When I talk you should listen
All of you belong to me
Come on, we should get it going
Now what I want is specific
Respect what I have done for thee
The ruler and the killer baby

This song was written for The Hunger Games specifically. Whenever I listen to it, I always think of President Snow & Seneca Crane. President Snow being "The Ruler" because he rules Panem & has complete control over it. Seneca Crane (The Head Gamemaker) being "The Killer" because he controls how the actual Hunger Games are played out in the arena. This is my interpretation, but I'm about %99 sure this is what it's about because the song is pretty self-explanatory.
As mahoganyfox said, the song is pretty self explanatory if you've read the books. Although, I think this song is just about Snow. He is the ruler of Panem and he's letting them all die.
"When I talk you should listen All of you belong to me Come on, we should get it going Now what I want is specific Respect what I have done for thee The ruler and the killer, baby"
I mean that's pretty self explanatory itself, isn't it?
"You don’t talk, you don’t say nothing, OK?"
You don't speak against him, you don't say anything to him. hah
"Listen to me Keep your mind on the mission Remember you belong to me Come on, we should get it going Now what I want is specific You putting on a show for me"
Him telling the tributes to get on with the Games.
"Survival of the fittest, hey hey Lose and you will answer to me"
The fittest being the victor. Losing meant they died.
Perhaps Snow should send messages if he wishes to talk. That's what real people do:)
I think that whenever he's saying "hey, hey" and "yeah, yeah" it's kind of like President Snow laughing at the citizens of the districts, because in the book, he never gets upset, he just has a mocking smile on his face.
Obviously this is about snow. He rules, and if he wishes it, you will be killed. I love this song, it captures the epitome of snow so well.
it kinda sounds like could have a sex slave as well
i always thought this song was written for Cato.
