Who released a song based on a metaphor rephgering to the pattern of behavior seen in a group of crabs trapped in a bucket?
Crab mentality Crab mentality, sometimes referred to as crabs in the bucket (also barrel, basket or pot), is a way of thinking best described by the phrase, "if I can't have it, neither can you." The metaphor refers to a common pattern of behavior seen in a group crabs when they are trapped in a bucket; their focus on saving oneself rather than willing to cooperate to save the entire group. Individually, any given healthy crab could easily escape from the bucket, but when grouped with others any individual's escape will be hindered by others. They will grab at each other in a futile "king of the hill" fight for survival which eventually ensures their collective demise.
Monster (Lady Gaga song) "Monster" is a song by American singer Lady Gaga from her third extended play (EP), "The Fame Monster" (2009). Inspired by her "Fear of Attachment Monster", the record was written by Gaga, RedOne and Space Cowboy, with RedOne producing the track. Gaga had explained that "Monster" describes her fear of sex and relationships, and described the lyrics as being in love with the bad boy all the time, but instead of running away, one keeps going back to the same person. She added that the fear in "Monster" erupted from her need to have a stable relationship. Incorporating the usage of heavy bass lines, descending keyboard lines and "massive" choruses, "Monster" contains zombie-like metaphors and a reference to Gaga's debut single "Just Dance".
