If You Can Afford Me Song/Lyrics

[MintyButterfly]

I like this song :) It shows guys that girls aren't just an accessory, an item that they can throw away any time after one use; it shows that girls are treasures that they should hold and cherish if they wish to keep them. i really like this song. Way to go Katy Perry! :D

[hinasakukimi]

I'll give you a thumbs up if you like Katy Perry! ^^

[xox1alysia1xox]

Basically, she's saying she isn't a sl*t, because it says: If you want me, I'm not a piece of ass, a one night stand, a storage shed

if you read all the lyrics carefully, instead of just presuming the worst, you will see that she is saying she is worth more than just a one night stand,

and so their love better mean something, like someone else said, it is a giant metaphor, how clever (:

Also, I LOVE this song x

[xox1alysia1xox]

I don't think "SWeidner007" has noticed this whole song isn't about money;

when she says "don't make a bet if you can't write the cheque", she means, don't say you love me if you can't back it up,

when she says that she can be bought, she means with love,

when she says that "you'll pay the cost if you can't afford me" she means that you will lose her if you can't love her enough.

And right at the start when she says it takes more than a drink, more than a wink, she means she's not cheap. x

[Simone21295]

Katy Perry is awesum

[cooleogirl97]

scrw u fagot

[SWeidner007]

this song sends a horrible message to the new generation of girls, no wonder everyone is so materialistic, with these songs and jennifer lopez songs with rocks that I got, no wonder girls wont take any responsibility for being involved in a relationship, they always think guys should buy them out which is stupid, especially for any respectable guy to have to deal with such an unrealistic reality..... Dating is an exchange of feelings, not paying from a checkbook

[sk1017kp]

Have you even listened to the entire song? 1 Minute and 37 seconds in she sings "But I don't need your dollar bills, I just want something real. Cause nothings free, Except loving me..." The songs a giant metaphor. Shes saying spoil her with love not money.

Good day

[sausage4231]

i also think that money is a metaphor for being expensive, as in valuable. uses the 2 meanings as a sort of twist.

[sausage4231]

i agree with sk1017kp, although you are right in a way, because the catchy part is the only part most people are going to register...she should have put more emphasis on the messege. in my opinion, however, as soon as i heard the words, i understood it as...well, lets just say...'sarcasm'. angry of what people take girls for. she is speaking out to the group of people who fit the description.

[cakessssbabessss]

she's saying she doesn't want a one night stand or to be pulled cheaply at a ber :S

[gnitegracie]

I think this song is more about "paying" with your emotions. Katy goes on and on about how she's "not a piece of ass."

The line "I don't need your dollar bills, I just want something real. Cause nothing's free, except loving me" completely smashes the notion that she means "paying" with money. I think she means to pay with time and love.

[bookwormGirl123]

i love this song. me and my dance class put together a jazz combination to this. :D

[krussill98]

why would you write that on a video? seriously! :(

[RocccNick]

I like this song

[mama3alabama33]

then she says

but i dont need your dollar bills

i just want somthin real

cause nothin is free

except lovin me

[nyqtpie1134]

meena and randomgirl r right. Its not about money at all. Its pretty much talking about how much you love her.

[96nmb]

i love this song but there are lots of spelling mistakes n i dont no wether im right but my opninion is shes talking about money and love u have to love me but u can pay the check once in a while if u no wer im goin

[randomgirl177]

but shes nott talkingg about moneyy u dont get da message of the song,u haf 2 luv her right u dont haf payyy its a niiice song make bad comments on ur own vidss not other ppls

[k1ttykat01]

i don't like the messege..it encourages vanity...that the only thing that counts in a relationship it's money..it's wrong...money doesn't counts

[meena19]

thats not wut she's saying tho

money isn't the message

[k1ttykat01]

yes it what she is saying,if you can afford me,you are paying the bill,if you want me you have to break the bank,write the check for me,i can be bought?is bad enough that guys consider the majority of girls just some sluts,hungry for their money,just some moneysuckers,now female singers make this kind of songs to say that being like that is good?for normal girls is harder and harder to live in this world,all those years where women fought for their rights are wasted cuz of this kind of examples

[meena19]

she's not talking about money

she's talking about love

"don't play cheap with your heart"

she's saying that u have to love her right

"i don't want your dollar bills, i just want something real cause nothing's free except loving me"

if this song wee about money she wouldn't be singnig this

[RachelLovato799]

god, meena is right. money isn't the message. katy means that love is an important thing, and that's what she's singing about.

"I don't want your dollar bills, I want something real."

Don't think that the word Price means all about money.
