Abstract

Metaphor is a form of figurative language. Songwriters use metaphors to make it easier for listeners to understand the meaning of song lyrics. This research aims to discover the types of metaphors, the meaning, and the function of metaphors in four selected Katy Perry songs. The method used to conduct this study is descriptive qualitative. This research method was carried out in three stages: data collection methods, data analysis methods, and methods of presenting the results of data analysis. Data collection was carried out using non-participant techniques and note-taking techniques. The data in this study are four lyrics of Katy Perry's song entitled Firework, Part of Me, Dark Horse, and Roar. The research found that there are four types of metaphors in Katy Perry’s songs: animal metaphors, anthropomorphic metaphors, concrete to abstract metaphors, and synesthetic metaphors. The use of metaphor in Katy Perry's song contains some functions, they are information, expressive, and directive functions. The results show that Katy Perry's songs tend to function as information to campaign for problems experienced by women, such as insecurity and the masculine side of women. Keywords: metaphor, types of metaphor, functions of metaphor, song, Katy perry
