Price Tag
Fréro Delavega Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Seems like everybody's got a price,
I wonder how they sleep at night.
When the sale comes first,
And the truth comes second,
Just stop, for a minute and
Smile

Why is everybody so serious!
Acting so damn mysterious
Got your shades on your eyes
And your heels so high
That you can't even have a good time.

Everybody look to their left
Everybody look to their right
Can you feel that (yeah)
We're paying with love tonight

It's not about the money, money, money
We don't need your money, money, money
We just wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the price tag

Ain't about the cha-ching cha-ching.
Ain't about the ba-bling ba-bling
Wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the price tag.

We need to take it back in time,
When music made us all unite!
And it wasn't low blows and video hoes,
Am I the only one getting tired?

Why is everybody so obsessed?
Money can't buy us happiness
Can we all slow down and enjoy right now
Guarantee we'll be feeling all right.

Everybody look to their left
Everybody look to their right
Can you feel that (yeah)
We're paying with love tonight

It's not about the money, money, money
We don't need your money, money, money
We just wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the price tag

Ain't about the cha-ching cha-ching.
Ain't about the ba-bling ba-bling
Wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the price tag.

Lalalalalalala
Lalalalalalala
Lalalalalalala, price tag
(Ain't about the) Lalalalalalala
(Ain't about the) Lalalalalalala
(World dance) Lalalalalalala
Price tag

It's not about the money, money, money
We don't need your money, money, money
We just wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the price tag

Ain't about the cha-ching cha-ching.
Ain't about the ba-bling ba-bling
Wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the price tag.





Ba-bling ba-bling, wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the price tag

Line by Line Meaning

Seems like everybody's got a price,
It appears as though everyone values something, are willing to sell their integrity and compromise their own moral values and beliefs to get it.


I wonder how they sleep at night.
I can't help but question how these individuals rest at night knowing they betrayed their own beliefs and values for what they perceived as personal gain.


When the sale comes first,
Some people prioritize the amount of money or personal gain they can get from a transaction over the authenticity or fairness of the deal.


And the truth comes second,
Instead of practicing transparency and honesty, some people would rather hide the truth to ensure they are getting what they want from a transaction.


Just stop, for a minute and Smile
Take a moment to appreciate the present and positive aspects of life, and not be so focused on personal gain.


Why is everybody so serious!
Why is everyone acting so uptight and disengaged from the joy and fun things that life brings?


Acting so damn mysterious
People are being reserved and uncommunicative, giving off an unapproachable or uninvolved vibe.


Got your shades on your eyes And your heels so high That you can't even have a good time.
You're so focused on keeping up appearances and pretending to be someone you're not that you are missing out on enjoying the little things in life.


Everybody look to their left Everybody look to their right Can you feel that (yeah) We're paying with love tonight
We're all here together in this moment, and we should appreciate the bond and connection that love creates.


It's not about the money, money, money We don't need your money, money, money We just wanna make the world dance, Forget about the price tag
We don't care about the amount of money you have, we just want to spread joy and make people happy through dancing and expressing ourselves.


Ain't about the cha-ching cha-ching. Ain't about the ba-bling ba-bling Wanna make the world dance, Forget about the price tag.
This isn't about material wealth or possessions, it's about enjoying ourselves and having a good time in the moment.


We need to take it back in time, When music made us all unite! And it wasn't low blows and video hoes, Am I the only one getting tired?
Let's look back to a time when music was unifying and not divisive. We're tired of the disrespectful culture that has developed around music videos.


Why is everybody so obsessed? Money can't buy us happiness Can we all slow down and enjoy right now Guarantee we'll be feeling all right.
Why is everyone so focused on money? No amount of money can buy true happiness. Let's enjoy the present moment and we'll feel much better for it.


Lalalalalalala Lalalalalalala Lalalalalalala, price tag (Ain't about the) Lalalalalalala (Ain't about the) Lalalalalalala (World dance) Lalalalalalala Price tag
Saying that this is a chant, it's not about the money, it's about having fun and making the world dance.


Ba-bling ba-bling, wanna make the world dance, Forget about the price tag
Again, it's not about material wealth, but about having fun, enjoying, and spreading happiness by making the world dance.
