(Laughs) Dance

Backdoor, cracked we don't need a key
We get in for free, no V.I.P. sleaze
Drink that Kool-Aid, follow my lead
Now you're one of us, you're coming with me

It's time to kill the lights and shut the DJ down
This place about to, tonight we're taking over
No one's getting out

This place about to blow, blow
This place about to blow, blow
This place about to blow, blow
This place about to blow, blow
This place about to

Now what, what? We're taking control
We get what we want, we do what you don't
Dirt and glitter cover the floor
We're pretty and sick, we're young and we're bored

It's time to lose your mind and let the crazy out
This place about to, tonight we're taking names
'Cause we don't mess around

This place about to blow, blow
This place about to blow, blow
This place about to blow, blow
This place about to blow, blow
This place about to

Go insane, go insane
Throw some glitter, make it rain on him
Let me see them hands
Let me, let me see them hands

Go insane, go insane
Throw some glitter, make it rain on him
Let me see them hands
Let me, let me see them hands

We are taking over, blow
Get used to it, blow

This place about to blow, blow
This place about to blow, blow
This place about to blow, blow
This place about to blow, blow
This place about to blow

    General Comment:According to Kesha "I love that I say ‘we’re taking over’ in it because my fans and me have started a cult. We’re misfits of society but we’ve banded together and we’re starting a revolution. We are taking over. So get used to it."

    The song is telling the story of a cult taking over an elite club. But it's really a dark fantasy about underdogs and misfits getting the better of people who bully or mistreat them. It's sounds really creepy on her Deconstructed EP.

    Song Meaning:This song is extremely deep when you think about it like this.

    This music video is about humanity and an alternate civilization or "race" warning Earth. Maybe I'm way off but I'm gonna keep thinking this. Look at the lyrics.
    "Drink that Kool-Aid/follow my lead/Now you're one of us/You're coming with me.
    Doesn't that sound like some sort of initiation? (Note: Don't think I'm talking about Illuminati, because that's bullsh*t.)
    "It's time to kill the lights and shut the DJ down." I believe that means that this group of people is telling humanity to either quiet down or escape. Because if we don't escape: "Tonight, WE'RE taking over/No one's getting out/This place about to blow, blow x 4." It could also mean that humanity is set for self-destruct the way we're running things. Any minute, this world will fall apart because of us.
    "Now what? We're taking control...We're pretty + sick/We're young + we're bored."
    "Young and bored" is an extremely important line because Kesha is referring to the idiocy of teenagers today and how they're not gonna get anywhere. In fact, they just might BLOW us all up. Look at the almost pointless music video and think about how stupid she sounds at the beginning: it's pointless babbling just look most of the things we say today. The music video is one major farce.

    At the same time, this video could mean the exact opposite, though. The idiots could be the repressed animals. In the beginning of the music video when Kesha was talking about how she became a member of Parliament, she was making fun of politicians and how corrupt and politically awful the world is. Why is why we need to just kick back and "Go insane/throw some glitter/make it rain."

    I love Ke$ha. And whether or not the song was that complex or not, I think any party song is a good party song. There's never a wrong time to be cheered up by a good music hook.

    General Comment:My uncle works for the IRS, and he has information that other people don't. First off, Ke$ha's real name is Kesha Rose Sebert. But because she is an ILLUMINATI SLAVE (like Katy Perry), she was required to change her name to incorporate masonic symbols (i.e., dollor sign).

    She is in HUGE DEBT to club promoters in Ibiza and was contractually required to release this song, despite it's obvious terrorist implications (which she is actually opposed to). Because she oppose's the song's message, she will NEVER perform it live or on MTV.

    Wake up, people: "blow" is not a reference to BJ or illegal drug, it is a reference to explosions. The glitter on the hands is gun powder obviously, and the club represents Western "decadence". They are "young and bored" i.e., like Arab terrorists. They take over the club, i.e., our Western values, lock us in , "kill" the lights (gee, I wonder if the word "kill" there has sinister implications LOL), and then blow up our civilization.

    It is obvious, and fortunately the IRS knows about it. But again the good news is that Ke$ha, or should i say Kesha Rose Sebert LOL, is oppposed to the message, which is why you were NEVER hear her perform this song live or on TV.
