For example, I googled Bang Bang song lyrics interpretation.
Song Meanings gave me the full lyrics.
I was five and he was six
We rode on horses made of sticks
He wore black and I wore white
He would always win the fight
Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down
Seasons came and changed the time
When I grew up, I called him mine
He would always laugh and say
āRemember when we used to play?ā
Bang bang, I shot you down
Bang bang, you hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, I used to shoot you down
Music played and people sang
Just for me the church bells rang
Now heās gone, I donāt know why
And 'til this day, sometimes I cry
He didnāt even say goodbye
He didnāt take the time to lie
Hereās the interpretation I like: I think that the fact that its a game in the beginning is because itās explaining the innocence of the temptation to false happiness at first sight. Itās easy to think that it was true happiness that you found, but it was always wrong, hence the fact that it āShot her down.ā
The second verse has the main character completely entranced by this falsified happiness, even though the devil (being the boy) reminds her that sheās been āshot downā by these feelings before.
The next verse reads that church bells rang only for her. While I really like the way that people interpret this as the groom leaving the main character, I think itās something different. One of the only times a church bell will ring for you and you alone is a funeral.
So what I think has happened is that when the main character dies in the song, she finally realizes that sheās been living with false happiness her entire life, and that in death, thereās no comforting voice to ātake the time to lie.ā And so after all this, the character is shot down once again.
I found out that most other language moderators do not add lyrics when there is dialogue, and itās mostly English moderators who include them when thereās space in the segment. Once the English is there, I think the other languages then have the option to include them or not. Some languages require way more space to convey a meaning.
