Lady Gaga: Alejandro Meaning

Song Released: 2009

Alejandro Lyrics

(Talked)
I know that we are young
And I know that you may love me
But I just can't be with you like this
any more Alejandro

Oh (oh, oh, oh)
Oh (oh, oh, oh)
She's got both hands
In her pocket
And she wont look at you
Won't look at...

   She is talking in the point of veiw of one of her gay friends named alejandro its about how he cant stop being gay yet he still loves god in the song hes pushing away his gay lovers roberto and fernado but at the same time gaga uses biblical refernces to symbilze that he also pushes away god.

   Satanism? are you kidding me?
   I never seen satan in one of her video's
   i never seen any satan symbols in her video's
   (and all those illuminati crap "signs" dont count! like a hand before her eye or a deer with horns)
   some people have such a narrow brain, it's unbelievable

   This song is significantly trying to tell people that she doesn't want to be with her god anymore. Like how some users said 'Alejandro' is 'God' and all that. She doesn't want to be part of.. like... Catholicity anymore.
   
   If you notice the music video has many things that is against Catholics. At some point she's raping gays and another point she's eating the beads thing with the cross (I'm not Catholic, so I don't really know what it is). That isn't what a 'good Catholic girl' would do.
   
   She is now a Satanist, and she's trying to get the minds of her main listeners : Teenagers. But of course, she wouldn't say it openly, right? "Oh, I'm trying to get the minds of my listeners to betray their religions for Satanism." Instead, she said that it was about her ex-lovers (her God, her Jesus and her Holy Spirit). She lets go of them for Satanism. You have to believe this!

   Its a metaphor when she says alejandro and roberto and fernando she's talking bout society/church/religion im not your babe im not your child so dont tell me what to do. She talkin bout how society today makes gay ppl pick God and be straight or be Gay and be a sinner forever. And if she was a devilworshipper how come when she prays she says Lord,Jesus,and God so yea getcha fact straight get a life and stop hatin on Gaga

   First of all she isnt apart of the illuminati for all you idiots who thinks so but she does play with symbolism though but about the song think of alejandro,fernando,and roberto as the church its about how the religions make gays pick between God or their sexuality. "You know that i love you boy hot like mexico rejoice but at this point ive gotta choose nothing to lose" this part she speaking as one of the gay ppl actually saying "you know tht i love you God but i dnt know if i can stop being gay" so yea shes not illuminati retards follow me @schizz01 on twitter thnk you :)

And that's what I think Of her and the sOng...

   Just becaue lady gaga says the song is about that dosent mean its true she uses alot of parables , her songs have two meanings...so then why would she bother putting religion into the videos if that has nothing to do with the in the video she is dressed as a nun and swallows a rosary...

   My opinion is it's religious. I don't really like the song meaning.
   
   Alejandro: God
   Fernando: Jesus
   Roberto: Holy Spirit
   Babe: Child
   
   When you replace it, there's your message. -_____-

    Okay your all pretty much wrong but nice guesses, Lady GaGa said "This song is about my gay friends"
    Now, How is a broken relationship or holy triity related to gay? Sorta is, but no. Okay? Just no...
    
    She's in love with a man, who's in love with another man, theres the base. So she's leaving them and their screwed up ways behind. She doesn't want to have emotions for Alejandro even though she does. She doesn't want Alejandro because he loves Fernando, Fernando reminds GaGa of her ex Roberto.
    So these might not be their reals names and stuff since the all seem to end in 'O' like some coincidence (Song Rhymes ;D) but she's pretty much in love with a gay man who loves a guy who reminds her of her ex. :) Done!

    this is obvious it's about her fear of these three men. alejandro, roberto, fernando are all men. and she can't be intimate with any of them. this song translates how she feels about them. and 'i'm not your child' means she's telling these guys she's not their girl toy. this entire song is based on fear. listen to it again and you'll get the clear meaning. not about religion, it's about fear.

    This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway

    Lady GaGa said herself on a Fuse interview that this is her fear of sex. Too many people bring religion into it. You know your own religion and I'm a Christian. God says to love those people and do as much as we can to disciple to them. We shouldnt sit around and hate her. We love people and reach out to them as much we can. I'm a big fan of Lady Gaga. I also know my truth and do not take the song in like many people do. I mean come on... they are all about relationships.

    Please people, there's no need to interprate Lady Gaga's sick songs if you know the true meaning. You obviously love her and who she is, but it's clear in all her songs, what she does and who she is, that she is trying to kill Christianity and all other religions.
    
    'Alejandro' means: Mans defender and protector' (GOD).
    'Fernando' means: Ardent for peace (JESUS).
    'Roberto' means: Bright or shiningly frame (HOLY SPIRIT).
    'Babe' is the same as 'Child'
    
    
    "Don't call my name, don't call my name, Alejandro(GOD).
    I'm not your child, i'm not your child, Fernando (JESUS)
    Don't call my name, don't call my name, Roberto (HOLY SPIRIT)
    Alejandro. Alejandro(GOD), Just let me go."
