Green Light
Beyonce (wapos.ru) Lyrics

Give it to mama
Beyonce wants her partner to stop holding back and give her all they've got.

For some strange reason (huh)
Beyonce has noticed that her partner has stopped pleasing her as they used to and doesn't understand why.

You done pleasin' me like it's okay (oh, oh, oh)
Beyonce's partner has stopped trying to make her happy and acts like it's not a big deal.

Like a perm that's been left too long, it starts to burn The result is it just won't take (oh, oh, oh)
Beyonce compares her partner's lack of effort to a perm that has been left too long, causing damage and not achieving the desired result.

(I can see) now it's all coming so clear to me now (I can see) misinterpreted all of my naiveness Was just thinking if I had no you that I can't do My stock just went up over two million
Beyonce realizes that her partner is taking advantage of her innocence and simple nature. She also acknowledges that she's better off without them.

So if you want to (uh, uh, huh, uh, uh) You got the green light (uh, uh, huh, uh, uh) So if you want to (uh, uh, huh, uh, uh) You got the green light (uh, uh, huh, uh, uh) So if you want to (want to, want to) (uh, uh, huh, uh, uh) You got the green light (uh, uh, huh, uh, uh) So if you want to (uh, uh, huh, uh, uh) You got the green light (uh, uh, huh, uh, uh) Give it to mama
Beyonce gives her partner permission to leave and do whatever they want. She repeats that they have the green light to emphasize that they have nothing holding them back.

Some sillies say I should be trophied 'Cause it gets no stronger (oh, oh, oh)
Beyonce's partner might think that she's the best they can get, but she knows that she deserves someone who loves her more.

Ladies, y'all know (yeah, girl, y'all know) This pimp-ish mitt's no older
Beyonce tells the ladies listening that she won't settle for someone who treats her like a trophy or a pimp would treat their workers.

Is that a threat? (what's another threat?) Yep (that's another threat) Immune, you can get no colder
Beyonce is threatening to leave her partner if they don't stop taking her for granted. She promises not to back down.

You got the green light (whoa) You the king, right? (whoa) You holdin' up traffic Green means go
Beyonce calls out her partner for thinking they're in charge and holding her back. She reminds them that green means go, so they should leave her life.

Ain't no problem, you can go I'm gon' find somebody else So why not move along? You got the green light, so you can go (Go, go, go)
Beyonce doesn't mind if her partner leaves because she knows she can find someone better. She encourages them to move on and emphasizes that the green light means they have her blessing to do so.

I gave all I could give My love, my heart (my heart) Now we're facing the end (the end) of what you did from the start My love
Beyonce acknowledges that she did everything she could to make the relationship work, but her partner's lack of effort and consideration from the beginning have brought them to the end.
