Electric kiss
Lady Gaga Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We are a generation twisted by our myth
Confused and ludicrous, holding on to love
Consumed by all the pleasures in our midst
A life without the lips we've kissed
And losing all control

We're gonna start a resistance
So we want independence
We're gonna give the world some of this

Electric kiss
I'm gonna change the world with my lips
One voice forever
We'll live together
Peace, love, solitude and happiness
Electric kiss

Fame is our felony
We're so in love with it
Superstars and masochists
Who don't know where to go
But the poets and the fathers of our time

Put down their weapons in their arms
And know what they must do

We're gonna start a resistance
So we want independence
We're gonna give the world some of this

Electric kiss
I'm gonna change the world with my lips
One voice forever
We'll live together
Peace, love, solitude and happiness

Electric kiss
I'm gonna change the world with my lips
One voice for ever
We'll live together




Peace, love, solitude and happiness
Electric kiss

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Lady Gaga's "Electric kiss" express a sense of disillusionment and dissatisfaction with the current state of the world, particularly with regards to fame and materialism. The line "We are a generation twisted by our myth" suggests that society has created unrealistic and harmful ideals that we have internalized and are struggling to live up to. The lyrics also touch on the idea of loss - specifically, the pain of losing someone we have loved and the fear of losing control over our lives.


However, the song also offers a message of hope and resistance. The chorus speaks of starting a movement and fighting for independence, and the repeated phrase "Electric kiss" suggests that love and connection have the power to bring about positive change. The line "I'm gonna change the world with my lips" could be interpreted as a metaphor for using words and actions to create a better future.


Overall, "Electric kiss" is a complex and thought-provoking song that addresses both personal and societal issues. It encourages listeners to reject toxic influences and work towards a more peaceful and fulfilling existence.

She writes every song, every lyric, every note on piano. She DOES higher produces to co produce the electronic elements of her music with her. She created the theme for every album and every performance/ appearance. She does more than most artists. No one seems to notice it though.
