ShatteredGlass2008 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Hey Guys, so I listened to Work ***** for the first time in a veeery long time last night and I found there to be hidden messages/ cry for help. Forgive me if already been posted or pointed out by someone here goes my interpretation: Work ***** as in Work Britney (*****->Britney, it's Britney *****) You want a Maserati? You better work *****You want a Lamborghini? Sippin' martinis? (aimed at Lou/Jamie Lynn/others profiting from her estate)Look hot in a bikini? You better work *****You wanna live fancy? Live in a big mansion?Party in France? you betta work ***** (Britney you betta work so we can afford our lifestyle off of your hard earned money) Here comes the big beat, big beat disasterNo time to quit now, just time to get it nowPick up what I'm putting down (she's basically a slave and has to follow her orders) Break it off, break it down (she wants to break from the chains) See me come and you can hear my sound Tell somebody in your town ( spread the word about me (britney) being trapped in this corrupt business model, without any human rights whatsoever) Spread the word, spread the word Go call the police Go call the governor (send help please cause she cant organize help herself for obvious reasons) so my take is, that she was clearly trying to shed a light on her situation when she helped co-writing (sorry dont know if shes got a co-writing share) or at least the people in the writing camp knew about her situation. Ironically, in the I am Britney Jean Documentary, Jamie is soo concerned on the video set, and doesnt want sharks near "his baby" (remember that scene) when he's in fact one of them, or the biggest... Anyway, i hope you have a nice day and thanks for the read Link to comment

Easy There Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Yup. The biggest clue is Britney on top of upside down pyramid holding the chains. Aka her on bottom of the food chain/pyramid 3 Link to comment

Benjamyn Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Just the sharks swimming around her alone... You may be on to something, lol some of the lyrics really do fit the situation, I love that she is listed as the main writer (along with like 7 others lol) **** I hope she comes out with a tell all... seriously...

Benjamyn Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Also I love how she is at the bottom of the pyramid but also holding the chains... She is still in power, look, now she has refused to work, and the team trying to f her over, are screwed... She is the money maker... Not them... And that is all that matters... 2 Link to comment
Benjamyn Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 Ok sorry last comment... Also all of the mannequins explode from behind blindfolds (the explosions come from the eyes and rip the blindfold open) killer! Link to comment
Haha-Hehe-Haha-Ho Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 It wasn't a message from Britney (she had basically zero creative control then), it was a message TO Britney. It's a subtle (but not so subtle) threat that she needed to earn her keep, the irony of which is off the charts. 1 1 Link to comment
eyesaregrin Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 WOW. super creative but, it's just a song. It was meant to be a comercial pop song for the gays. That's it. Link to comment
Stefani Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 In hindsight, the song does seem foreboding. 1 Link to comment
bliss Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 I don't think the song is really that deep, it's just a standard EDM song 1 Link to comment
Roxxy Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 She said so herself that it's a term of endearment and a song for her gay fans. 2 Link to comment
