Labels Or Love
Fergie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Manolo and Louis, it's all I'm thinking of
Shopping for labels, shopping for love
Manolo and Louis, it's all I'm thinking of
I already know what my addiction is
I be looking for labels, I ain't looking for love
I shop for purses while love walks out the door
Don't cry, buy a bag and get over it
And, I'm not concerned with all the politics
It's a lot of men I know I could find another.
What I know is that I'm always happy when I walk out the store (store)
store
I'm guessing Supercalifragi-sexy, nothing to be playing with
I love him, hate him, kiss him, diss him, tryna' to walk a mile in my kicks
Love's like a runway but which one do I love more?
No emotional baggage, just big bags filled with Dior
Love's like a runway, so what's all the fussing for?
Let's stop chasing those boys and shop some more.
One, two, one, two, three, turn the lights on
I know I might come off as negative
I be looking for labels, I ain't looking for love
But relationships are often so hard to tame
A Prada dress has never broken my heart before
And, ballin's something that I'm fed up with
I'mma do the damn thing, watch me do the damn thing
'Cause I know that my credit card will help me put out the flames (flames)
I guess Supercalifragi-sexy, nothing to be playing with
I love him, hate him, kiss him, diss him, tryna' to walk a mile in my kicks
Love's like a runway but which one do I love more?
No emotional baggage, just big bags filled with Dior
Love's like a runway, so what's all the fussing for?
Let's stop chasing those boys and shop some more.
One, two, one, two, three, turn the lights on.
Gucci, Fendi, Prada purses, purchasing them finer things
Men they come a dime a dozen, just give me them diamond rings
I'm into a lot of bling, Cadillac, Chanel and Coach
Fellas boast but they can't really handle my female approach
Buying things is hard to say
Rocking Christian Audigier, Manolo, Polo, taking photos in my Cartier
So we can't go all the way, I know you might hate it but
I'm a shop for labels while them ladies lay and wait for love
Oh, love's like a runway but which one do I love more?
No emotional baggage, just big bags filled with Dior
Love's like a runway, so what's all the fussing for?
Let's stop chasing those boys and shop some more
One, two, one, two, three, turn the lights on
Shopping for labels, shopping for love
Manolo and Louis, it's all I'm thinking of
Shopping for labels, shopping for love
Manolo and Louis, it's all I'm thinking of
In Fergie's song Labels Or Love, she explores the themes of materialism and love. She reveals that she is addicted to shopping for high-end brands and labels, such as Manolo and Louis. Fergie confesses that she is more interested in shopping for designer purses than in pursuing true love. She suggests that luxury items bring her more happiness than relationships do, saying that "a Prada dress has never broken my heart before."
Fergie seems to be a believer in the idea that money can't buy happiness, but it can certainly buy nice things that bring temporary joy. She acknowledges that relationships can be difficult and that she is not interested in dealing with the emotional baggage that comes with them. Instead, she prefers to fill her life with material objects that provide immediate satisfaction.
The chorus repeats the idea that love is like a runway, but Fergie is always left wondering which one she loves more. She encourages her listeners to stop chasing boys and to focus on shopping for more labels. In a way, Fergie is telling her fans that there is nothing wrong with prioritizing material possessions over love, as long as they are happy with their choices.
