Outernet Song

Janet Devlin

Transposer:

[Verse 1] See these magazines with pretty girls rockin’ Size four skinny jeans and on my Television-screens there are endless beauty routines telling me how to look and how I should be perceived And online you’re not safe from thigh gaps and ideal weights I think it’s time time that I took a break [Verse 2] See these magazines with pretty girls rockin’ Size four skinny jeans and on my television-screens there are endless beauty routines brainwashing our teens just to ruin self-esteem And online you’re not safe from thigh gaps and ideal weights I think it’s time time that I took a break. [Interlude] [Verse 3] You could dress me up like a paperdoll But it doesn’t mean I’ll do what I’m told And just because you know my name From my fifteen minutes of fame Doesn’t mean I’ll never change it’s too hard to stay the same And online you’re not safe from sly adds and anon hate I think it’s time time that I took a break [Chorus] Someday we should venture to the outernet Someday we should venture to the outernet [Verse 4] Too much time on the internet it’s not hard to find what people said Why did you change where’s your innocence where’s your blond hair why did you dye it red When you sing you sound like a 10 year old You’re that ginger kid from a TV-show If you don’t like what you hear then turn it off It’s not like I’m being played on the radio And online you’re not safe from fake likes on a Facebook page I think it’s time time that I took a break [Chorus] Someday we should venture to the outernet Someday we should venture to the outernet [Verse 5] There used to be a day where all I wanted to be Was as pretty as those girls in the magazines It tore me up and it tore me apart I didn’t see myself as a piece of art We should teach or kids how to love themselves Not compare to what the media sells ’Cause in this world you can never win Because loving yourself is so unacceptable And online you’re not safe from fake likes on a Facebook page I think it’s time time that I took a break. [Bridge] Time that I took break time that I took break (took break) Time that we took break time that I took break (took break) [Chorus] Someday we should venture to the outernet Someday we should venture to the outernet [Outro] I’ll do anything for a like Anything for a share Anything for a retweet To gain a follower Anything for a like Anything for a share Anything for a retweet where’s all my followers?

La chanson aborde la pression que subissent les jeunes, en particulier les filles, face aux idéaux de beauté véhiculés par les médias et les réseaux sociaux. Elle évoque la façon dont ces standards peuvent nuire à l’estime de soi, transformant des aspirations en déceptions. L'artiste parle de son propre combat pour se libérer de ces attentes et souligne l'importance de s’éloigner des influences négatives de l'Internet, tout en prônant l'amour de soi plutôt que la comparaison incessante avec les autres. Le contexte reflète notre époque moderne, où les réseaux sociaux exercent une influence omniprésente, façonnant les perceptions de la beauté et de la valeur personnelle. La chanson invite à réfléchir sur notre rapport à ces plateformes et à envisager une déconnexion pour retrouver un équilibre et une authenticité perdus.
