Today,Cheap Thrills by Sia Interpretation Articles I would like to interpret the song "Cheap Thrills" by Sia.

 

[Verse 1]

Come on, come on, turn the radio onIt's Friday night and I won't be longGotta do my hair, I put my make up onIt's Friday night and I won't be long

 

Sia talks about the benefit of turning the radio on. It simply entertains her. She also discusses about doing her hair and putting her make up on.

 

[Pre-Chorus]

Til I hit the dance floorHit the dance floorI got all I needNo I ain't got cashNo I ain't got cashBut I got you baby

Sia says that dancing is all she needs. Also, even though she doesn't have any money, she got his guy.

 

[Chorus]

Baby I don't need dollar bills to have fun tonight

(I love cheap thrills)

Baby I don't need dollar bills to have fun tonight

(I love cheap thrills)

But I don't need no moneyAs long as I can feel the beat

I don't need no moneyAs long as I keep dancing

 

Sia reiterates that dancing is all that she needs, which is in a sense, very practical (According to genius.com, which I trust very much, "cheap thrill" means temporary fun. So, although dancing

is all she needs; probably, the benefit she gets from it is temporary).

 

[Verse 2]

Come on, come on, turn the radio onIt's Saturday and I won't be longGotta paint my nails, put my high heels onIt's Saturday and I won't be long

 

This verse is very much similar to the first verse. So, just refer to that again, please.

 

Thank you for reading!
