Eiffel 65 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
making you forget where you're from and what's behind.
Isn't it suspicious how the world is now your friend,
getting in return 1.000 more than what you could ever send.
Oh yeah
we live in a bubble baby.
A bubble's not reality.
Nothing in a bubble, is the way it's supposed to be,
and when it blows you'll hit the ground.
Oh yeah
the bubble's are not reality but it's inside your mind,
making you forget where you're from and what's behind.
Isn't it suspicious how the world is now your friend,
getting in return 1.000 more than what you could ever send.
The bubble doesn't make you but it's you that makes the bubble,
and you better try to remember that it's in your head.
The bubble is a very tricky thing all full of type and it is not easy
to try to see the way things are they'll always be.
We live in a bubble baby.
A bubble's not reality.
You gotta have a look outside.
Nothing in a bubble, is the way it's supposed to be,
and when it blows you'll hit the ground.
We live in a bubble baby.
But it's not the place to be.
Cause it's a place of lies and hype.
Don't believe the bubble cause it's nothing but a dream,
and when it blows you'll be alone.
Oh yeah
living in the city
living for the go
one for the money
two for the show.
I spend a lot of cash
and i buy a new house
everybody just a watch
while me drive my big car.
I have everything
and nothing is missing
spending all my time
hugging and kissing.
Sleeping in the most
expensive hotels
hanging out with the most
beautiful girls.
Everywhere i go people just follow me.
I'm famous, and i'm on every screen.
I travel around the world in my private jet.
I see my face in every magazine.
My nick name is vip.
Life has become everything that i see.
I got my name up in the stars.
Famous all over from here straight to mars.
In Eiffel 65's song "Living in a Bubble", the lyrics discuss living in a reality that is not a real representation of the world. The "bubble" refers to the illusion created in one's mind by fame and fortune, where everything seems perfect and friends seem to be everywhere, but in reality, it is a false representation of the world. The lyrics warn about how dangerous this "bubble" can be, making you forget where you come from and what's important in life. The world becomes your friend, but you get more than you can ever send, which is suspicious and unreal.
The lyrics explain that it's not the bubble that makes you but you that makes the bubble, and you should remember that it's in your head. However, it is not easy to see things the way they are because the bubble is full of hype and lies. The song implies that living in such a "bubble" is not the place to be because it's nothing but a dream, and when it's burst, you'll be alone. The second part of the song discusses the experiences that fame and fortune bring, traveling the world in private jets, staying in expensive hotels, hanging out with the most beautiful girls, and being famous on every screen.
Overall, the lyrics suggest that being famous and living in a bubble of perfection may seem like a dream come true, but it's not a reality. The warning is to be careful about what you believe and where you place your value as it can lead to illusions that can be detrimental.
