Fun
Troye Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well, don't you want to see the world, boy
All the countries and their stars, boy
Just don't look them in the eyes, boy
You just gotta' take their lives, boy
Let me take you for a drive, boy
Oh, I swear you'll feel alive, boy

All you gotta' do is trust that I'm being true
And do it for the people who love you

Let's go have
fun, you and me in the old jeep
Ridin' 'round town with our rifles on the front seat
Fun, you and me in the Middle East
Shootin' at rocks bullets cocked in the mid-day

Sun, you and me in the old jeep
Ridin' 'round town with our rifles on the front seat
Fun, you and me in the Middle East
Shootin' at rocks bullets cocked in the mid-day, sun

Listen to what I tell you
You'll see, my sign
Now you know what you gotta do
Let's go have fun
When you're standing on the line, boy
Don't go looking for goodbye, boy
Yeah you gotta set them free, boy
'Cause you know that's what they need, boy
Yeah you're gonna make them cry, boy
Til' they put you in the ground, boy

All you gotta' do is trust that I'm being true
And do it for the people who love you

Let's go have
fun, you and me in the old jeep
Ridin' 'round town with our rifles on the front seat
Fun, you and me in the Middle East
Shootin' at rocks bullets cocked in the mid-day

Sun, you and me in the old jeep
Ridin' 'round town with our rifles on the front seat
Fun, you and me in the Middle East
Shootin' at rocks bullets cocked in the mid-day, sun

Listen to what I tell you
You'll see, my sign
Now you know what you gotta do
Let's go have fun
Let's go have fun

Let's go have
fun, you and me in the old jeep
Ridin' 'round town with our rifles on the front seat
Fun, you and me in the Middle East
Shootin' at rocks bullets cocked in the mid-day

Sun, you and me in the old jeep
Ridin' 'round town with our rifles on the front seat
Fun, you and me in the Middle East
Shootin' at rocks bullets cocked in the mid-day

fun, you and me in the old jeep
Ridin' 'round town with our rifles on the front seat
Fun, you and me in the Middle East
Shootin' at rocks bullets cocked in the mid-day

Sun, you and me in the old jeep
Ridin' 'round town with our rifles on the front seat




Fun, you and me in the Middle East
Shootin' at rocks bullets cocked in the mid-day

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Troye Sivan's song "Fun" is a satirical take on a troubling issue - the glorification of violence and imperialism. The song's opening lines, "Don't you want to see the world, boy / All the countries and their stars, boy / Just don't look them in the eyes, boy / You just gotta' take their lives, boy," refer to the aggressive foreign policies of certain countries that involve invading foreign lands and taking their resources. The lyrics "Ridin' 'round town with our rifles on the front seat" and "Shootin' at rocks bullets cocked in the mid-day sun" are a reminder of the brutal reality of war and its devastating effects on people.


The song is a commentary on the state of the world and the impact of imperialism and war on humanity. The lyrics "All you gotta do is trust that I'm being true / And do it for the people who love you" suggest that governments convince their citizens to support wars by convincing them it's for their own good, but when in reality, it's for a hidden agenda. The chorus "Let's go have fun" is jarring - it's almost a call-to-action for destruction, but in reality, it's a cynical statement.


Overall, Troye Sivan's "Fun" is a commentary on the glorification of violence and the impact of imperialism on humanity.
