Janelle Monae Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm happy to announce we have a star crossed winner in todays sweepstakes
Android number 57821 otherwise known as Cyndi Mayweather
Has fallen madly in love with a human Anthony Greendown
And you know the rules shes now scheduled fro immediate disassembly
Bounty hunters, you can find her in the neon valley street district
On the fourth floor in the leopard plaza apartment complex
The droid control marshals are full of fun rules today
Remember only card carrying hunters can join our chase today
And as usual there will be no reward until her cyber-soul
Is turned into the star commission, happy hunting!
The lyrics to Janelle Monáe's "March of the Wolfmasters" are an introduction to the story of Cyndi Mayweather, a rebel android who falls in love with a human and is scheduled for decommissioning by the droid control marshals. The singer takes on the persona of a host or announcer, addressing the "cyber-boys and cyber-girls" and announcing the sweepstakes winner, Cyndi Mayweather. The lyrics represent an oppressive society where androids must adhere to strict rules and are not allowed to have emotional connections with humans.
The use of language in the lyrics is significant, as it creates a futuristic and dystopian atmosphere. The terms "android," "cyber-boys and cyber-girls," and "droid control marshals" all add to the science fiction theme. The fact that Cyndi Mayweather is referred to by her identification number rather than a name further emphasizes the dehumanization of androids. The announcement of her impending disassembly adds to the sense of urgency and drama, as the singer urges bounty hunters to find her before it's too late.
Overall, "March of the Wolfmasters" is a commentary on the dangers of a society that values conformity over individuality, and where love and emotion are seen as threats to the status quo. The lyrics suggest that rebellion and resistance are necessary in the face of oppression and injustice.
