I Got Money Now Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 1]
When I was a young buck
I tried to be liked by
Everyone
Everyone
I tried so hard to be funny and nice
I tried so hard to be sugar and spice
Didn't work for me
Got old quickly
But now I'm not losing sleep at night
'Cause no one's calling me on the telephone
To see if I'm at home
'Cause now I've got everything that I have ever wanted
Or so it seems
Yeah, so it seems, yeah

[Chorus]
You don't have to like me anymore
I got money now
I don't care what you say about me anymore
I got money now
[Verse 2]
But when I got a little older, I realized, it's all lies
There is no prize
There is no prize
There is no heartache if you can afford
Everything delivered right to your door
Responsibilities
This life is easy
So now, the girl with everything
How could she complain?
'Cause she's got it made
Yeah, she's got it made
I don't need to be tucked in at night
And told that everything is gonna be alright
Is gonna be alright
'Cause I don't have to fight

[Chorus]
You don't have to like me anymore
I got money now
I don't care what you say about me anymore
I got money now

[Verse 3]
I wouldn't trade a dollar for some sense
I wouldn't trade a lifetime for some friends
'Cause I've got everything
And all is what it seems
I worked so hard all of my life
Just to have things I could call mine
So I don't need no love
'Cause I have got enough
So now I don't mind being alone all the time
It's alright
'Cause I got money now
That's what it's all about
And I'm so busy buyin' things and traveling the world
I don't have time for friends
Or family
And that's fine with me
Or so it seems
[Chorus]
You don't have to like me anymore
I got money now (Oh)
I don't care what you say about me anymore
I got money now (Yeah)
You don't have to like me anymore (Anymore)
I got money now (I got money now)
I don't care what you say about me anymore
'Cause I got money now

About

Genius Annotation

Like many of P!nk’s writings, the lyrics in this song are riddled with sarcasm. She says that since she has come into money, she has no need for relationships because she can buy whatever she needs to make her happy. But the truth of the matter is, she wants to be loved and taken care of, but no one is around because they assume she can take care of herself.
