Fancy
Drake (ft. Mary J. Blige & Swizz Beatz) Lyrics

Go, go 'head (Go, go, go)
Encouraging someone to proceed or continue doing something

Oh, you fancy, huh?
Sarcastic admiration for someone who looks or dresses elegantly

Nails done, hair done, everything did
Describing someone who has put a lot of effort into their appearance

You getting ready so I know we gon' be here awhile
Acknowledging that the person is taking their time to prepare for something

In the bathroom flat irons and nail files
Mentioning the tools used to prepare for the occasion

Spending hours in salons on your hairstyles
Talking about the time and effort put into getting a good hairstyle

In the mall steady racking up the air miles
Implying that the person goes shopping frequently and buys expensive things

Hit the gym, step on the scales, stare at the number
Mentioning the person's fitness routine and concern for their weight

You say you droppin' 10 pounds preparin' for summer
Indicating that the person is trying to lose weight ahead of summer

And you don't do it for the man, men never notice
Asserting that the person is not trying to impress men but rather herself

You just do it for yourself, you the fucking coldest
Complimenting the person's confidence and individuality

Intelligent too, ooh you're my sweetheart
Appreciating the person's intelligence and personality

I've always liked my women book and street smart
Describing the singer's preference for women who are educated and experienced in life

Long as they got a little class like half days
Expecting a certain level of class and manners from the person

And the confidence to overlook my past ways
Asking the person to accept the singer's previous mistakes and flaws

Time heals all and heels hurt to walk in
Pointing out the pain of wearing high heels and the passage of time to heal past wounds

But they go with the clutch that you carry your lip gloss in
Commenting on the matching accessories worn by the person

And look, I really think that nobody does it better
Expressing admiration for the person's style and appearance

Well, aren't you a breath of fresh air?
Complimenting the person's uniqueness in contrast to other women

From all these superficial gold digging bitches in here
Negative remark about women who are only interested in money and wealth

Guess they plan on sucking dicks until some millions appear
Implies that such women will do anything to get rich

Now here you are with your girls having drinks at the bar
Describing the person's social life and company

Independent with the demeanor of an R&B singer (check)
Noting the person's independent and strong-willed nature, comparing it to the confidence of an R&B singer

Champagne Range, triple-white Jag
Listing the expensive cars owned by the person

Closet full of brand new clothes and handbags
Noting the abundance of high-end clothing and accessories owned by the person

You ain't needy, greedy or easy as these other breezy's
Distinguishing the person from other women who are demanding, selfish, or easy to flatter

Who fuck for bottles of Riesling and bowls of baked ziti
Suggesting that some women sell themselves short for small favors or gifts

Atlanta girls, let me see your hands (yeah)
Making a request for women from Atlanta to show their agreement or support

Wave 'em at them bitches hating on you with their friends
Encouraging the person to ignore negative comments from envious or jealous peers

And my NY girls, let me see your hands
Making a request for women from New York to show support

And my LA girls, let me see your hands
Making a request for women from Los Angeles to show support

And my TO girls, let me see your hands
Making a request for women from Toronto to show support

Say go Cinderella, go Cinderella
Encouraging the person to enjoy herself and feel like a princess

Devil in a tight dress, girl you a killer
Praising the person's sensual and alluring appearance

And ain't nobody realer, and ain't nobody realer, go
Reinforcing the person's individuality and authenticity

5 and a half in boys, ass is off the hook
Complimenting the person's physique and figure

Cinderella 'bout to lose the glass off her foot
Reference to the fairy tale story, indicating that the person is about to have fun and enjoy herself

And when I find it is when I find you
Expressing a desire to find the person and be together

And we can do the things we never got the time to
Imagining a future where the singer and the person can explore new experiences together

Better late than never but never late is better
Suggesting that it's better to start something late than never, but it's best to be on time or early

They tell me time is money, well we'll spend it together
Acknowledging the value of time and suggesting that spending time with the person is worth it

I'm down for whatever, you just lead the way
Being open to anything and following the person's lead

We go to dinner you don't even look at me to pay
Showing respect for the person's independence and ability to pay for herself

Mature women with more than me were the first to tempt me
Mentioning the attraction to older women who are more experienced and wealthy

And Jason had this girl Tammy with a purple Bentley
Giving a specific example of a woman with an expensive car

How she got it I ain't never get to ask
Admitting ignorance or indifference to how the person got their wealth

I just knew that she was fine like a ticket on the dash
Emphasizing the person's beauty and attractiveness

Shout out to the homeowners
Acknowledging the hard work and success of people who own their homes

The girls that got diplomas and enough money to loan us
Mentioning the achievement and generosity of educated and successful women

A little something extra, should we ever need it
Implying that the person is willing to help the singer if needed

If it sounds like you, then let me hear you repeat it
Asking for confirmation or agreement from the person

Oh, you fancy, huh? (fancy)
Recapitulating the sarcastic admiration for the person's elegance and style
