The Passenger
James Newell Osterberg, Ricky Gardiner
I am a passenger
And I ride, and I ride
I ride through the city's backsides
I see the stars come out of the sky
Yeah, they're bright in a hollow sky
You know it looks so good tonight
I am the passenger
I stay under glass
I look through my window so bright
I see the stars come out tonight
I see the bright and hollow sky
Over the city's ripped back sky
And everything looks good tonight
Singin' la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la, la la
Get into the car
We'll be the passenger
We'll ride through the city tonight
See the city's ripped backsides
We'll see the bright and hollow sky
We'll see the stars that shine so bright
Oh, stars made for us tonight
Oh, the passenger
How, how he rides
Oh, the passenger
He rides and he rides
He looks through his window
What does he see?
He sees the silent hollow sky
He sees the stars come out tonight
He sees the city's ripped backsides
He sees the winding ocean drive
And everything was made for you and me
All of it was made for you and me
'Cause it just belongs to you and me
So let's take a ride and see what's mine
Singin' la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la

Oh, the passenger
He rides and he rides

A Jornada do Observador: Desvendando The Passenger de Iggy Pop
A música The Passenger, interpretada pelo icônico Iggy Pop, é uma ode à observação e à experiência de ser um espectador do mundo em movimento. A letra descreve a perspectiva de alguém que viaja pela cidade, não como um motorista, mas como um passageiro, alguém que está ali para ver, sentir e absorver sem a responsabilidade de dirigir ou controlar a direção.
A repetição do refrão 'la la la la la la la la' pode ser interpretada como um estado de contemplação ou um mantra que expressa a liberdade e a leveza de simplesmente ser um observador. A referência ao 'céu brilhante e oco' e às 'estrelas que saem à noite' sugere uma conexão com o universo e a beleza que se encontra na paisagem urbana noturna, apesar de sua natureza fragmentada e imperfeita, simbolizada pela 'parte de trás rasgada da cidade'.
A música também toca em temas de posse e pertencimento, com as linhas 'tudo foi feito para você e para mim' e 'tudo isso é seu e meu'. Isso pode ser visto como uma afirmação de que, apesar de sermos apenas passageiros nesta viagem que é a vida, ainda temos um direito inerente de desfrutar e reivindicar nossa parte nas experiências e belezas que o mundo tem a oferecer. The Passenger é uma celebração da vida vista de um assento secundário, onde a observação atenta é a chave para apreciar a jornada.
I am a passenger
Sou um passageiro
And I ride, and I ride
E eu rodo, e eu rodo
I ride through the city's backsides
Eu passeio pelos cantos da cidade
I see the stars come out of the sky
Eu vejo as estrelas aparecerem no céu
Yeah, they're bright in a hollow sky
Sim, elas são brilhantes num céu oco
You know it looks so good tonight
Você sabe que esta noite está tão boa
I am the passenger
Eu sou um passageiro
I stay under glass
E eu fico sob o vidro
I look through my window so bright
Eu olho através da minha janela tão clara
I see the stars come out tonight
Eu vejo as estrelas saírem do céu
I see the bright and hollow sky
Eu vejo o céu claro e oco
Over the city's ripped back sky
Sobre o céu da parte destruída da cidade
And everything looks good tonight
