Music video
editThe music video was released on 21 May 2011, and features Katy and two friends in a pool club. Katy does various activities including hustling at pool, then she and her friends are chased out by a bailiff at the end and escape with money as they drive off.
Composition
editThe song is written in pure harmonic minor, which is a rare instance in popular music. Its key signature is B♭ minor and it follows the harmonic chord progression of F—B♭m—G♭—E♭m—F (the E♭m is a passing chord). The song has an electronica influence. It provides a subtle vocal harmony, extensive vamping and emphasis on instrumental arranging.[1]
