Katy Perry Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Your peacock, cock
Your peacock, cock, cock
Your peacock
I wanna see your peacock, cock, cock
Your peacock, cock
Your peacock, cock, cock
Your peacock
Word on the street, you got somethin' to show me, me
Magical, colorful, Mr. Mystery, ee
I'm intrigued, for a peek, heard it's fascinating
Come on, baby, let me see
What you hiding underneath
What's up your sleeve?
Such a tease, wanna see the show
In 3D, a movie, heard it's beautiful
Be the judge and my girls gonna take a vote
Come on, baby, let me see
What you hiding underneath
I want the jaw-droppin', eye-poppin', head-turnin', body-shockin'
(Oh, ayo, oh, oh, ayo)
I want my heart-throbbin', ground-shakin, show-stoppin', amazin'
(Oh, ayo, oh, oh, ayo)
Are you brave enough to let me see your peacock?
Don't be a chicken boy, stop acting like a biotch
I'm a peace out if you don't give me the pay off
Come on, baby, let me see
What you hiding underneath
Are you brave enough to let me see your peacock?
What you're waiting for, it's time for you to show it off
Don't be a shy kind of guy I'll bet it's beautiful
Come on, baby, let me see
What you hidin' underneath
I wanna see your peacock, cock, cock
Your peacock, cock
Your peacock, cock, cock
Your peacock
I wanna see your peacock, cock, cock
Your peacock, cock
Your peacock, cock, cock
Your peacock
I wanna see your
Skip the talk, heard it all, time to walk the walk
Break me off, if your bad, show me who's the boss
Need some goose, to get loose, come on take a shot
Come on, baby, let me see
What you hiding underneath
I want the jaw-droppin', eye-popin', head-turnin', body-shockin'
(Oh, ayo, oh, oh, ayo)
I want my heart-throbbin', ground-shakin, show-stoppin', amazin'
(Oh, ayo, oh, oh, ayo)
Are you brave enough to let me see your peacock?
Don't be a chicken boy, stop acting like a biotch
I'm a peace out if you don't give me the pay off
Come on, baby, let me see
What you hiding underneath
Are you brave enough to let me see your peacock?
What you're waiting for, it's time for you to show it off
Don't be a shy kind of guy I'll bet it's beautiful
Come on, baby, let me see
What you hiding underneath
I wanna see your peacock, cock, cock
Your peacock, cock
Your peacock, cock, cock
Your peacock, cock
Oh my god, no exaggeration
Boy, all this time was worth the waiting
I just shed a tear
I am so unprepared
You got the finest architecture
End of the rainbow-looking treasure
Such a sight to see
And it's all for me
Are you brave enough to let me see your peacock?
Don't be a chicken boy, stop acting like a biotch
I'm a peace out if you don't give me the pay off
Come on, baby, let me see

Katy Perry's "Peacock" is a playful and suggestive song about wanting to see a man's genitalia. The lyrics are filled with innuendos and bird references. The chorus repeats the line "I wanna see your peacock" over and over, with cock being a euphemism for penis. Perry asks the man if he is "brave enough" to show her his peacock, and tells him not to be a "chicken boy" or act like a "biotch." She also mentions wanting to be "the judge," and her "girls gonna take a vote" implying that she may be discussing the man's endowment with her female friends.
Perry's lyrics also use bird imagery to describe the man's genitalia, suggesting that it is a beautiful and colorful sight, "magical, colorful, Mr. Mystery." The song also includes the line "End of the rainbow-looking treasure," which may be a nod to the LGBT+ community and its use of rainbows as symbols.
Overall, "Peacock" is a bold and unabashed celebration of male sexuality. While some listeners may find the lyrics vulgar or offensive, others see it as a catchy and fun pop song that embraces sexual liberation.
