Katy Perry's "Woman's World" Lyrics, Explained
— CYNTHIA PARKHURSTIt’s Katy Perry’s world, and we’re lucky to be living in it. After a two-year music hiatus, the singer and former American Idol judge released a much-anticipated new single, “Woman’s World,” on July 11.The song, which Perry co-wrote with Chloe Angelides, is the first cut from her upcoming seventh studio album, 143. Speaking recently with Apple Music 1’s Zane Lowe, the singer said she penned the “empowering” track while “feeling really connected to my feminine divine.”The theme of femininity is front and center of the track’s music video, which she also released on July 11. Directed by Charlotte Rutherford, the eccentric video sees Perry reimagine the famous Lunch Atop a Skyscraper portrait, strut down city streets in Mechanical legs, hitch a ride in a monster truck with Youtuber Trisha Paytas, and hang off the side of a helicopter while screaming “I’m Katy Perry.” The singer’s army of “KatyCats,” as she lovingly calls them, quickly declared “Woman’s World” an “iconic bop.” But what do the lyrics actually mean?“Woman’s World” MeaningPerry’s latest release serves as a powerful celebration of womanhood, describing women as “superhuman,” “strong,” and “heaven-sent.” The dance-pop track also highlights the growing influence of women in modern society. In the pre-chorus, she belts out, “Open your eyes, just look around and you’ll discover, you know, it’s a woman’s world.”Speaking on Apple Music 1, she noted that “Woman’s World” is her first major solo release “since becoming a mother” to her daughter, Daisy Dove, who she shares with Orlando Bloom. In the song, she seems to reference being a mom, with the lyrics “She's a mother” and “She was born to shine.”“Woman’s World” LyricsIt's a woman's world and you're lucky to be livin' in itSexy, confidentSo intelligentShe is heaven-sentSo soft, so strongShe's a winner, championSuperhuman, number oneShe's a sister, she's a motherOpen your eyes, just look around and you'll discover, you knowIt's a woman's world and you're lucky to be livin' in it (Uh-huh, uh-huh)It's a woman's world and you're lucky to be livin' in it (Uh-huh, uh-huh)You better celebrate'Cause, baby, we ain't goin' away (Oh)It's a woman's world and you're lucky to be livin' in it (Uh-huh, uh-huh)Fire in her eyesFeminine divineShe was born to shineTo shine, to shine, yeahShe's a flower, she's a thornSuperhuman, number oneShe's a sister, she's a motherOpen your eyes, just look around and you'll discover, you knowIt's a woman's world and you're lucky to be livin' in it (Uh-huh, uh-huh)It's a woman's world and you're lucky to be livin' in it (Uh-huh, uh-huh; you better)You better celebrate (Celebrate)'Cause, baby, we ain't goin' away (Oh)It's a woman's world and you're lucky to be livin' in it (Uh-huh)Lucky to be livin' in it(Woo, uh-huh)Lucky to be livin' in itThat's rightIt's a woman's world (Uh-huh)And you're lucky to be livin' in it(Uh-huh)
