Planning: 'Beautiful People' Chris Brown Lyric Analysis




The pictures attached above show my annotations of the lyrics from 'Beautiful People' by Chris Brown. I wanted to break down the lyrics to understand the hidden and obvious meanings portrayed through metaphors, personifications and exclamarative text.
I have already analysed the music video through a timeline analysis, which has helped me to understand the type of shots used for the music video, which are also a depiction of what the lyrics mean and help me to see the running themes used so I can chose which ones to follow through with in my own music video and other not to use. 
The lyrics work along with the beet of the music, with 'Oh whoa...' and 'Don't you know know know' repeated a lot through the lyric script which is something I can use to my advantage and, with possible footage filmed along side this music, can play off of the beet and lyric change.
