Bang Bang Bang
Mindless Behavior Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Told her when I met her, you the type I like to take out
Tell me what we doin' 'for I hit you with the fake yawn,

Now she know I'm getting money, 16, my own banker,
Paint the whole city purple like I'm playing for the Lakers

I pull up on the spot,
I see your beauty, cutie
And she swinging like she got a job at Hooters,
Hold up, look out
I see what that about, your jingling,
Got me faded, kinda like the way you toot out

I know she wanna ball, she see this fully kid in the back,
Haters whispering, how the heck is he pushing that?
Homies cursing her, asking her what she lookin' at
When I race up out the traffic when it's moved

I see she's playing her part,
But I can tell she ain't have love,
So what you putting on for?
You know he ain't that one

You got hotness baby,
I know what you thinking, this ain't enough
Can I tell you what I'm here thinking bout from day one

Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang,
That's what I be thinking every time I see ya
Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang,
She got my heart beating like the tunes that's on my speakers

Bang bang bang b-bang b-bang bang bang,
She with him, but Ima take her
She don't even need to be there
Bang bang bang b-bang b-bang bang bang,
I'll be lying if I say my intentions ain't for freaka

White 2 seater, pulled up on my bumper
And she introduced herself said her first name Rita,
You know my first thoughts skeeter
Then she leaned over in the car, hit a smile and then my thoughts got deeper

She done forgot about her people,
Homie over there in the cut on the seat actin' like he ain't never leave her
I'm like y'all gon' leave though,
Can't resist the feeling that she give me when I look into those eyes;
They be killing me

I see she's playing her part,
But I can tell she ain't have love,
So what you putting on for?
You know he ain't that one

You got hotness baby,
I know what you thinking, this ain't enough
Can I tell you what I'm here thinking bout from day one

Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang,
That's what I be thinking every time I see ya
Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang,
She got my heart beating like the tunes that's on my speakers

Bang bang bang b-bang b-bang bang bang,
She with him, but Ima take her
She don't even need to be there
Bang bang bang b-bang b-bang bang bang,
I'll be lying if I say my intentions ain't for freaka

Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang,
That's what I be thinking every time I see ya
Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang,
She got my heart beating like the tunes that's on my speakers

Bang bang bang b-bang b-bang bang bang,
She with him, but Ima take her
She don't even need to be there




Bang bang bang b-bang b-bang bang bang,
I'll be lying if I say my intentions ain't for freaka

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Mindless Behavior's song Bang Bang Bang depict a teenage boy's infatuation with a girl who is currently in a relationship with someone else.
