Rich

Yeah Yeah Yeahs

I'm rich
Like a hot noise
Rich rich rich
I'll take you out, boy
So stuck up
I wish you'd stick in to me
Flesh ripped off
Raw

Hey!
Turnin' it
Beatin' no beat
The walls are always speakin'
No want no want no want no speakin' at all

She slipped
Down a rot drink
Unzipped
She doesn't exist
So unloved
I took 'em standin' up
So stuck up
Raw

I'm rich
Like a hot noise
Rich rich rich
I'll take you out, boy
I'll take you out, boy

Hey!
Turnin' it
Beatin' no beat
The walls are always speakin'
No want no want no want no speakin' at all
Turnin' it
Beatin' no beat
The walls are always speakin'
No want no want no want no speakin' at all

(Rich rich rich rich rich)
(Rich rich rich rich rich rich)
(Rich rich rich rich rich rich)
(Rich rich rich rich rich rich)

Rich rich rich rich rich rich
Rich rich rich rich rich rich
Rich rich rich rich rich rich

    General CommentIt's sex.

    It's the kind of song that sucks the virginity right out of you.

    General CommentReally, I think that this song is not really about sex or date rape at all.
    In fact, I think it is about the cynicism of being rich. I think about how money gets wasted on young rich/ spoiled/ jaded people... such as Paris Hilton. Her only talent is high class hooking ( and she isn't very good at it, according to the T.V.)

    General Commentit's about fucking around, it's a dirty debased sexy sexy song.

    "Won't you stick it to me"


    "I'll take you out, boy"


    "slipped down a rot drink" as well...she might have been spiked, dateraped, or whatever at this point ""unzipped, she doesn't exist" it's happening, she's too out of it on it all.

    "took it standing up," she doesn't really seem to care. It's still a very sexual song. Being a dirty ho, loving it. Raaawr indeed.

    General CommentWell...It's about a girl that got drunk or took drugs and had sex:
    I'm Rich
    like a hot noise
    I'll take you out boy
    so stuck up
    wish you'd stick in to me
    flesh ripped off
    raaaawr
    and then she had hangover and felt awful like if the walls are talking and stuff
    turnin it beatin no beat
    the walls are always speakin
