Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Welcome to the jungle we've got fun and games
We got everything you want honey, we know the names
We are the people that can find whatever you may need
If you got the money honey we got your disease

In the jungle, welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your knnn knne knees, knees
I want to watch you bleed

Welcome to the jungle we take it day by day
If you want it you're gonna bleed but it's the price to pay
And you're a very sexy girl that's very hard to please
You can taste the bright lights but you won't get there for free
In the jungle welcome to the jungle
Feel my, my, my serpentine
Ooh, I want to hear you scream

Welcome to the jungle it gets worse here every day
Ya learn to live like an animal in the jungle where we play
If you hunger for what you see you'll take it eventually
You can have everything you want but you better not take it from me

In the jungle, welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your knnn knne knees, knees
I want to watch you bleed

And when you're high you never ever want to come down
So down, so down, so down, yeah

You know where you are?
You're down in the jungle baby, you're gonna dieee
In the jungle welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your knees, knees
In the jungle welcome to the jungle
Feel my, my, my serpentine
In the jungle welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring you to your knees, knees
In the jungle welcome to the jungle




Watch it bring you to you
Its gonna bring you down, ha!!

Overall Meaning

The song "Welcome to the Jungle" by Guns N' Roses is a classic rock song that speaks about the rough and dangerous side of life in the city, particularly in Los Angeles. The lyrics invite the listener to enter the jungle of the city and experience the thrill and danger of living there. The verses talk about how the city has everything a person could want, but at a price. The lines "If you got the money honey we got your disease" suggest that the city has the ability to corrupt and destroy those who are not careful.


The chorus "Welcome to the jungle, we've got fun and games" is sarcastic, and implies that the city is actually a place full of danger and violence. The line "Feel my, my, my serpentine" references the temptation and seduction that the city offers. The song further states that once you enter the jungle, you will not be able to escape. The line "You know where you are? You're in the jungle baby, you're gonna die!" suggests that the city can consume the people who live there.


The song's lyrics were written by lead singer Axl Rose, and the rest of the band contributed to the music. The song was released in 1987 as the second single from Guns N' Roses' debut album, "Appetite for Destruction." It quickly became a hit and helped propel the band to stardom. The powerful guitar riffs and energetic singing made it an instant classic.

การที่ตัวเรานำตัวอย่างนี้ขึ้นมาแสดงก้เพื่อจะให้ให้ทานได้เหันกำลังกรรมกำลังครวาม
ปราณาหรือตัณหาแม้มันไม่มีตัวตนแม้ว่า
จะเกิดขึ้นและดับไปแล้วก้ดีมันก้ยังมีครวามสามารถที่จะแสดงออกชึ่งการกระทบกับจิตใจอันต่อให้เกิดอารมณัขึ้นได้มิได้หยุดหยอ่นทั้งนนี้เพื่อให้ทานได้เหันตาไว้เพียงนิด
เดิยวก่อกำลังของกรรมหรือตัณหานี้มีมากมายนั้นครวามสามารถเราสรางภพชาติ
ก้ยังได้อีกทั้งมิได้สืบต่อไปก้ดว้ยตอ้งการ
