Ariana Grande released a new song called "Monopoly" this afternoon with close friend, collaborator, and fellow artist Victoria Monét. After the song dropped, the Thank U, Next singer explained on Twitter that the surprise track is dedicated "to friendship, freedom, protecting your energy and staying right in your bag."
to friendship, freedom, protecting your energyand staying right in your bag
we love you #MONOPOLY arianagrande.lnk.to/monopoly @VictoriaMonet
Monét gave a similar note, calling the track "a thank you to them fans" and described it as "good vibes and celebrations of life and friendship."
Fans also wondered if Grande came out as bisexual on the song, since she and Monét both sing "I like women and men" in the chorus. The singer hasn't publicly commented on the lyric, but Monét has previously discussed her sexuality on social media by saying she also likes girls. It's unclear whether the line only applies to her or both her and Grande.
Regardless, the track is another bop from the pop powerhouse and one of her right-hand writers. Read all of the lyrics to "Monopoly" below:
Yeah
I've been on the road, where you been?
Real protective with my soul, where you been?
Is your GPS even on, where you been?
Matter of fact, I don't even care where you been
Bad vibes, get off of me
Outta here with that fuckery
Treat my goals like property
Collect them like Monopoly
I probably won't come if there's not a fee
And if they try come stoppin' me
I swerve both ways, dichotomy
I like women and men (Yeah)
Work so fuckin' much, need a twinny, twin, twin
How you hit the club and you barely got in?
Then we hit the bank, making them investments for the win, oh
Said, I been on the road, where you been? (Where you been?)
Real protective with my soul, where you been? (Where you been?)
Is your GPS even on, where you been? (Where you been?)
Matter of fact, I don't even care where you been
Bad vibes, get off of me
Outta here with that fuckery
Treat my goals like property
Collect them like Monopoly
I probably won't come if there's not a fee
And if they try come stoppin' me
I show them my discography (Yeah, yeah)
I like women and men (Yeah)
Work so fuckin' much, need a twinny, twin, twin (Hey)
You'd be straight for life if I gave you my PIN (Yeah)
Even though we gave up that 90% for the win, go
I've been on the road, where you been? (Where you been?)
Real protective with my soul, where you been? (Where you been?)
Is your GPS even on, where you been? (Where you been?)
Matter of fact, I don't even care where you been
Yeah, hell no
I don't even care where you been (Oh, yeah)
Hell no (Oh, yeah)
Said I don't even care
Remember when we made a fuckin' album off that Clicquot? (Ooh)
I never track my vocals, so shout out to Eric Vetro (I love Eric Vetro, man)
This been buildin' up, I guess this friendship like Home Depot (Ooh)
I'm so thankful working with my best friend, she the chico
She the chico (Yeah)
Where you at? Where you been? (Oh yeah)
Where you been? Where you at, ho? Hey (Where you been?)
Where you at? Where you been, ho? Hey (Mmm, yeah)
I don't care where you been, ho (Been)
Where you been, Cletus?
Yeah, who? (What?) Clevis?
Who the fuck is Cletus?
It's from, um
Cletus? Girl
Nutty Fropessor
We have to wrap, 5, 6, 7, 8
Yeah
