Lirik Lagu Housewife - Tate McRae, Dibawakan di Victoria's Secret 2026

Okay, okay

Think my paradise is tabloids and flashing lights
Truth is it's more like loads of cash, and a nice guy and a life lived right (I know that)

There's just some things that they don't tell you, tell you
And all the dreams they try to sell you, sell you
The price of fame can take you to your knees
And when it does, wanna run away with me?

I just wanna make a lot of money, be my own housewife
You, you, you, you could be the one I'm calling honey, be my sex on the side (You, you, you)
Acres of open stars, headlights of precious cars, life imitating art
I, I, I, I just wanna make a lot of money, be my own housewife
Be my, be my

Drive fast, take me out of here
Louis out the window and the 310 in the mirror
Life's great when you disappear
Rockies took the girl, but the city took the golden years

This industry will try to kill you, kill you
But not before they try to bill you, bill you
They try to take away your wild and free
And when they do, wanna run away with me?

I just wanna make a lot of money, be my own housewife
You, you, you, you could be the one I'm calling honey, be my sex on the side (You, you, you)
Acres of open stars, headlights of precious cars, life imitating art
I, I, I, I just wanna make a lot of money, be my own housewife
Be my, be my

Go into my garden, pick the money off the tree
I don't pay for nothing, baby, people pay me
And you right beside me's just the icing on the dream
I don't need you, I want you, and that's my favorite thing
Go into my garden, pick the money off the tree
I don't date nobody, baby, people date me
And you right beside me's just the icing on the dream
I don't need you, I want you, and that's my favorite thing

I just wanna make a lot of money, be my own housewife
You, you, you, you could be the one I'm calling honey, be my sex on the side (You, you, you)
Acres of open stars, headlights of precious cars, life imitating art
I, I, I, I just wanna make a lot of money, be my own housewife
Be my, be my

Makna lagu "Housewife" milik Tate McRae ini adalah tentang perempuan yang ingin memiliki kebebasan, kemandirian finansial, dan kendali penuh atas hidupnya tanpa harus bergantung pada laki-laki. Dalam lagu ini, Tate membalik stereotip tentang ibu rumah tangga dengan cara yang jenaka dan percaya diri.

Dalam lagu ini, Tate menggambarkan sosok perempuan yang ingin memiliki kehidupan yang nyaman, kekayaan, dan hubungan romantis. Namun, ia tetap tidak ingin kehilangan kebebasannya demi mendapatkan itu semua.

Nah, alih-alih mengandalkan pasangan untuk memenuhi kebutuhan finansialnya, ia ingin menghasilkan uang sendiri dan menikmati hasil kerja kerasnya. Namun, ada sisi lain yang menarik dari lagu ini. Sang lakon ingin mengejar ambisi pribadi sekaligus menginginkan hubungan romantis yang emosional.

"Housewife" menandai era musik baru Tate McRae setelah album ketiganya, So Close to What, yang dirilis pada Februari 2025. Album tersebut bahkan debut di posisi No. 1 Billboard 200, lho.
