What's My Name
Beautiful Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Look what I found in my beer
A couple of dancing ladies and a ticket out of here
Look what I found in my beer
A start to being lonely and an end to my career

Look what he found in his gin
Lights' looking lively when love's looking dim
Look what he found in his gin
Souls look heavy when personality's thin

Look what I found in the drum
A lifelong beat and a replacement to the rum
Look what I found in the guitar
Another fellow thinker and a chauffeur to my heart

Look what I found in the mic
An end to screwed-up drinking and a Paul I actually like
Look what I found in my beer
A free test drive for a heart I cannot steer
Look what I found in my beer

Look what I found in my drink
A brain without a plughole and a sink without a think
Look what I found in my drink
A "love you" to the barmaid and a too-familiar wink

Look what we found in his booze
The reflection of him and his children without shoes
Look what we found in his booze
This mornings jigsaw in a hill of last nights clues

Look what I found in the drum
A lifelong beat and a replacement to the rum
Look what I found in the guitar
Another fellow thinker and a chauffeur to my heart

Look what I found in the mic
An end to screwed-up drinking and a Paul I actually like
Look what I found in my beer
A free test drive for a heart I cannot steer
Look what I found in my beer

Look what we found in the dance
Look what I've found in the song
Low expectations in a large pile of cans




It makes the drink seem weak,
The friendship strong

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Beautiful's song "What's My Name" describe different experiences with alcohol and how it affects people's emotions and actions. The first verse talks about finding dancing ladies and a ticket out of here in a beer, which represents the idea of trying to escape loneliness and a dissatisfying career. Similarly, the second verse mentions lights looking lively in gin despite love looking dim, meaning that people tend to turn to alcohol when they feel down or when their relationships are struggling.


The following verses highlight how music and instruments can replace alcohol as a source of comfort and pleasure. The drum and guitar are presented as fellow thinkers and chauffeurs to the heart, providing a lifelong beat and replacing the need for rum. The mic also allows for a change in behavior, leading the singer to an end to screwed-up drinking and discovering a Paul they actually like. However, the song acknowledges that finding a replacement for alcohol is not always easy, as in the case of the line "a free test drive for a heart I cannot steer."

Lyrics:
This is all hands on deck
Calling out to lost boys and girls
I'm gettin' tired of the disrespect
We won't stop 'til we rule the world
It's our time, we up next (next, next)
Our sail's about to be set (set, set)
They ain't seen nothing yet
Tell 'em who's in charge so they don't forget
What's my name? What's my name? (Uma)
Say it louder
What's my name? What's my name? (Uma)
Feel the power
No one's gonna stop us soon the world will be ours
What's my name? What's my name?
What's it? What's it? Say it loud!
(Uma, Uma)
All eyes on me, let me see 'em (Uma, Uma)
What's it? What's it? Say it, say it
(Uma, ah-ah) (uma, uma, la la um)
Uma
I'm the queen of this town
I call the shots, you know who I am
I don't need to wear no fake crown
Stand up to me, you don't stand a chance
It's our time, we up next (next, next)
My crew's as real as it gets (gets, gets)
The worst are now the best
And leaving us here will be their last regret
What's my name? What's my name? (Uma)
Say it louder
What's my name? What's my name? (Uma)
Feel the power
No one's gonna stop us, soon the world will be ours
What's my name? What's my name?
What's it? What's it? Say it, say it


You know what they say, bad girls have all the fun
Never learned how to count 'cause I'm number one
Ready here, we come, we always get our way (uma)
It's a pirate's life, every single day (hey)
She's the captain, I'm the first mate
Enemies seasick, can't see straight
Call 'em fish bait, throw 'em on a hook
Uma's so hot they get burned if they look (ah) (hock me) (Ha-ha) (whoa)

Come on!
What's my name? What's my name? (Uma)
Say it louder (hey)
What's my name? What's my name? (Uma)
Feel the power (ooh whoa-ooh)
No one's gonna stop us, soon the world will be ours (no one's gonna stop us, no, no-no)
What's my name? What's my name?
What's it? What's it? Say it, say it
(Uma, Uma)
All eyes on me, let me see 'em (Uma)
What's it? What's it? Say it, say it (Uma)
Ooh, say it louder (Uma, Uma)
Ooh, say it louder (Uma, Uma)
What's it? What's it? Say it, say it
