Waking Up In Vegas

Katy Perry explained this song to The Sun newspaper: "Vegas gives me that 'what the f--- feeling.' It's really close to LA so one night you could be having a beer with your friends and, when you wake up, you're in Vegas." (Source Waking Up In Vegas Songfacts). The song peaked at #9 on the Billboard Hot 100, and went to #1 on the Mainstream Top 40 chart, and the Hot Dance Club Play chart in the Summer of 2009.

[Verse 1] You gotta help me out It's all a blur last night We need a taxi 'Cause you're hungover and I'm broke I lost my fake ID But you lost the motel key Spare me your freaking dirty looks now Don't blame me [Pre-Chorus 1] You wanna cash out And get the hell outta town Don’t be a baby Remember what you told me [Chorus] Shut up, and put your money where your mouth is That's what you get for waking up in Vegas Get up, and shake the glitter off your clothes now That's what you get for waking up in Vegas [Verse 2] Why are those lights so bright? Oh, did we get hitched last night? Dressed up like Elvis Why am I wearing your class ring? [Pre-Chorus 2] Don’t call your mother 'Cause now we’re partners in crime Don’t be a baby Remember what you told me [Chorus] Shut up, and put your money where your mouth is That's what you get for waking up in Vegas Get up, and shake the glitter off your clothes now That's what you get for waking up in Vegas [Bridge] You got me into this Information overload, situation lost control Send out an S.O.S Ha, and get some cash out We’re gonna tear up the town No, don’t be a baby Remember what you told me Remember what you told me Remember what you told me, told me, told me [Chorus] Shut up, and put your money where your mouth is That's what you get for waking up in Vegas Get up, and shake the glitter off your clothes now That's what you get for waking up in Vegas [Outro] That’s what you get, baby Shake the glitter Shake, shake, shake the glitter Gimme some cash out, baby Gimme some cash out, baby
