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
'Cause the boy with the cold, hard cash is always Mr 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

Some boys romance, some boys slow dance, that's alright with me
If they can't raise my interests then I have to let them be
Some boys try and some boys hide, but I don't let them play
Only boys that save their pennies, make my rainy day

'Cause they 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

Boys may come, and boys may go and that's alright, you see
Experience has made me rich, and now they're after me

'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

A material

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
