Pumped Up Kicks is a song by the American indie pop band Foster the People. The song, which is arguably the band’s most famous song till date, has lyrics that are written from the point of view of a very troubled young man filled with homicidal thoughts and intentions. Speaking with CNN, Foster the People frontman Mark Foster said he wrote the song after reading about the shocking rise in teenage mental illness in America. According to Foster, while writing the song, he said his aim was to enter the mind of an isolated and psychotic youth and try to bring to the attention of Americans the issue of gun violence among American youth – a problem Foster feels is caused by things such as lack of love and isolation. The phrase “pumped up kicks”, which is the title of the song, refers to a type of expensive sneakers that only the rich could afford. And the other kids whom the troubled kid wants to murder own pairs of these “pumped up kicks”, which clearly shows that they are more privileged than he is. In the lyrics, it is not made clear the motive behind the troubled youth’s homicidal thoughts. Could it be as a result of jealousy? Could it be because he was bullied by the other kids? Or could it just be as a result of his mental illness getting the better part of him? We don’t exactly know what his motive is. But what we do know from the song’s lyrics is that he is planning a mass shooting. The line in which Foster sings about one Robert having a “quick hand” has been over the years said to refer to the 19-year-old gunman Robert A. Hawkins who perpetrated the notorious Westroads Mall shooting in Omaha, Nebraska, on 5th December, 2007. The incident claimed the lives of 9 people, including the perpetrator and left six others injured. Despite the band’s publicist denying that, Foster and the other members of the band are yet to deny or confirm the speculations. It is noteworthy that over the years, Pumped Up Kicks has been criticized by a number of people for glamorizing and promoting youth violence. Many even called radio stations to express their displeasure about the song’s lyrics. However, according to Foster, instead of condoning violence, the song is rather doing the exact opposite.

Questions and Answers Robert, the main character and narrator of the song, dreams of violence towards his rich classmates and peers. The song details his plans and ambitions for a school shooting, diving deep into the causes of his emotions. During a 2011 Rolling Stone interview, Foster said: I was trying to get inside the head of an isolated, psychotic kid. Although this song is peppy and upbeat, Foster uses this to mask the true meaning of the song, and makes for a beautiful yet haunting composition, a tension which he referenced in the same interview: It’s a ‘fuck you’ song to the hipsters in a way – but it’s a song the hipsters are going to want to dance to. Despite many believing that this song condones and encourages violence, Foster said otherwise in a 2011 USA Today interview: The song is not about condoning violence at all. It’s the complete opposite. The song is an amazing platform to have a conversation with your kids about something that shouldn’t be ignored, to talk about it in a loving way.
