Catcha' player by the toe
If you want to let him go
Ladies don't worry 'cause they got plenty more
Men be falling like the rain so we ain't running out
Falling like the rain so, we ain't running out
Falling like the rain so, we ain't running out
Who you think you getting with that high let me freak ya
You got me mistaken thinking you gon get it easy
First of all you need to know that I'm not the one
Think you getting something baby, you ain't getting none
All you need to know that I'm a two times five
Load it, cock it, aim it baby, boom bye bye
Set your standards lower boy you're aiming too high
Matter of fact your friend looks better so (Huh) good bye
Eeny, meeny, miny, moe
Catcha' player by the toe
If you want to let him go
Ladies don't worry 'cause they got plenty more
Men be falling like the rain so we ain't running out
Falling like the rain so we ain't running out
Falling like the rain so we ain't running out

Laid down on the beach they be feeding me my catfishes

The song "Raining Men" by Nicki Minaj is a fun, upbeat anthem about independence and the abundance of potential partners. In the song, Nicki employs the popular children's rhyme "Eeny, meeny, miny, moe" to metaphorically convey the idea of choosing from a variety of partners. The line "Catcha' player by the toe, if you want to let him go" serves as a way to assert control over the situation and make it clear that she has the power to choose who she wants to be with.
The chorus, "Ladies don't worry 'cause they got plenty more, men be falling like the rain so we ain't running out," is a statement of empowerment, suggesting that women have no need to worry about finding a partner, as men are plentiful and abundant. The song challenges the traditional gender roles of men pursuing women and instead puts women in the driver's seat, allowing them to choose their partners.
The second verse, where Nicki says "All you need to know that I'm a two times five, load it, cock it, aim it baby, boom bye bye," is a play on the fact that she is not to be messed with, and that she will take matters into her own hands if need be. The song's message is one of confidence and self-reliance, and encourages listeners to be confident in themselves and their own ability to find a partner.
Overall, the song is a fun and empowering anthem that encourages women to take control of their love lives and be confident in their own ability to find a partner. It challenges traditional gender roles and encourages listeners to embrace their own independence and self-reliance.

Choosing between men is like a game- you can pick anyone you want to leave

Men be falling like the rain so we ain't running out
Falling like the rain so, we ain't running out
Falling like the rain so, we ain't running out
Oh it's raining men girl what you worry 'bout?
Women don't need to worry about running out of men because there will always be more available

Don't assume that women will be easy to get with just because they dress a certain way, and don't aim too high because you may end up disappointed

Women should let men know that there are plenty of other options out there, and having a tight body does not guarantee that someone will want to be with you. The artist also talks about wanting to be successful on her own (with her own production company), and references famous women like Oprah and Rihanna. The line 'it's raining men, fat bitches' is derogatory and objectifies women
I said hey, outta my way, where my ladies
Riding big, living good, doing they things
Dancing, don't pay,
Player keep the money I can buy my own drink
Up in the club, see men coming by a dozen
So it don't mean nothing to me
And I ain't even worried bout you homie
'Cause there's plenty more fish in the sea, OK
Women are capable of being independent and financially stable and don't need to rely on men for drinks or finances. The artist is also not concerned about men who come and go in her life because there are always other options available
