Pop Song Lyrics

[Intro]
Girl, I'm a sexually attractive man, that makes me a good artist
This is my new single, I hope you like it

[Verse 1]
Wealthy men hired me
To sing this song that they wrote for me
They're investing in this pricey music video
And they're paying to get it played on the radio (On the radio)
And they're gonna sell a million (A million)
Yes, it's gonna go platinum

[Chorus]
'Cause they market this song to young, impressionable, and insecure teenage girls
'Cause all you gotta say is "Ooh baby, I love you" and "Girl, I need you in my world"
Yes, they market this song to young, impressionable, and insecure teenage girls
'Cause all they gotta do is find a sexually attractive man that can sing all the words

[Bridge]
And now the token rap verse that doesn't make any sense
But helps to get a small percentage of the urban music market

[Verse 2]
Hey baby, baby, I can tell that you are crazy, crazy
Shake that ass, girl, my rhymes are gettin' lazy, lazy
These things I'm talkin' 'bout have nothin' to do with the song, baby
But it don't matter; won't you show me that thong, baby?
That's how it works in the pop music industry
2010, motherfucker, that's just how it be
[Chorus]
'Cause they market this song to young, impressionable, and insecure teenage girls
'Cause all you gotta say is "Ooh baby, I love you" and "Girl, I need you in my world"
Yes, they market this song to young, impressionable, and insecure teenage girls
'Cause all they gotta do is find a sexually attractive man that can sing all the words

[Verse 3]
Now I'm singin' with my gay voice
To let you know that I am sensitive
Oh yeah, I'm singin' with my gay voice
Teenage girls love a sensitive voice (Sensitive voice)
And you know I wanna
Make money, money, make money, money, make money
Make money, money, make money, money, make money
Make money, money, make money, money, make money
(Rich men makin' money off of their investment)
Make money, money, make money, money, make money
(Ooh, it's so sexual, baby)

[Outro]
Girl, I love you so much, I wish we could be together
Unfortunately, we can't, because I'm rich and famous and you're not...
But why don't you just go out and buy my album?
And tell your friends about it, too, so that they also go out and buy it?

  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
