Lyrics

Madonna X is a lover Madonna X is a mystery Madonna X is an Uber driver But, sometimes she drives for Lyft too In 1984, on American Bandstand Dick Clark asked me: "Madonna, what's next?" I wanna (rule the world) I wanna rule the world (rule the world) Crucifix, don't shave my pits (rule the world) I want to rule the world (rule the world) Gonna grab it by the balls Shared a name with my mother She died when I was five years old Turned the hurt around Knew I was destined, for something more With a name like Madonna I could be a saint or a sinner So, I started dancing Won't stop 'til I'm a winner (rule the world) I wanna rule the world (rule the world) I'm not your average girl (rule the world) I wanna rule the world (rule the world) Hello Ru, this is Madonna, call me in Miami I know exactly what I want The groove is calling out to me So, I became my own icon I own MTV Rolling around in a wedding gown A dirty blonde with a sexy mole Just like Marilyn I had material goals (ah, ah) 'Cause I'm a boy toy, baby And all the little girls dress like me 'Cause I'm a boy toy, baby And all the others are just wannabes I'm a boy toy and I ain't gonna stop I'm a boy toy, call me a boy toy Because I'm the one on top (call me a boy toy) I'm a boy toy My next album went platinum fast And so did I Critics don't know what to make of me Am I real art or publicity? My music videos stir up controversy Haters criticize my blond ambition Double standard, is it 'cause I'm a woman? I'm gonna express myself And you'll pay more than attention (I want more than attention) (Unapologetic) defying old taboos (Unapologetic) 'cause sex is power too Making art isn't easy But that's why I do it (so you can get into it) (Unapologetic) did I make you stare? (Unapologetic) now kiss my derriere Making art isn't easy And I've got the scars to prove it So you can get into it Hello, fellas! Love who you love You know there's more than one way to play Bullet bras are the way to go far Thank you, Jean Paul Gaultier Pinstripe suits can be subversive But listen to what I say Leading men and Latin studs I love them like nobody else But gay men are the ones who intrigue me I should have been born one myself God bless the gays (God bless the gays) LGBT God bless the gays (God bless the gays) GMHC More than an advocate, we went through serious shit Our bond got stronger and stronger Like a prayer does a mourner (like a prayer) God bless the gays (God bless the gays) God bless the children God bless the gays God bless the gays So, after dressing you up in my love There was only one thing left to do Take it all off I made a video in Paris (ooh la la) It was too hot for MTV (ouch) So it became the first VHS single (kerching) Now, when pop stars shake their cakes on Instagram I say: "You're welcome" Posing, disrobing, opposing, for you As I (must define my brand) Girls and boys kissing, censors hissing As I (must define my brand) Whips, bare nips, not just the tips As I (must define my brand) I'm seductive, not reductive I'm erotic, you're neurotic 'Cause I (must defide my brand) Because I'm what? Whipsmart I never wanted to be an actress I thought I'd stick to music But I was desperate-ly seeking something And then Sean gave me Shanghai Surprise, and a ring Some people wondered, "Who's that girl?" I was just breathless over Dick (Tracy) Though I knew that I was in a league of my own (a league of her own) I was born to play Eva, yes voice lessons! A golden globe for all the haters And though my acting days are mostly swept away I do what I wanna, 'cause bitch, I'm Madonna But what I really want to do is direct Cut, print, moving on There comes a time in an artist's career (-reer, -reer, -reer) When she decides to seek God And put it in her songs (songs, songs, songs) I took myself first-class on a journey (-ney, -ney, -ney) To find a higher power and live my life in awe I'm alive (don't care, don't care) I'm alive (don't come too near) I'm alive (don't care, don't care) I'm alive Hippy-dippy, trippy song (I'm alive) A Kabbalah sing-along (I'm alive) Won a Grammy for this song (-ong, -ong, -ong, -ong, -ong, -ong) You go girl Yas, God! Hey, lady pop stars, all hail the queen Welcome to my Fempire After two decades in the biz Now I can do whatever Dress up like a pimp Talk like a Brit Things that used to get me banned Are emulated across the land Blaze new trails for others like me You're welcome, Gwen Stefani All the girls go Gaga for my grills While I make it rain with my bills My power isn't fake And in front of Timberlake I kissed Britney and Christina And I liked it, Katy Perry Hey, lady pop stars, all hail the queen Welcome to my Fempire (I'm still in the groove, yeah) Oh, bitch, I got this (Redefining the moves, yeah) Don't be an ageist I did pilates with some hotties in the aughts Then took to the dance floor Wearing pink for my confessions Got hung up, Super Bowl, hard candy and Malawi Said bye to Guy, thank God I'm single and not sorry (My eighties ladies) have all come and gone (Whitney, George, MJ) moonwalked on (Ooh, ooh, ooh) I still grow 'cause I'm M-A-D-O-N-N-A, bitch Sixty years and I keep topping Ageist if you think I'm stopping Classic looks but kids keep mocking (I'm M-A-D-O-N-N-A, bitch) Beyoncé, Gaga, Ariana Girls, I still be here mañana Sexy, not afraid to flaunt it (I'm M-A-D-O-N-N-A, bitch) Yes, I'm still Madonna Fuck your sexist drama When you hate it's just kablama Don't preach 'cause I'm your mama I'm M-A-D-O-N-N-A, bitch (Compose, -pose, -pose) I think the most controversial thing I have ever done Is to stick around Compose (-pose, -pose) Okay, here we go All Madonnas, spit a flow Compose (-pose, -pose) Like a Virgin, Like a Prayer Cherish, True Blue, Truth or Dare Dick Tracy, Drowned World Tour Live to Tell, now Who's that Girl? Express yourself, Material Girl You got 4 Minutes to Save the World Open Your Heart, don't get Hung Up Papa, Don't Preach, I'm Burning Up Living for Love, I'm Madame X Into the Groove, a book called Sex I'll Remember, so Don't Tell Me Physical Attraction, for Dear Jessie Beautiful Stranger, Crazy for You Sorry, Hydrangea, I still loathe you Girl Gone Wild, Rebel Heart Causing a Commotion and that's just the start Compose (-pose, -pose) From Holiday to Medellin When it comes to pop, I'm still your queen I'm M-A-D-O-N-N-A, bitch!
