Gatheration
Lady Sovereign Lyrics

This is the midget's mansion
She's referring to her own house.

Yo, an' if you ain't invited
If you aren't given an invitation, you aren't allowed.

You ain't comin' in
You aren't getting inside.

It's like orcas splashin', people crashin'
People are going wild like orcas, and there's chaos all around.

Unnecessary drunken feuds is fashion
Arguing over small things while being drunk is being considered as trendy behavior.

Clean up that spilt drink or you ain't crashin'
You will not be allowed to stay if you don't clean up the drink you spilled.

My bed's out of bounds, so strictly no lashin'
She won't allow anyone to have sex in her bed.

Where's my debit card? Nobody move
She's worried about her debit card and doesn't want anyone to disturb her while looking for it.

You ain't gettin' out of this room until I prove
She will not let anyone leave the room until she finds out who took her debit card.

That you didn't take it and I misplaced it
She's suggesting that she might have misplaced it herself and wants to make sure nobody stole it.

Now get out my chair, I wanna trade face, pick
She wants someone to give up their seat so she can exchange places with them.

All these facety chicks 'ave gotta face it
She's calling out the fake girls who pretend to be her friends.

Even on a Friday evening when I'm wasted
Even when she's drunk on a Friday night.

You see this life? Well, you'll never gonna taste it
She's referring to her party lifestyle, as she thinks others won't get to experience it.

I don't associate with wasters
She doesn't socialize with people who don't add value to her life.

There's a gatherin', where's it at? My yard
There's a party happening at her house.

Who's reachin'? It's gettin' messed up
She asks who's coming to the party, and how wild it's going to get.

Now who's in my yard? I've lost count
She's questioning how many people are in her house because she's lost track.

There's 10 downstairs, there's 4 on the couch
She points out the number of people located in different areas of her house.

There's 5 runnin' about, someone better bounce
She notices some people who might be getting out of control and tells them to leave her house.

Before I ding ding and your lights are out
She's threatening to get physical with someone if they don't leave her home.

Or you get left out like the ginger girls are louts
She compares the fate of the people she dislikes to those who are left out by society due to their hair color.

Someone's vomitin' and give me the sponge and towel
Someone has thrown up, and now she needs cleaning supplies to take care of the mess.

Allow it, I'll clean up the sick
She's up for the challenge and will do the cleanup herself.

Why have another sip if you can't even handle it?
She questions the drinking habits of people who can't handle their liquor.

Lightweights, I really can't stand 'em
She dislikes people who can't handle their alcohol.

Stay away 'cause I'll do somethin' random
She's warning the lightweights to stay away from her because she might do something unpredictable.

And they're monkeys, and their faces are brown
She makes an offensive remark about people of color who she compares to monkeys.

And the world comes to the midget's mansion
People from all over want to come to her house for parties.

Yeah, Gatheration Nation, Lady Sovereign
She's claiming her party scene and her house as a nation called Gatheration.

On time, yeah, make way for the S O V
She's confident and has established herself as an influential and powerful figure in her circle of friends.
