I Love Myself
Playboy Manbaby Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I'm being honest I don't care about anybody but myself.
And I don't want talk about anything or other person but myself.
Yeah I'll try and fake some interest, act like I give a damn,
But the list of folks I care about is me and that's the end.
Cause I love myself. (myself)
And no one else, I love myself.
Woke up in the morning and was happiest to see
The person in the mirror is my favorite person, me.
I live a life with interests that never waver once
And It doesn't make a difference if I violate your trust
You might think that I'm selfish and I might agree with you.
But I never waste my time on things that help out other people too.
Na na na narcissist
Well they can say what they want.
They can say what they please.




I don't care bout what they talkin bout
If what they're talking about is me.

Overall Meaning

The song "I Love Myself" by Playboy Manbaby is a sarcastic anthem of self-absorption and narcissism. The lyrics paint the picture of a person who is solely concerned with themselves and their own needs, lacking in any real empathy or interest in others. The first verse sets the tone, with the singer admitting that they don't care about anyone else and don't want to talk about anything but themselves. They are willing to fake interest in others but only to the extent that it benefits them. The chorus reinforces this attitude, stating that the singer loves themselves and nobody else.


The second verse reveals the extent of the singer's self-love, as they wake up in the morning happiest to see themselves in the mirror. They describe living a life with steadfast interests that never waver, even if it means violating others' trust. The singer acknowledges that others might see them as selfish, but they simply don't have time for anything that doesn't directly benefit them. The song ends with a repetition of the chorus, emphasizing once again that the singer's self-love is paramount.


While the lyrics of the song might be off-putting to some, they do touch on a prevalent cultural theme of self-promotion and self-obsession in the age of social media. The song's sarcastic tone invites the listener to question their own priorities and societal norms.
