Some boys kiss me, some boys hug me
I think they're okay
If they don't give me proper credit, I just walk away
They can beg and they can plead
But they can't see the light (That's right)
'Cause the boy with the cold hard cash is always Mister Right

'Cause we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl
You know that we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl

(But what about romance? Oh please, listen up)

Some boys romance, some boys slow dance
That's all right with me
If they can't raise my interеst, then I have to let thеm be
Some boys try, and some boys lie
But I don't let them play (No way)
Only boys who save their penny make my rainy day

'Cause they are living in a material world
And I am a material girl (Get it?)
You know that we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl
Living in a material world
And I am a material girl
You know that we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl

'Cause everybody's living in a material world
And I am a material girl
You know that we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl
Living in a material world
And I am a material girl
You know that we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl
