[en]Agreeing with the host's assessment, Katy said the song was about women being in control.

水果姐同意主持人的說法,接著表示這首歌就是關(guān)于女性權(quán)利。

The song, a collaboration with hip hop trio Migos features such lyrics as: 'I'm on the menu, baby,' and 'got me spread like a buffet.'
這首歌還有嘻哈三人組Migos的參與,比如歌詞“我在菜單里,寶貝”和“琳瑯陳列自己,如豪華自助餐”。

Katy said that while 'posing a question' in song was a fringe benefit of her work, for her it was more about creating a feeling of 'escapism' in the audience.
水果姐說在歌中“提出問題”僅是她工作的附加福利,對她而言更多的是在聽眾中創(chuàng)造一種“逃避現(xiàn)實”的感覺。

'It's not my job to preach at a person or tell them what they should think,' she said.
她說:“說教或告訴人們應(yīng)該怎么想不是我的工作。”

'It's nice, though, if I can pose a question or broaden a perspective - I just have to reflect sometimes what's going on in the world a little bit, but also make some escapism music.'
“當(dāng)然,如果我能提出問題或是擴(kuò)大視角也是非常好的,我有時候必須反思一下世界上發(fā)生的事情,同時又做一些逃避現(xiàn)實類型的音樂。”
