It’s okay to just admit that you’re jealous of me
Yeah, I heard you talk about me, that’s the word on the street
You’re obsessing, just confess it, put your hands up
It’s obvious, I’m your number one
It’s alright to just admit that I’m the fantasy
You’re obsessing, just confess it ’cause it’s obvious
I’m your number one
I’m your number one
I’m your number one, yeah
I’m just living that life
Von dutch, cult classic but I still pop
I get money, you get mad because the bank’s shut
Yeah, I know your little secret, put your hands up
It’s so obvious, I’m your number one
Life
Von dutch, cult classic in your eardrums
Why you lying? You won’t fuck ‘less he’s famous
Do that little dance, without it you’d be nameless
It’s so obvious, I’m your number one
I’m your number one
I’m your number one
I’m your number one
Yeah, it’s so obvious
I’m your number one
I’m your number one
I’m your number one
Yeah, it’s so obvious
It’s okay to just admit that you’re jealous of me
You’re obsessing, just confess it ’cause it’s obvious
I’m your number one
I’m your number one
I’m your number one
I’m your number one
I’m your number one
Your number one, your number one
Your number one
I’m just living that life
Von dutch, cult classic but I still pop (I’m your number one, I’m your number one)
I get money, you get mad because the bank’s shut
Yeah, I know your little secret, put your hands up
It’s so obvious, I’m your number one
Life
Von dutch, cult classic in your eardrums
Why you lying? You won’t fuck ‘less he’s famous (He’s famous)
Do that little dance, without it you’d be nameless
It’s so obvious, I’m your number one
I’m your number one
Your number one, your number one
Your number one, your number one
Your number one, your number one
Your number—, your number one, yeah
I’m just living that life
Von dutch, cult classic but I still pop (I’m your number one, I’m your number one)

Bold Confidence and Self-Awareness
“Von Dutch” by Charli XCX is a striking anthem that exudes boldness and unapologetic self-assurance.

Modern Pop and Cultural References
The title itself, “Von Dutch,” nods to iconic early-2000s fashion, underlining the song’s blend of nostalgia and modern pop. Charli XCX cleverly uses sharp, playful lyrics to call out superficiality and the desire for recognition, all while maintaining her signature edgy style. The track’s infectious hooks and assertive attitude make it both an empowerment anthem and a commentary on celebrity culture.
