Katy Perry has finally unveiled the music video for ‘Chained To The Rhythm’, yay!

After teasing the vid for what feels like forever (but in actual fact was just two days), fans finally got to enter the theme park which dreams are made of.

View the lyrics

Are we crazy?
Living our lives through a lens
Trapped in our white-picket fence
Like ornaments

So comfortable, we're livin' in a bubble, a bubble
So comfortable, we cannot see the trouble, the trouble

Aren't you lonely, up there in Utopia?
Where nothing will ever be enough
Happily numb

So comfortable, we're livin' in a bubble, a bubble
So comfortable, we cannot see the trouble, the trouble
So put your rose-colored glasses on
And party on

Turn it up, it's your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie

Yeah, we think we're free
Drink, this one's on me
We're all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm, to the rhythm

Turn it up, it's your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie

Yeah, we think we're free
Drink, this one's on me
We're all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm, to the rhythm

Are we tone deaf?
Keep sweeping it under the mat
Thought we could do better than that
I hope we can

So comfortable, we're livin' in a bubble, a bubble
So comfortable, we cannot see the trouble, the trouble

So put (so put)
Your rose-colored glasses on
And party on (wooh!)

Turn it up, it's your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie

Yeah, we think we're free
Drink, this one's on me
We're all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm, to the rhythm

Turn it up, it's your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie

Yeah, we think we're free (aha!)
Drink, this one's on me
We're all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm, to the rhythm

It is my desire
Break down the walls to connect, inspire
Ay, up in your high place, liars
Time is ticking for the empire
The truth they feed is feeble
As so many times before
They greed over the people
They stumbling and fumbling
And we about to riot
They woke up, they woke up the lions (wooh!)

Turn it up, it's your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie (like a wasted zombie)

Yeah, we think we're free
Drink, this one's on me
We're all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm, to the rhythm (we're all chained to the rhythm)

It goes on, and on, and on (turn it up)
(It goes) It goes on, and on, and on (turn it up)
(It goes on, and on, and on, and on)
It goes on, and on, and on (on, and on, and on)

Set in a weird 1950s yet futuristic world, Katy plays on the idea of what’s considered the American dream and the nuclear family, making sure it’s not all just about the huge candy floss that’s flying about.

Or her incredible eyebrows.

But despite the hidden meanings behind the pretty outfits and scenery, all we really want to do is spend the day in Oblivia wearing a pink wig.

Watch! New music out this week which you need to hear immediately:
