“Cheap Queen” was the first official look into King Princess’s debut album of the same name. Originally performed on the Pussy is God Tour,
Mikaela first teased the studio version in a tweet and announced the following day on Instagram and Twitter the release of the song.
[Verse 1]
(Cheap queen)
I've been alright
I've just been doing the same shit I've always liked (Smiling for the audience)
Like smoking and movies and homies who bring me wine
I've been going out too much (Queen)
And talking 'bout myself too much (Oh, smiling for the audience)
[Chorus]
I can be good sometimes
I'm a cheap queen
I can be what you like
And I can be bad sometimes
I'm a real queen
I can make grown men cry
I can be good sometimes
I'm a cheap queen
I can be what you like
And I can be bad sometimes
I'm a real queen
I can make grown men cry
[Verse 2]
Makin' my name (Queen)
All of my girls get up early and stay out late (Queen)
They drive all the way to the west side to see my face (How do they do it?)
That's good love (Good love, good love)
And I ain't no big baller when it's fake friends you're callin'
[Chorus]
I can be good sometimes
I'm a cheap queen
I can be what you like
And I can be bad sometimes
I'm a real queen
I can make grown men cry
I can be good sometimes
I'm a cheap queen
I can be what you like
And I can be bad sometimes
I'm a real queen
I can make grown men cry
[Bridge]
I'm gettin' too cocky since everyone wants me (Queen)
It's harder to be myself (Queen, queen)
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do (Smiling)
But I see you love me (Queen)
It's better than money to know that you call me out (Cheap queen)
But when the money's out
I can make grown men cry
[Chorus]
I can be good sometimes
I'm a cheap queen
I can be what you like
And I can be bad sometimes
I'm a real queen
I can make grown men cry
I can be good sometimes
I'm a cheap queen
I can be what you like
And I can be bad sometimes
I'm a real queen
I can make grown men cry
[Outro]
Queen
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do (Smiling for the audience)
Queen
Cheap queen, queen
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do (Smiling for the audience)
How did I do it?
Queen

It’s very much an ode to my friends. “Cheap Queen” was an interlude. I was going to name the album after the interlude because it was so cute. And [my team] was like, “No, bitch. It’s a song.” So I made it a full-length song. It’s an homage to my community. We are all cheap queens. It’s a drag term...
