Kiss Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

La mort nous appelle
On vit le temps de la rejoindre
Malgré le béton
N'oublie pas qu'ici c'est la jungle
Wow c'est jungle
C'est jungle
La mort nous appelle
On vit le temps de la rejoindre
Malgré le béton
N'oublie qu'ici c'est la jungle
Wow c'est la jungle
C'est la jungle

Like a lion roar
We Inna the jungle
Damn Inna the jungle
Get ready to rumble
We nah run No
Inside the jungle
The strongest man is a killer
Ghetto youth
Dema dealers
We are fear less
We nah get down
Dreadlock swing pon me head
Like a lion
We nah go back
We nah abandon
We nah fear
No more fear
Oh no no no no

La mort nous appelle
On vit le temps de la rejoindre
Malgré le béton
N'oublie pas qu'ici c'est la jungle
Wow c'est jungle
C'est jungle
La mort nous appelle
On vit le temps de la rejoindre
Malgré le béton
N'oublie qu'ici c'est la jungle
Wow c'est la jungle
C'est la jungle

Ici c'est la jungle
On survit pas quand on est faible
Sur ton extinction
Prédateur compte en effet
Y'a ceux qui en ont
Ceux qui sont dans l'estomac
Être en proie au doute
Et d'un coup tu délaisse ton âme
Ils voudraient m'étiqueter
M'imposer vision du bonheur
Avec beaucoup de fierté
Mais qui se sait
Je n'ai qu'un instant
Et l'instinct pour survivre à ça
T'sais bien qu'avec les burnes
J'irai où tu n'iras pas
C'est le temps de la rejoindre
Qu'il te faut quand tu fais tes comptes
On essaie de s'en sortir
Sucer pour le succès c'est non
Je jubile œil du tigre
Dis-moi qui m'arrêtera
Dis-moi pourquoi tu parles
N'appauvris pas l'débat

La mort nous appelle
On vit le temps de la rejoindre
Malgré le béton
N'oublie pas qu'ici c'est la jungle
Wow c'est jungle
C'est jungle
La mort nous appelle
On vit le temps de la rejoindre
Malgré le béton
N'oublie qu'ici c'est la jungle




Wow c'est la jungle
C'est la jungle

Overall Meaning

The song "Jungle" by Kiss is a vivid depiction of the harsh reality of life in the urban jungle. The lyrics describe the danger and violence that can be found on the streets at night, and the sense of hopelessness and despair that some people experience as they struggle to survive.


The opening lines of the song set the scene for the dark and foreboding world of the jungle, with the sun going down and the beasts waking up to take another life. The singer of the song is unable to sleep, feeling as though he is in too deep and without a place to hide. The song speaks of the different fates that befall people in the jungle, some making it home safely while others die alone or fall prey to the predators that lurk in the shadows.


The second verse of the song is particularly poignant, describing the impact of violence on families. Mothers mourning and fathers groaning, while a child takes a hit, and a mother never hears her baby's last goodbye. The song ends on a note of fatalism, with the realization that in the jungle, all is flesh and bone.


Overall, the song can be seen as a commentary on the human condition, and the struggle for survival in an unforgiving world. The lyrics are powerful and evocative, and the music adds to the sense of foreboding and tension that permeates the song.
