Makin' Money: Rocking the Real Deal Bliss with a 80-Proof Twist
Lyrics
So you want to be a superstar here's a big big kiss
Expressing encouragement and support for aspiring fame with a metaphorical "big kiss."
You want a mess like this 'cause it's the real deal bliss
Desiring chaos and disorder because it leads to genuine happiness or satisfaction.
You got a face like this boy now you just can't miss
Highlighting the attractiveness of the person, suggesting guaranteed success.
You're smoking cheap cigars and drinking beer like piss well
Portraying a carefree lifestyle with vices like smoking cheap cigars and drinking beer.
I'm not me I'm not free
Denying one's true self or identity.
You're not mee you're not free
Emphasizing that the listener is also not authentic or liberated.
James Brown don't move like that you got to step and twist
Referencing James Brown's dance style and suggesting a need for a unique approach.
I got a six pack and an 80 proof fist
Boasting about physical strength with a six-pack and a reference to strong alcohol.
I get it, it's funny, you know I'm making money
Acknowledging the irony of the situation and humorously accepting the pursuit of wealth.
Not summer, but sunny. Cool like the Easter bunny
Contrasting the financial theme with a positive, carefree attitude akin to Easter festivities.
You get it, I'm on it, I got the milk and honey
Asserting success and prosperity with a metaphorical reference to "milk and honey."
You make me laugh - Ha ha ha
Repeatedly expressing laughter in response to the irony or humor of the pursuit of wealth.
You make me laugh - Ha ha ha
-You make me laugh - Ha ha ha
-I hear you want to be an icon like Madonna (like a virgin)
Referencing the desire for fame comparable to iconic figures like Madonna.
You ask yourself now do I? do I?
Pondering the commitment and determination required for achieving the desired fame.
Do I got to be a sucker slaving 9 to 5, and in the 5 to 9
Questioning the conventional work routine and expressing reluctance towards a 9-to-5 job.
You're fucking busy working overtime
Criticizing the busyness and extended working hours in pursuit of success.
I'm not me I'm not free
Reiterating the theme of not being true to oneself or experiencing freedom.
You're not me you're not free
-You don't got moves like this
Asserting uniqueness in dance moves and style compared to others.
You don't got style like this
-I'm not faking it, baby I'm making it
Asserting authenticity and genuine success, not pretending or faking it.
I get it, it's funny, you know I'm making money
Repeating the acknowledgment of the irony in the pursuit of wealth with a positive attitude.
Not summer, but sunny, cool like the Easter bunny
-You get it, I'm on it, I got the milk and honey
-You make me laugh - Ha ha ha
Repeating laughter as a response to the humorous aspects of the pursuit of money.
You make me laugh - Ha ha ha
-You make me laugh - Ha ha ha
