Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Sex 'n' Money" by Oakenfold feat. Pharrell Williams speak to the idea that women in clubs are often seeking both sex and money. The repetition of the line "Girls in the club want sex 'n' money" drives home this idea, while the line "Cold, cold, cold but leaving me hot hot hot" seems to indicate the singer's own awareness of the transactional nature of these kinds of encounters.

The lyrics can be seen as a commentary on the objectification of women in these social situations, as they are reduced to their perceived value in terms of physical and financial gain. At the same time, they also speak to the fact that women may be using their sexuality as a means of gaining power and agency in a situation where they may not have it otherwise.

Ultimately, the lyrics of "Sex 'n' Money" suggest that there is a complex and often fraught dynamic at play when it comes to sex and money in social situations, and that people are rarely one-dimensional in their motivations and desires.
