"'Cuz I Can" is a song written by Pink, Max Martin and Lukasz Gottwald for Pink's fourth album, I'm Not Dead, from which it was the seventh single. In the song, Pink says she plays by her own rules and boasts 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."^[1] It was one of the five album tracks that leaked onto the internet in July 2005.^[2] The single was sent to radio stations in Australia on October 4, 2007.
