Katy Perry explained this song to The Sun newspaper: "Vegas gives me that 'what the f--- feeling.' It's really close to LA so one night you could be having a beer with your friends and, when you wake up, you're in Vegas." (Source Waking Up In Vegas Songfacts). The song peaked at #9 on the Billboard Hot 100, and went to #1 on the Mainstream Top 40 chart, and the Hot Dance Club Play chart in the Summer of 2009.

Waking Up in Vegas
by Katy Perry
You gotta help me out
It's all a blur last night
We need a taxi 'cause you're hung-over and I'm broke
I lost my fake id but you lost the motel key
Spare me your freakin' dirty looks
Now don't blame me
You roll the cash out
And get the hell out of town
Don't be a baby
Remember what you told me
Shut up and put your money where your mouth is
That's what you get for waking up in Vegas
Get up and shake the glitter off your clothes, now
That's what you get for waking up in Vegas
Why are these lights so bright
Oh, did we get hitched last night, dressed up like Elvis,
Why, am I wearing your class ring?
Don't call your mother
Cause now we're partners in crime
Don't be a baby
Remember what you told me
Shut up and put your money where your mouth is
That's what you get for waking up in Vegas
Get up and shake the glitter off your clothes, now
That's what you get for waking up in Vegas
You got me into this
Information overload, situation lost control
Send out an S.O.S.
And get some cash out
We're gonna tear up the town
Don't be a baby
Remember what you told me
Remember what you told me
Remember what you told me
Told me, you told me, you told me
Shut up and put your money where your mouth is
That's what you get for waking up in Vegas
Get up and shake the glitter off your clothes, now
That's what you get for waking up in Vegas
That's what you get baby, shake the glitter, shake, shake, shake the glitter
Give me some cash out, baby
Give me some cash out, baby

Most underrated Katy Perry song.
That’s it, that’s the comment.

I think “It’s Not Like the Movies” is her most underrated! It’s beautiful. But love this one too!!

This was my anthem when I visited Las Vegas
kyra manpula
She was just starting to get famous during this time such as Taylor Swift's Teardrops on my guitar and lady gaga's poker face
Karl Madera
Period....
Ragnar
Exactly.

Remember when pop sounded fun and energetic instead of cynical, sarcastic and suicidal?

@Austin Thomas understandable. In general I meant pop music can be about any topic and still be good.
