Price Tag Lyrics

Seems like everybody's got a price, I wonder how they sleep at night. When the sale comes first, And the truth comes second, Just stop, for a minute and Smile Why is everybody so serious! Acting so damn mysterious Got your shades on your eyes And your heels so high That you can't even have a good time. Everybody look to their left (yeah) Everybody look to their right (ha) Can you feel that (yeah) We're paying with love tonight... It's not about the money, money, money We don't need your money, money, money We just wanna make the world dance, Forget about the Price Tag Ain't about the (ha) Cha-Ching Cha-Ching. Ain't about the (yeah) Ba-Bling Ba-Bling Wanna make the world dance, Forget about the Price Tag. We need to take it back in time, When music made us all UNITE! And it wasn't low blows and video Hoes, Am I the only one gettin... tired? Why is everybody so obsessed? Money can't buy us happiness Can we all slow down and enjoy right now Guarantee we'll be feelin All right. Everybody look to their left (yeah) Everybody look to their right (ha) Can you feel that (yeah) We're paying with love tonight... It's not about the money, money, money We don't need your money, money, money We just wanna make the world dance, Forget about the Price Tag Ain't about the (ha) Cha-Ching Cha-Ching. Ain't about the (yeah) Ba-Bling Ba-Bling Wanna make the world dance, Forget about the Price Tag. Yeah yeah Well, keep the price tag And take the cash back Just give me six strings and a half step And you can keep the cars Leave me the garage And all I... Yes all I need are keys and guitars And guess what, in 30 seconds I'm leaving to Mars Yes we leaving across these undefeatable odds It's like this man, you can't put a price on life We do this for the love so we fight and sacrifice everynight So we ain't gon stumble and fall never Waiting to see, a sign of defeat uh uh So we gon keep everyone moving there feet So bring back the beat and everyone will sing It's not about... It's not about the money, money, money We don't need your money, money, money We just wanna make the world dance, Forget about the Price Tag Ain't about the (ha) Cha-Ching Cha-Ching. Ain't about the (yeah) Ba-Bling Ba-Bling Wanna make the world dance, Forget about the Price Tag. It's not about the money, money, money We don't need your money, money, money We just wanna make the world dance, Forget about the Price Tag Ain't about the (ha) Cha-Ching Cha-Ching. Ain't about the (yeah) Ba-Bling Ba-Bling Wanna make the world dance, Forget about the Price Tag. Yeah yeah Oo-oooh Forget about the price tag

Meaning of Price Tag

“Price Tag” by Jessie J is a vibrant and defiant anthem against the pervasive commodification of life and relationships in the modern era. The core theme revolves around rejecting the societal pressure to assign monetary value to everything – love, happiness, and even experiences – ultimately arguing that true fulfillment lies beyond material possessions. The song’s narrative unfolds as a frustrated observation of a world consumed by superficiality; Jessie J critiques individuals who prioritize “the sale” and “truth comes second,” symbolized by their detached demeanor, extravagant appearances (“heels so high”), and obsession with wealth ("Cha-Ching Cha-Ching," "Ba-Bling Ba-Bling"). The repeated call to “forget about the Price Tag” isn't simply a dismissal of money, but a passionate plea for reconnection – a yearning to return to a time when music fostered unity and genuine emotion. Jessie J’s message is powerfully assertive, urging listeners to reclaim their joy and resist being manipulated by the relentless pursuit of status symbols. The latter half of the song introduces an almost surreal escape fantasy: trading cars and riches for musical instruments and a garage, signifying a desire for authentic expression and creative freedom. The final verses build towards a triumphant declaration that life itself is priceless, justifying sacrifice and unwavering dedication to love. It’s a rallying cry against disillusionment, encouraging listeners to “keep the price tag” and instead embrace a world where connection, creativity, and shared experience – not financial gain – are truly valued. The song's energetic delivery and layered production amplify this message, solidifying it as a contemporary statement on prioritizing human connection over material wealth.
