Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Baby girl, you know what I want.
Let me do it to ya, do it to ya
Let me do ya like uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh

Childish Gambino got that swagger
All these pussy niggas 'round here don't matter
All that I know is that I wanna dance with ya
Move in closer before I'm gonna kiss ya

Know that you know me
Don't act stupid
You seem different
Tired of these groupies
I'm on fire, won't find figga
Got big shots sayin, "That's that nigga"

HOV-y with glasses. Weezy but geeky
Girls in the lobby tryin' to meet me
I ain't afraid to say it. Yeah, I love these hoes
With their glasses, and their jacket, and their hipster clothes
Yes, I'm always on tour. Whatcha mad at that fo'?
Slammin' that thing like a Cadillac do'
I love fast women, Jackie Joyner-Kersee
Have your cake and eat it. Baby, it's your birthday

Baby girl, you know what I want.
Let me do it to ya, do it to ya
Let me do ya like uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh

It ain't trickin' if 'you know'
Baby, I 'you know'
Mama, you are with the right man; Juno
Tell me what you wanna do, I will make it happen
I just wanna get you home and uh, uh, uh, uh, oh

Yes, I'm drinking whiskey
Baby, I am gone tonight
NBC is not the only thing I'm comin' on tonight
Gross! Why the fuck I say these things?
It isn't over, haven't heard the chubby lady sing
Everybody love me. Call a nigga Raymond
These weak niggas always in your face like Raybans

Yes, I bring the heat, girl. Fire, f-fireman
Baby, I'm your hero. Donald for Spiderman
I'm in love with you, but this is not Tennis
And baby stay stacked like she bad at Tetris
Rude boy, I Rihanna that vagina
Tell your boy, good luck tryin' to find ya

Baby girl, you know what I want.
Let me do it to ya, do it to ya
Let me do ya like uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh

HOV-y with glasses. Weezy but geeky Girls in the lobby tryin' to meet me
I am stylish like Jay-Z, but also have a nerdy side like Lil Wayne. Women are always trying to meet me, even in the lobby.

I am not ashamed to admit that I enjoy promiscuous women. I also have an attraction to women who wear trendy clothing and glasses.

I am often on tour, but see no reason why anybody should be upset about that. I am sexually active with women who are athletic and fast like Jackie Joyner-Kersee. It is your birthday, so you should indulge in whatever pleasures you desire.


It ain't trickin' if 'you know' Baby, I 'you know' Mama, you are with the right man; Juno Tell me what you wanna do, I will make it happen I just wanna get you home and uh, uh, uh, uh, oh
I do not believe it is misleading or unethical to spend money on a woman in exchange for sexual activity, as long as she is aware of the arrangement. I am confident that I am the right man for you. I want to fulfill your desires and take you home for sexual activity.


Yes, I'm drinking whiskey Baby, I am gone tonight NBC is not the only thing I'm comin' on tonight Gross! Why the fuck I say these things? It isn't over, haven't heard the chubby lady sing Everybody love me. Call a nigga Raymond These weak niggas always in your face like Raybans
I am drinking alcohol and may be under its influence. I am planning to engage in sexual activity tonight outside of a network news station. I am confused as to why I say such vulgar things. The performance is not yet over, and we have not heard the final song. I am well-liked and should be referred to by my given name. Weak men are always trying to get close to me, like sunglasses.


Yes, I bring the heat, girl. Fire, f-fireman Baby, I'm your hero. Donald for Spiderman I'm in love with you, but this is not Tennis And baby stay stacked like she bad at Tetris Rude boy, I Rihanna that vagina Tell your boy, good luck tryin' to find ya
I am sexually gifted and able to excite you. I am a heroic figure in your eyes, like Donald Glover playing Spiderman. I have feelings of love towards you, but do not intend to have a serious relationship. You have an attractive body like the blocks in the game Tetris. I am sexually aggressive towards women, and it will be difficult for any other man to compete with me for your attention.


Baby girl, you know what I want. Let me do it to ya, do it to ya Let me do ya like uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh
Again, I am expressing my desire to engage in sexual activity with you, in a manner that will be enjoyable for both of us.
