The Planet Is Fine
Vogue Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

BITCHY ENVIRONMENTALISTS ARE TRYING TO SAVE THE PLANET WHILE WE HAVEN'T EVEN LEARNED HOW TO TAKE CARE OF OURSELVES YET
KNOW IT ALL BOURGEOIS LIBERALS TELL ME HOW TO LIVE - FUCK OFF - I LIKE MY FOOD LOADED WITH CHEMICAL ADDITIVES

THE PLANET'S DOING FINE - THE PLANET'S DOING GREAT

THE PLANET'S DOING FINE THE PLANET'S DOING GREAT - IT'S BEEN BEING HERE FOR OVER MILLIONS OF YEARS
A BUNCH OF PLASTIC BAGS AND ALUMINIUM CANS ARE AS MUCH A THREAT AS THIS STUPID FUCKING BAND

THE PLANET'S DOING FINE - THE PLANET'S DOING GREAT
LOOK AT ME I'M DANCING YEAH?

IT'S JUST A BLUE AND GREEN BALL THAT'S FLOATING AROUND THE SUN - IMAGINE THE HISTORY OF DISASTER IT RECOVERED FROM
SPEAKING OF COVER UPS - BARBIEDOLL YOUR SURVIVAL TECHNIQUES - FORGET IT - WE ARE A POSTERCHILD ON HOW TO GET EXTINCT

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Vogue's "The Planet Is Fine" may seem controversial at first glance, as they criticize those who are trying to save the planet while humans haven't figured out how to care for themselves yet. Vogue refers to these people as "bitchy environmentalists" and "know-it-all bourgeois liberals" who tell us how to live our lives. The artist's stance is clear: they reject the idea that we need to sacrifice our lifestyle to protect the environment.

However, the song's chorus emphasizes that the planet is doing fine, even in the face of human destruction. Vogue reminds us that the planet has been here for millions of years and can recover from its disasters, including the plastic bags and aluminum cans that pose a threat. The chorus repeats the same message twice; it feels like Vogue is trying to emphasize its significance.

The final verse concurs with the chorus and implies that humanity is not invincible. Vogue then ridicules the idea that even with the so-called "survival techniques," presented by Barbie-doll, humans seem to be on the path to extinction. The implied sarcasm here is evident when Vogue states the ridiculous survival techniques that have been suggested, further emphasizing the message of the song.
