I have two theories about this song. First: I think this song is about a girl who seems popular and trendy and rich but in reality all she has is her money from mom and dad to "keep her company". You know, like the bitch at everyone's average high school. She has money, has her posse, seems to have everything, but she doesn't work for what she has. Basically, her money keeps her company, and it comes straight from mom and daddy. That's my first theory. My second is that this girl is a prostitute, "shaking hands, nice to meet you, I don't know who you are" and when business gets slow she gets money from mom and dad. So this guy, um, you know, "buys her for the night" and, basically, "look what you're money bought, it's all that she's got, it keeps her company". She's a prostitute, she's not looking for love, she's looking for money.
