I Bought That
Nicki Minaj Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When you see me switchin lanes
In the bubble gum range
On them all set wheels man guess what i did
I bought that bitch i just bought that bitch
I just went ahead and about
The pink range sport
Come and get me boy I'll be in the clear port
Cuz boy I know you bought them bricks
I spent all ya money and I bought that bitch
Cuz if I had a dollar, for ever fuckin hollar
Get wetter than umbrellas bitch
I'm groovier than stellar
Cuz everytime I come through they
Do what the bums do
Lookin all stink luh luh lookin all stink
I bought a couple of guccis, emilio pucci's
Always wear kimonos when I buy my sushi
Mami you a clown turn your smile to a frown
Cuz it is goin down like town, Julie Brown
(CHYEA) when you see me switchin lanes
In the bubble gume range




On them all set wheels man guess what I did
I bought that bitch i just bought that bitch
