Lyrics
[Intro: Thundercat]
Hey, what you doing later tonight after you’re done with work?
I know you might be tired, but, uh, I’ma be awake
Yeah, haha
[Verse 1: Thundercat]
Got me looking like a fool
Just to get some of your attention
Girl, what I gotta do?
(Oh, you a weird chick, you like crystals and shit)
Girl, you look annoyed
Like you’ve already had enough
Do I remind you of your ex?
(That don’t seem too fair ’cause I just got here)
She gets everything she wants
It wouldn’t matter if it came from me
Why am I paying so much?
I swear I just got here
Give her everything she wants
‘Cause that’s just how it goes
I did this to myself
(But you gotta admit, she’s a bad bitch)
[Verse 2: Lil Yachty]
Bitch, stop actin’ like you never seen realness
Bitch, stop actin’ like you never seen—
The cars I was dealt in my life need to be reshuffled
The Lexus LS and them bubbles
I usually hang around guys who’s rebels
Who sip on codeine, not no Red Bull, damn
Cleared out my whole schedule
And you still act like you’re too busy
Bitch, stop actin’ like you got a real job
Bitch, that’s not a real job
Takin’ those pics in a bra shouldn’t jam your schedule
We made plans twice and it’s unsuccessful
I’m mad
‘Cause the more that I look in your face, you look like your dad
And it’s hard picturin’ him with a big ol’ ass
Damn, that’s crazy
[Outro: Thundercat]
Girl, why am I paying so much?
Girl, why am I paying so much?
Yeah
