"Cuz I Can" is a song recorded by American singer Pink for her fourth studio album I'm Not Dead (2006). It was written by Pink, Max Martin and Lukasz Gottwald, and produced by Martin. One of the five tracks from I'm Not Dead to prematurely leak onto the Internet in July 2005,[1] the song was ultimately released as a promotional single in select countries on October 4, 2007, by LaFace Records.
Lyrically, the song is about Pink playing by her own rules, and boasting about her "bling", a contrast to the anti-consumerist content of "Stupid Girls", another track on the album. Referring to Cuz I Can", she called herself "a walking contradiction" and "a hypocrite sometimes."[2]
In Australia, "'Cuz I Can" debuted at number 33 on the ARIA Digital Tracks and peaked at number 14; it failed to enter the main singles chart due to its digital download-only release. In New Zealand, the song debuted at number 39, becoming the first single in the country to chart solely based on digital downloads. It peaked at number 29 in its fourth week.
The official music video for the song was first seen on Australian television on October 5, 2007, and footage of a live performance from the I'm Not Dead Tour. The performance, which was the show opener for the tour, featured dancers dressed like monks and with only underwear beneath their robes.
