JUDGEMENT DAY
Army of Lovers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

On judgment day
I will get back on you
Naked to the bone
You will stand alone

On judgment day
I will get my revenge
Driving you to tears
After wasted years
Without me

I can't recall the day we met
I forced it out my brain
You're locked up in your obliette
You're doomed to live in pain

We had a chance to get things right
Mistake after mistake
Where once I saw a halo bright
I sense a fur of fake

A mirror waits before the throne
The price you pay for fame
The day you face a frightening freak
The night you go insane

On judgment day
I will get back on you
Naked to the bone
You will stand alone

On judgment day
I will get my revenge
Driving you to tears
After wasted years
Without me

Your head goes well with plastic bags
Becomes you when you scream
Predictable a loser's tag
Goes perfect with your theme

We had a chance to get things right
Mistake after mistake
Where once I saw a halo bright
I sense a fur of fake

A mirror waits before the throne
The price you pay for fame
The day you face a frightening freak
The night you go insane

On judgment day
I will get back on you
Naked to the bone
You will stand alone

On judgment day
I will get my revenge
Driving you to tears
After wasted years
Without me

Shema Israel
Adonai eroheino
Adonai echad
Shema Israel

On judgment day
I will get back on you
Naked to the bone
You will stand alone

On judgment day
I will get my revenge
Driving you to tears




After wasted years
Without me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Army of Lovers' "Judgment Day" carry a strong message of revenge towards someone who has wronged the singer. The singer is looking forward to the day of judgment when they will finally get back at their adversary. The first verse states that on this day, the singer will see their opponent "naked to the bone" standing alone while they exact their revenge. The second verse emphasizes the pain that the enemy will feel during their punishment, driving them to tears after years wasted without the singer. The third verse speaks to the theme of the fragility of fame, using imagery of a mirror waiting before a throne and a frightening freak to drive home the message that no one is invincible.


The reference to Shema Israel, a Jewish prayer often recited at times of distress or death, can be interpreted as an appeal for divine justice. The singer may be facing a situation where emotional or material justice seems impossible, and is looking to a higher power for help. The overall tone of the song is one of righteous anger and determination for retribution against someone who has hurt or betrayed them.
