Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Doctor, I need medicine
Cheerleader need her letterman
Yeah, knock knock, let me in
Give you a late show like Letterman
I'm right here boy, what you doing 'bout it?
Step up, I'll go do without it
I'll be waiting, anticipating
I gotcha' you going 90 on the highway
Rolling up to my driveway
See the look on my face
I'm not the girl next door

You should already know-know-know
You should already know-know-know
How this thing 'bout to go-go-go
You should already know
I'mma say it again
You should already know
Thought that I told you
You should already know
When you came over
How stay bout' you go
I need a soldier
You should already know
Know-know-know

Hey there, Mr. President
I could be your Marilyn
Yeah, tryna talk, I ain't hearing it
And what I got, I ain't sharing it
It's for you boy, what you doing 'bout it?
Step up, I'll go do without it
I'll be waiting, anticipating

I gotcha' you going 90 on the highway
Rolling up to my driveway
See the look on my face
I'm not the girl next door

You should already know-know-know
You should already know-know-know
How this thing 'bout to go-go-go

Overall Meaning

In Pia Mia's song Mr President, the singer uses metaphors and references to cultural icons to express her desire to be with someone who is powerful and authoritative. The first verses of the song convey the message that the singer is strong and independent, and she is not going to wait for somebody who is not willing to step up and be the man she needs. She likens herself to a cheerleader and a doctor - both professions that require strength and hard work - and then she invites the object of her desire to come in and watch her perform, much like a late-night talk show host. The chorus repeats the message that the man she wants should already know that she needs a soldier, and she could be his Marilyn Monroe - someone who will be loyal and supportive, even in the face of danger.


The lyrics of the song suggest that the singer is looking for someone who is powerful and in charge, and she is willing to be submissive to that person. She also suggests that she is not like other girls - she is not the girl next door, and she is not going to share what she has with just anyone. The references to cultural icons like Letterman, Marilyn Monroe, and the President reinforce the idea that the singer is looking for someone who is iconic and legendary.


Overall, the song suggests that the singer is confident and assertive, but also vulnerable and in need of protection. She is looking for someone who can be her rock, her protector, and her guide.
