god is a dj
Pink (www.mp3sfinder.com) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been a girl with her skirt pulled high
Been the outcast never running with mascara eyes
I see the world
As a candy store

With a cigarette smile saying things you can't ignore
Like, mommy I love you
Daddy I hate you
Brother I need you

Love or hate, fuck you, I can see everything
Here with my third eye
Like the blue in the sky

If God is a D.J, life is a dance floor
love is the rhythm,you are the music
If God is a D.J, life is a dance floor
you get what you're given it's all how you use it

I've been a girl with her finger in the air Unaffected by rumors the truth I don't care
So open your mouth, stick out your tongue
Might as well let go, you can't take back what you've done
Just find a new life style,reason to smile

Look for nirvana, under the strobe lights
Sequins and sex strings
You whisper to me
There's no reason to cry

If God is a D.J, life is a dance floor
love is the rhythm,you are the music
If God is a D.J, life is a dance floor
you get what you're given it's all how you use it

Take what you get and get what you give
I said don't run from yourself,man, that's no way to live( no, no)
I've got a record in my bag,you should give it a spin
Put your hands in the air so that life can begin

(If God is a D.J, if God, say if God is a dj, if God...then life is a dance floor)
Get your ass on the dance floor now!

If God is a D.J, life is a dance floor
love is the rhythm,you are the music
If God is a D.J, life is a dance floor
you get what you're given it's all how you use it

If God is a D.J, life is a dance floor
love is the rhythm,you are the music
If God is a D.J, life is a dance floor
you get what you're given it's all how you use it

If God is a D.J, life is a dance floor
love is the rhythm,you are the music




If God is a D.J, life is a dance floor
you get what you're given it's all how you use it

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Pink's song "God Is A DJ" are about the idea that life is like a dance floor, with God as the DJ and we are the music. The singer talks about her experiences as a girl, with her skirt pulled high and being an outcast with mascara eyes. She sees the world as a candy store and believes that she can control her destiny. She talks about the love and hate in her family and how it shapes who she is. She references her third eye and the ability to see everything - referencing spirituality and a deeper meaning in life.


Midway through the song, Pink talks about how we should find our own reason to smile through a new lifestyle or seeking out nirvana. She then speaks about taking what we are given and making the most of it, rather than running from ourselves. The song ends with a call to action to get on the dance floor and feel the rhythm of life.


The lyrics draw heavily on spiritual themes, while also discussing the challenges of life and the importance of finding one's own path. The message of the song seems to be that we are all responsible for our own happiness and that we should embrace life fully and dance to our own rhythm.

God is telling to live your life
His grace and mercy endures forever
We are the music
Singing to our own beat
Dancing on the sidewalk and the street
We go high and low like a musical note
Always want to do the most
No matter what happens
People of Christ will be happy clapping
MC JC we look up to thee
It’s so heavenly

Now, this is what I call a CRIMINALLY underrated song!
Such a banger, should've hit so much harder back then.

@saahdorothy5808

Hi

@infernicide666

Yeah this was only a minor hit looking back and is less remembered than some of her other hits on albums that followed or the preceding album to this one. It got medium rotation on mtv in early 04’ but quickly disappeared

@darylallmanful

Such a underrated song. One of my favourite Pink tracks. Takes me back to my teenage years.
