your hands up make 'em touch

I've overheard your theory:
Nostalgia's for geeks
I guess sir, if you say so
Some of us just like to read

One second I'm a koons then
Suddenly the koons is me
Pop culture was in art
Now art's in pop culture, in me

I live for the applause, applause, applause
I live for the applause -plause
Live for the applause -plause
Live for the way that you cheer me and scream for me
The applause, applause, applause

Give me that thing that I love
(I'll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up make 'em touch
(Make it real loud)
Give me that thing that I love
(I'll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up make 'em touch
(Make it real loud)
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
(Make it real loud)
Put your hands up make 'em touch
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
(Make it real loud)
Put your hands up make 'em touch

Touch, touch
Touch, touch now

I live for the applause, applause, applause
I live for the applause -plause
Live for the applause -plause
Live for the way that you cheer me and scream for me
The applause, applause, applause

Give me that thing that I love
(I'll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up make 'em touch
(Make it real loud)
Give me that thing that I love
(I'll turn the lights out)
Put your hands up make 'em touch
(Make it real now!)

A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
(Make it real loud)
Put your hands up make 'em touch
A-P-P-L-A-U-S-E
(Make it real loud)
Put your hands up make 'em touch

A-R-T-P-O-P

What is the meaning behind Applause lyrics?


When it comes to the meaning of the lyrics, in her song 'Applause', Lady Gaga gets straight to the point of wanting to be recognized and validated by the public, which also brings to light the consuming character of fame and the often inevitable need for applause. The composition addresses the indistinct boundaries between art and popular culture while putting the artist's maturing in the music industry and the artist-fan relationship on display. The main idea of 'Applause' lyrics is a combination of celebration, happiness, becoming stronger, partying, and love. The song's message is a mix of fame and recognition as well as art and pop culture. It is already an indication of the stars and applause through the lyrics that the song might not be too appealing to the little ones. The absence of explicit violence, sex, and drugs references does not necessarily mean the lyrics are completely innocent since the context of seeking validation and the use of phrase 'turning the lights out' might still be interpreted as possessing a somewhat mature undertone. Thus, parental guidance is recommended.

It is just lady gaga saying that she sing because all she wants is all the cheering and clapping from her fans. It is sad though that she has gone to far in certain areas. I wish she would just wash off the makeup and fix her back to how it was, then put on clothes that she would wear around the house if she could. Though I am only 12 I think, no I know, that lady gaga is just doing this because she ran out of money, ideas, and hope for her music. Why doesn't she dress for herself and not for the fans. I really don't think that she has done one song where she is wearing clothes that we could find in our shops.
