The meaning of the lyrics of the song "The World Is Crazy" by the artist "Will.I.Am"

In "The World Is Crazy," Will.I.Am expresses his alarm and disappointment with the state of the modern world, which he believes has gone mad.

The lyrics list numerous examples of chaos and insanity we witness: violence broadcasted in the media, moral decay, political corruption, obsession with internet fame, lack of education and opportunities for youth. Will.I.Am utilizes hyperbole and sarcasm to highlight the absurdity of it all. For instance, he mentions "killer mothers," "politicians detached from social institutions," and "people buying water for the Sandman."

The song's chorus, "Everybody in the world seems to have lost their minds," expresses a feeling of being lost and confused about what is happening. Will.I.Am turns to his mother for an explanation, but even she can't give him a clear answer.

Overall, "The World Is Crazy" is a cry from the heart, reflecting fear and anxiety in the face of the chaos and uncertainty of the modern world. Will.I.Am does not offer any ready-made solutions but calls for reflection on what is happening and not remaining indifferent.

[Hook:]

I think everybody in the world has lost their mind

I believe they lost something they cannot find

Cause everybody is going crazy

And everybody is out their goddamn mind.

[Verse 1:]

I don't wanna watch the news to see no bad news,

Don't wanna be glued to the Youtube,

I ain't paying no attention to no sick dude,

Eat them people up like it's chinese food.

Killer mommas storing babies in the dumpsters,

Ain't no education for our little youngsters

Politicians operate with no structure,

You're working dirty, that's why we don't trust ya.

Everybody just wanna be famous,

Whiling on the internet, acting all shameless,

Yesterday the motherfuckers was nameless,

Now they're on the talkshow, ain't really saying shit.

[Pre-Hook:]

Everybody just following a blind man,

Buying water for the motherfucker sandman,

Hoping in the ocean, looking for Bin Laden's body.

The world's going crazy.

[Hook:]

I think everybody in the world has lost their mind

I believe they lost something they cannot find

Cause everybody is going crazy

And everybody is out their goddamn mind.

[Verse 2:]

I asked my momma what the hell is really going on,

She said the world's too cold, keep your coat on.

I heard a priest tell a lie at the podium,

The whole world in a state of pandemonium.

Don't wait for the answer, it ain't coming soon,

They pick cause is killing like it's high noon

AK47 in the classroom, kids killing each other like it's cartoon.

Everybody unemployed, no education for the kids

Got me so annoyed,

They put the money in the prison like they're paranoid,

They put the Bible down to pick up the tabloid.

[Pre-Hook:]

Damn! We're all following a blind man,

Buying water for the motherfucker sandman,

Hopping in the ocean, looking for Bin Laden's body.

The world's going crazy.

[Hook:]

I think everybody in the world has lost their mind

I believe they lost something they cannot find

Cause everybody is going crazy

And everybody is out their goddamn mind.
