B-U-T-T Out
Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You want to come too. We know you do.
And maybe someday you will.
She wants to come now, No way, no how!
Sorry, negativesville
Why not? Why not? Let's see, why not.

Lizzie baby, we'd rather you weren't along today
But shouldn't we tell her why?
We'd just rather you weren't okay?
Now back off and say goodbye.
We'd rather be picked up by a twister,
Than tagged along after by a sister.
We'd rather eat french fried garden snails.
We'd rather lose all out finger nails.
Or bathe in a pool of slime!
Hasta la vista, baby sista!
Maybe some other time.

Chorus:
B-U-T-T Out! B-U-T-T Out!
Turn your tiny frame about and B-U-T-T Out!
You better, you better, you better, you better,
B-U-T-T Out!

It's not that it makes us gag to drag a tagalong tot and tow
It's not that you embarrass us in front of everyone we know.
It's not that you are such a snot nosed brat.
It's not that you're nosy, it's not that you're a rat.
Although that may be true.
It just that this mission is dangerous,
And we care so much for you.

Chorus

Beat it!
Amscray!
Hit the highway!
See you!
Ciao!
Vamoose!
Ta-ta!
Buzz off!
Later!
Get lost!
Get banished!
Be off!
Reduce!
You're gonna, you're gonna, she's ain't gonna wanna, B-U-T-T Out!

Lizzie, you just can't come today.
Maybe next time we'll see.
Maybe a year from this coming May,
Or maybe next century!
It's not that you might be out of place.
It's not that we can't stand your face,
or that you're not of the human race.
It's just that you're too young!

Be a sweetie, B-U-T-T, B-U-T-T Out!
Eat your Zitti, B-U-T-T, B-U-T-T Out!
Phone home E.T., go home, E.T., B-U-T-T Out!




Take a hint, take a hike, B-U-T-T Out!
You better, you better, you better, you better, B-U-T-T Out!

Overall Meaning

The song "B-U-T-T Out" by Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen is a playful rebuke to a younger sister who wants to come along on an adventure. The sisters make it clear that they'd rather she stay behind, delivering a litany of reasons why they don't want her to come, ranging from preferring to be picked up by a twister, to losing all their fingernails, to bathing in a pool of slime. They argue that the mission is dangerous and that they care too much for her to let her come along. The song ends with a series of suggestions for the little sister to leave, including telling her to eat her ziti, phone home like E.T., and take a hike.


The song is a fun and energetic tune that captures the spirit of rebellious youth. The lyrics are full of clever wordplay and catchy rhymes, making it an enjoyable and memorable song for all ages. The Olsen Twins were well-known for their wholesome image, and this song was a departure from that persona, showing a more edgy and mischievous side to their personalities.

Can't believe they deleted this flashback from WandaVision episode 8. Really gives you an insight into Wanda's trauma.

@Sam Trotter I mean, I didn't realize Sokovia was next to Sherman Oaks.

Sokovia looks a bit different to how I was imagining it
