Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Rich bitch (yo yo yo yo)
Rich bitch (yo yo yo Yo-Landi)
I'm a rich bitch (yo yo yo yo)
A mothafuckin' rich bitch (yo yo yo Yo-Landi)
I do my own thing when the phone rings
Maybe I'll answer,
I'm on next shit
I got connections
Only speak to, people I wanna speak to
Sophisticated, fuckin' larney
Nutella on my sarmie
Fokken dik gesmeer, bra
I shop at Woolworths
With my own paper, eh, flavor
On the fuckin' microphone (yo yo yo Yo-Landi)
Rich bitch (yo yo yo yo)
Rich bitch (yo yo yo Yolandi)
I'm a rich bitch (yo yo yo yo)
A mothafuckin' rich bitch (yo yo yo Yo-Landi)
Rich bitch (yo yo yo yo)
Rich bitch (yo yo yo Yolandi)
I'm a rich bitch (yo yo yo yo)
A mothafuckin' rich bitch (yo yo yo Yo-Landi)
Wasn't always a rich bitch
Used to be a poor girl
Ag, shame, die arme meisie
Ek wassie wysie (yo yo yo Yo-Landi)
I was a victim of a kak situation
A stalk in the system
With no fuckkin' assistance
I know it sounds strange
But I used to count change
On the counter at pick 'n pay
Or Shoprite-Checkers
No butter on my broodjie
Geen koeldrank nie, net my strootjie
But then I got my game on
Yo flame on (yo yo yo Yo-Landi)
Now I'm a rich bitch (yo yo yo yo)
Rich bitch (yo yo yo Yo-Landi)
I'm a rich bitch (yo yo yo yo)
A mothafuckin' rich bitch (yo yo yo Yo-Landi)
Rich bitch (yo yo yo yo)
Rich bitch (yo yo yo Yo-Landi)
I'm a rich bitch (yo yo yo yo)
A mothafuckin' rich bitch (yo yo yo Yo-Landi)
To all my means sir
In a tart situation
Getting closer to god
Do you hear that?
I flow from the heart
Fuck the upper class
Versigtig, ek's nog steeds fokken giftig
Yo, fuck a rich bitch (yo yo yo Yo-Landi)
Rich bitch (yo yo yo yo)
Rich bitch (yo yo yo Yo-Landi)
I'm a rich bitch (yo yo yo yo)
A mothafuckin' rich bitch (yo yo yo Yo-Landi)
Rich bitch (yo yo yo yo)
Rich bitch (yo yo yo Yo-Landi)
I'm a rich bitch (yo yo yo yo)
A mothafuckin' rich bitch (yo yo yo Yo-Landi)
Eh
Sk sk
Kyk hie'
DJ Hi-Tek
Fuck it
Wha, wha
Wha, wha, wha, wha
The lyrics to Die Antwoord's song "Rich Bitch" are a celebration of wealth and success. Yolandi, the lead vocalist, describes herself as a "rich bitch" and revels in the pleasures of her wealth. She sings about doing her own thing and only answering the phone when she feels like it, indicating that she is free to live life on her terms. Yolandi has connections and only speaks to those she wants to, showing her exclusivity and high social status. She enjoys the finer things in life, such as Nutella on her sarmies (sandwiches) and shopping at Woolworths (a high-end grocery store in South Africa). Yolandi also acknowledges her humble beginnings, having counted change at a supermarket in the past. However, she has made it now and enjoys being a "rich bitch".
The song's chorus repeats the phrase "rich bitch" several times, emphasizing the importance and value of wealth. Yolandi is unapologetic about her success and urges others to strive for the same. She raps about being "fokken giftig" (fucking toxic) and not caring about the upper class, showing her disdain for high society and her willingness to flaunt her wealth.
"Rich Bitch" is a catchy and energetic song that celebrates materialism and success. The lyrics are tongue-in-cheek and are meant to be taken with a grain of salt, but they also convey a sense of freedom and empowerment that comes with financial independence.

U mean with that sentence that you can silence all the little demons that push you to work for having a roof over your head? Find something that you can identify with and you won‘t have to comfort yourself with those little lies to your once beautiful soul. Stupid.
