Some boys kiss me, some boys hug me 
I think theyre o.k. 
If they dont give me proper credit 
I just walk away 

They can beg and they can plead 
But they cant see the light, thats right 
cause the boy with the cold hard cash 
Is always mister right, cause we are 

Chorus: 

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 
Thats all right with me 
If they cant raise my interest then i 
Have to let them be 

Some boys try and some boys lie but 
I dont let them play 
Only boys who save their pennies 
Make my rainy day, cause they are 

(chorus) 

Living in a material world [material] 
Living in a material world 
(repeat) 

Boys may come and boys may go 
And thats all right you see 
Experience has made me rich 
And now theyre after me, cause everybodys 

(chorus) 

A material, a material, a material, a material world 

Living in a material world [material] 
Living in a material world 
(repeat and fade)
