Give Me a Beat
Girl Talk Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh mama I'm in fear for my life
From the long arm of the law

Bitches ain't shit but hoes and tricks

Lawman has put an end to my running
And I'm so far from my home
Bitches ain't shit but hoes and tricks

Oh mama I can hear you a crying
You're so scared and all alone

Bitches ain't shit but hoes and tricks

Hangman is coming down from the gallows
And I don't have very long

Give me a beat!

Ohhhooo!

Ridin big, gettin mine
Two microwaves cook a brick at a time
Bandana on da handle ready for da whip
When I wear da whitest soft watch it disappear
I disappear in da middle of da night
When I reappear bet da boss look so bright
Fo life, dough boy, More strikes, O boy
We ridin low, Gettin high
80 round drum let ya know da time
When you see da Maybachs niggas know its mine
Ridin on da 2 4's runnin ahead of my time
Watch runnin from kind, Anotha one on my mind
Phone bill 4 grand get ya ho on da line
In da hood ho niggas act funny
Only real niggas really get to touch cash money

I will attack and you don't want that

Gimme, gimme more
Gimme, gimme more
Gimme, gimme more
Gimme, gimme more
Gimme, gimme more
Turn it up make it knock, knock
(Sexy boyy)
Gimme, gimme more
Me and yo down your block, block
Gimme, gimme more
Turn it up make it knock, knock
(Sexy boyy)
Gimme, gimme more
Me and yo down your block, block

Back it up, back it up, back it up
Turn it up make it knock, knock
Back it up, back it up, back it up
Me and yo down your block, block
Back it up, back it up, back it up
Turn it up make it knock, knock
Back it up, back it up, back it up
Me and yo down your block, block

Let it drop

If you got the fattest ass on the block now drop
Let a nigga see the coochie pop now drop
Do the snake do the freak do the pop now drop
Yo don't stop don't stop
Real eyes down south thighs now drop
Waist line five six seven now drop
One time all in together now drop
Yo don't stop don't stop

Beauty is wasted...

Uh!

Back in the day I dip my shirt in dirt
Sometimes I got away clean, sometimes people got hurt
But if you know me, you know that I'm liable
to bust a cap cos it's all about survival of the fittest
I'm a menace crook
I did so much dirt I need to be in the Guinness Book
From the shit I took from people
I reap all your fat shit, jack
Back to the criminals sect
I leave crew after crew but they can't catch me yet
Cos I'm slick as slippery
They can't get wit me, cops ain't shit to me
I can't dig a pig so I drop the dogs
and sweat em like sweathogs
and get mad, mad cos I'm the nigga that flaunt it

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Girl Talk's "Give Me a Beat" are a fusion of three different songs by three different artists - "Renegade" by rapper Jay-Z and rock band Linkin Park, "AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted" by rapper Ice Cube, and "The Trooper" by British heavy metal band Iron Maiden. The lyrics form a chaotic and often nonsensical mix of references to the long arm of the law, fear, and violence. The repeated phrase "bitches ain't sh*t but hoes and tricks" seems to reflect a degrading view of women that has been widely criticized in hip-hop culture.


The song's criss-crossing lyrics are supported by Girl Talk's signature mashup style, which blends samples from different songs to create a new musical composition. The chorus, "Give me a beat," is a sample from the beginning of "Renegade" and sets the tone for the song's rapid-fire pacing. This mashup is emblematic of Girl Talk's famously frenetic music style which draws on the sounds of artists from a multitude of genres and eras, creating an entirely new sound that evokes nostalgia and excitement for listeners.
