Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They don't understand me, prolly 'cause I'm fancy, ooh, ooh
Prolly 'cause I'm fancy, uh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-ohh
Prolly 'cause I'm fancy, uh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-ohh
You would think I'm royal, baby look so spoiled
Mommy brush this dirt off, like I own this soil
Prolly 'cause I'm fancy, uh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-ohh
Prolly 'cause I'm fancy, uh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-ohh
Yuh, baby how I come across
Honey if you pay, I talk (I talk)
Prolly love the way I floss (I)
Make you feel a type of way
Fuck 'bout what you say though
Never miss a meal like Ross
'Bout to flip a mil like Ross, ayy
They don't know me 'hind closed doors, ayy
You could never find me losin', I bet you the boss
But baby I'm bossy
Used to be daughter, they call me mother now
Treatin' me like no other
Swag underwater, bread in the butter now
Wallet, wallet in pocket, pocket
Give five to the valet and she park it, park it
No games but I'm ballin', call it crocket, crocket
I'm a target but I never shop at Target, got it?
All my fellas, they be actin' jealous
They don't understand me, prolly 'cause I'm fancy, ooh, ooh
Prolly 'cause I'm fancy, uh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-ohh
Prolly 'cause I'm fancy, uh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-ohh
You would think I'm royal, baby look so spoiled
Mommy brush this dirt off, like I own this soil
Prolly 'cause I'm fancy, uh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-ohh
Prolly 'cause I'm fancy, uh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-ohh
It get lonely at the top, I'ma stack my guap
I'ma make 'em dance, chain all on my neck
Drank all on my dress, four hunnid a pop
Lonely at the top, I'ma stack my guap
I'ma make 'em dance, chain all on my neck
Drank all on my dress, four hunnid a pop
All my fellas, they be actin' jealous
They don't understand me, prolly 'cause I'm fancy, ooh, ooh
Prolly 'cause I'm fancy, uh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-ohh
Prolly 'cause I'm fancy, uh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-ohh
You would think I'm royal, baby look so spoiled
Mommy brush this dirt off, like I own this soil
Prolly 'cause I'm fancy, uh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-ohh
Prolly 'cause I'm fancy, uh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-ohh
In the song "Fancy", Doja Cat addresses the jealousy and misunderstanding she receives from men. She attributes their negative attitudes towards her to the fact that she is "fancy", perhaps suggesting that they feel intimidated by her high-class lifestyle. She likens herself to royalty, suggesting that she is both privileged and haughty. However, she also recognizes the hard work she puts in to maintain her position, brushing off dirt from her clothes as if she owns the land. She then continues to flex her wealth, with lyrics about not missing a meal and making huge profits. Despite the attention and notoriety she receives, she remains lonely at the top, but believes that her hard work will pay off in the end.
Overall, the song is a commentary on the potential backlash and judgement that can come with success and a luxurious lifestyle. Doja Cat both embraces and critiques her own status, acknowledging that it is not always easy to navigate.

All my fellas, they be actin' jealous
My male acquaintances seem to envy me
They don't understand me, prolly 'cause I'm fancy, ooh, ooh
Their lack of comprehension may stem from my posh lifestyle
You would think I'm royal, baby look so spoiled
Observing my appearance, one might assume I have a regal status and am used to being catered to
Mommy brush this dirt off, like I own this soil
The way my mother tends to my needs is reminiscent of how someone owns and cares for their own land
Yuh, baby how I come across
I wonder how I appear to others
Honey if you pay, I talk (I talk)
If you offer me compensation, I'll chat with you
Prolly love the way I floss (I)
My lavish display of wealth is probably what you admire about me
Fuck 'bout what you say though
I don't care what you have to say
Never miss a meal like Ross
Like Rick Ross, I never forego indulging in food
'Bout to flip a mil like Ross, ayy
I'm about to make a fortune like Rick Ross
They don't know me 'hind closed doors, ayy
No one truly knows me when I'm not in the public eye
You could never find me losin', I bet you the boss
I'm always winning and I'm confident enough to bet on it
But baby I'm bossy
I'm assertive and like to take charge
Used to be daughter, they call me mother now
I've grown up and have now become the one who takes care of others
Swag underwater, bread in the butter now
I have an abundance of style and financial stability now
Wallet, wallet in pocket, pocket
My money is always with me
Give five to the valet and she park it, park it
I tip the valet five dollars to park my car
No games but I'm ballin', call it crocket, crocket
I'm living life to the fullest and spending a lot of money, but I'm not playing games
I'm a target but I never shop at Target, got it?
People may want to come after me for my wealth, but I don't even shop at a store as common as Target
It get lonely at the top, I'ma stack my guap
Being wealthy and successful can be isolating, but I'll keep accumulating money
I'ma make 'em dance, chain all on my neck
I'll entertain and impress people with my music and my flashy jewelry
Drank all on my dress, four hunnid a pop
I spill expensive drinks on my clothing and it doesn't even faze me
