Fuck Me Pumps
Amy Winehouse - [Frank - Deluxe Edition] Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And you dressed like a star
Rockin' your F me pumps
And the men notice you
With your Gucci bag crew
Can't tell who he's lookin' to
'Cause you all look the same
Everyone knows your name
And that's your whole claim to fame
Never miss a night
'Cause your dream in life
Is to be a footballer's wife
You don't like players
That's what you say-a
But you really wouldn't mind a millionaire
You don't like ballers
They don't do nothing for ya
But you'd love a rich man six foot two or taller
You're more than a fan
Lookin' for a man
But you end up with one-night-stands
He could be your whole life
If you got past one night
But that part never goes right
In the morning you're vexed
He's onto the next
And you didn't even get no text
Don't be too upset
If they call you a sket
'Cause like the news everyday you get pressed
You don't like players
That's what you say-a
But you really wouldn't mind a millionaire
Or them big ballers
Don't do nothing for ya
But you'd love a rich man six foot two or taller
You can't sit down right
'Cause your jeans are too tight
And you're lucky it's ladies night
With your big empty purse
Every week it gets worse
At least your breasts cost more than hers
So you did Miami
'Cause you got there for free
But somehow you missed the plane
You did too much E
Met somebody
And spent the night getting caned
Without girls like you
There'd be no fun
We'd go to the club and not see anyone
Without girls like you
There's no nightlife
All those men just go home to their wives
Don't be mad at me
'Cause you're pushing thirty
And your old tricks no longer work
You should have known from the jump
That you always get dumped
So dust off your fuck me pumps
The song "Fuck Me Pumps" by Amy Winehouse is a satirical commentary on young women's obsession with money and materialism. The song starts with the depiction of a woman entering a bar, dressed like a star, and wearing her fuck me pumps. The men in the bar notice her immediately, but they can't tell who she's looking for because all the girls in the group look the same. The girl's only claim to fame is that everyone knows her name, and she never misses a night because her dream is to be a footballer's wife.
Amy Winehouse criticizes this kind of woman who claims not to like players but wouldn't mind marrying a millionaire. The woman loves a rich man who is six feet two inches or taller, which shows how materialistic she is. The song portrays that these girls are more than a fan looking for a man, but they end up with only one-night-stands. Although they could have a whole life with some of their one-night-stands, the morning after, he's onto the next, and she didn't even get a text. The song critiques a culture that promotes this kind of behavior and represents it as empowering when it is only disempowering for the women involved.
Amy Winehouse adds that such girls cannot sit down right because their jeans are too tight, and they are lucky it's ladies night. They carry an expensive empty purse, and every week it gets worse, but at least their breasts cost more than hers. The song mocks these women who go to Miami because they got there for free, but somehow they missed the plane. They take too much E, meet somebody, and spend the night getting caned, and ultimately, always end up alone.

When you walk in the bar
As you enter the bar
And you dressed like a star
And you're fashionably dressed
Rockin' your F me pumps
Wearing your high heels
And the men notice you
And the men are attracted to you
With your Gucci bag crew
You have your stylish friends with you
Can't tell who he's lookin' to
It's difficult to identify who he's interested in
'Cause you all look the same
Because all of you have the same appearance
Everyone knows your name
Everyone recognizes you
And that's your whole claim to fame
And that's the reason for your fame
Never miss a night
You never miss a night out
'Cause your dream in life
Because your life goal
Is to be a footballer's wife
Is to marry a footballer
You don't like players
You claim that you don't like men who play games
That's what you say-a
That's what you claim
But you really wouldn't mind a millionaire
But you wouldn't really mind a millionaire
You don't like ballers
You don't like basketball players
They don't do nothing for ya
They don't impress you
But you'd love a rich man six foot two or taller
But you desire a tall affluent man
You're more than a fan
You're more than just a fan
Lookin' for a man
Searching for a man
But you end up with one-night-stands
But you typically have casual sexual encounters
He could be your whole life
He could be your entire life
If you got past one night
If you got beyond one night
But that part never goes right
But that part never works out
In the morning you're vexed
In the morning you're annoyed
He's onto the next
He's onto the next woman
And you didn't even get no text
And you didn't even receive a message
Don't be too upset
Don't be too disappointed
If they call you a sket
If they call you a promiscuous woman
'Cause like the news everyday you get pressed
Because like the news, you get scrutinized everyday
You can't sit down right
You're uncomfortable sitting down
'Cause your jeans are too tight
Because your jeans are too tight-fitting
And you're lucky it's ladies night
And you're fortunate that it's ladies night
With your big empty purse
With your large but empty purse
Every week it gets worse
It gets worse every week
At least your breasts cost more than hers
At least your breasts cost more than hers
So you did Miami
So you went to Miami
'Cause you got there for free
Because you got there without paying
But somehow you missed the plane
But you missed the flight somehow
You did too much E
You took too much ecstasy
Met somebody
Met someone
And spent the night getting caned
And spent the night getting high on drugs
Without girls like you
Without women like you
There'd be no fun
There would be no fun
We'd go to the club and not see anyone
We'd go to the club and not see anyone
Without girls like you
Without women like you
There's no nightlife
There's no nightlife
All those men just go home to their wives
All those men just go home to their wives
Don't be mad at me
Don't be angry at me
'Cause you're pushing thirty
Because you're almost thirty years old
And your old tricks no longer work
And your old tactics are no longer effective
You should have known from the jump
You should have known from the beginning
That you always get dumped
That you always get rejected
So dust off your fuck me pumps
So put back on your high heels
