Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Queen's "We Will Rock You" are an anthem for anyone who wants to make a mark in the world, regardless of their age or background. The song begins with a young boy in the streets, being told to make a big noise and play hard because he will be a big man someday. The verse repeats and adds that the boy has mud on his face - a symbol of hard work and perseverance. The chorus begins, with the declaration that "we will rock you." The repetition of this statement is electric and seeks to excite the listener with a sense of anticipation and unity.


The next verse follows the same pattern, but now the boy has grown up to be a young man. He is shouting in the streets, telling the world that he is ready for anything. Again, he has blood on his face, but this time it signifies strength and endurance. The chorus repeats, stating that "we will rock you" with even more intensity, as if the listener is being egged on to join in.


The final verse is more reflective, with the boy now an old man. He is pleading with his eyes for some peace, but someone better put him back into his place because he still has mud on his face. The chorus repeats again, with the crowd joining in and the song fading away triumphantly. Overall, "We Will Rock You" is a song that encourages people to be bold, brave, and to stand up for what they believe in.
