Figurative Language in a Song
Legendary Lovers
For the song I picked is called Legendary Lovers by Katy Perry. I will show three examples of Figurative Language
Heres some examples
Beating like a Drum
In the line when she says "keep my heart betting like a drum" what she means is keep her heart betting. This line is a Simile because it is using the word like. That means it is comparing something
Historical Women
Another line is "you're Cleopatra, you're blushing Juliet." Which means that your beauty that a mystery because Cleopatra lived years age and now no one really knows how she looks. On the other side Juliet is a fictional character but is descrided and shown beautiful. This line is a Metaphor.
Legendary Lovers
When is says "legendary lovers we can be legendary" it is a Hyperbole because Hyperbole are exaggerations and to be a Legend it would have to a long time and to be Legendary
Legendary
