Royals Parody
Bart Baker Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I have pubic hair on my head.
Iโm so boring but I act like this on purpose so rebellious teens can relate to me
[Lorde] And even though this song is a huge hit and had great potential
I made a vid that is painfully dull
I donโt care you canโt tell but I just shat my jeans
And now Iโm gonna list stuff that I think all rich black people love
[Black Guy] Aw hell no!
You might as well say fried chicken also!
[Lorde] Yes my lyrics seem racist. [Black Guy] (Racist)
But I donโt give a fuck hip hop culture totally sucks
Guys stop beating each other up
[Guy 1] But this vid is so awful (awful)[Guy 2] and we live in poverty, please just kill me!
No me!
No me!
No me!
[Lorde] Calm down guys watch some TV.
[Guy 1] Seriously!
[Guy 2] We donโt have fuckin cable!
[Lorde] All of my animals are dead. (Couldn't take it. You were 2 scary.)
They killed themselves because I am a zombie.
And every one who says Iโm racist I swear that Iโm not.
[Lorde] I just live with skinheads
And now Iโm gonna say more random luxurious stuff I hate
Running water, ass hygiene, and first aid
I donโt care.
Iโm not getting tetanus in my dreams.
Even though this song hit number one and I have tons of cash
I would rather pretend I need food stamps
[Homeless Guy] You fake bitch now how the hell am I supposed to eat?
[Lorde] All rich people can suck it. (suck it)
I am such a hypocrite even though now I am loaded.
Iโm gonna act impoverished
Play this shit on repeat (repeat)
If you want to hate me and maybe youโll see (youโll see) (youโll see) (youโll see) how terrible I can be
In Bart Baker's parody of "Royals," the lyrics satirize Lorde's persona and image. In the song, Lorde is portrayed as a boring, rebellious teenager who goes against the norm by acting impoverished, even though she is now loaded with cash thanks to her hit song. She claims to not care about being successful but is still obsessed with luxury items, like gold teeth, and going to clubs. While insisting that she is not racist, Lorde disregards hip hop culture and says things that might be seen as offensive to black people.
The song highlights the fakeness of some pop stars and the way they try to create an image that is the opposite of what they truly are. Lorde is criticized for being boring, causing her animals to die, and pretending to be poor when she is rich. The chorus of the song also calls out all rich people and how they can't relate to the everyday struggles of ordinary people.
