Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Beyoncé’s song “PURE/HONEY" are playful and cheeky, playing off the title of the song itself as both a pun and a challenge to listeners. The repeated use of “cunt” and “cunty” in the lyrics re-appropriates a historically sexist and derogatory term and reclaims it as a positive descriptor of female sexuality and empowerment. This connotation is reinforced with lyrics like “feminine to pussy cunt,” emphasizing the connection between femininity and sexual power.


The song itself is a celebration of femininity and self-expression, with lines like “Bad bitches to the left / Money bitches to the right / You can be both, meet in the middle, dance all night” calling out the societal pressures to choose between being “bad” or “money” and instead urging women to just be themselves. The chorus of “get your money, money, cunty, hunty / don't be funny with my money, honey” further emphasizes this theme of women taking control of their own lives and desires.


Overall, the lyrics to “PURE/HONEY” serve as a powerful anthem for female empowerment and sexual liberation, challenging traditional gender roles and societal expectations. Through playful wordplay and a catchy beat, the song encourages listeners to embrace their own sexual power and individuality.
