Right on Time
Red Hot Chili Peppers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've got rhythm when I bleed
'Til death do us apart
Break my heart so I can start
Supercalifragilistic
Kiss me in the futuristic
Twisted but I must insist
It's time to get on top of this
It's right on time
It's right on time
It's right on time, it's right on time (it's right)
It's right on time, it's right on time (on time)
Lookin' fine, you're lookin' fine (it's right)
And get on 1999 (on time)
Discard to bombard
Calling all you shooting stars
Holy cow, bow wow wow
Now I'm here, I'm nowhere now
Joan of Arc reincarnated
Maybe we could be related
So much blood to circulate
And so much space to decorate
It's right on time
It's right on time
It's right on time, it's right on time (it's right)
It's right on time, it's right on time (on time)
Lookin' fine, you're lookin' fine (it's right)
And get on 1999 (on time)
It's right on time
It's right on time
It's right on time
It's right on time
Well, plain and simple pain
I want to but I can't complain
Death row, let us go
It's time to blow up for show
All the world reverberated
Coming through, we motorcaded
Start off when we operated
Turing up in solid stated
Oh, Lord
The lyrics of the Red Hot Chili Peppers' song "Right on Time" have a complex meaning, with the band's lead singer, Anthony Kiedis, using a range of metaphors and images to convey his message. The song comes off their 1999 album, "Californication," and it blends rock and funk music from the band's earlier days with more contemporary sounds.
The opening lyrics, "One shot, all I need, I've got rhythm when I bleed," suggest that the band is confident in their abilities and that they are ready to take on the world with all their might. The song's chorus, "It's right on time, it's right on time, it's right on time," reinforces this idea, as if the band is striving to be exactly where they need to be in their music careers and in life in general.
The lyrics also touch on themes of transformation, rebirth, and the passage of time. Lines such as "Break my heart so I can start," "Joan of Arc reincarnated, maybe we could be related," and "So much blood to circulate and so much space to decorate" all suggest that the band is ready to take on new challenges, embrace change, and create something fresh.
