Qveen Herby Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tell me 'bout your day over some drinks at the bar
Eight months ago, I met you, and I'm still hanging on
This margarita's talking
But you give no response
Spend all your time correcting everybody
You ain't with me
And accidentally kissed me?
Know I'm in too deep now
What can I do about it?
Baby, baby
You play me out like a Nintendo (oh-oh)
I keep my feelings on the down-low (oh-oh)
Stuck on a level of a friend zone (oh-oh)
I need a miracle to keep my patience
Do me Luigi all your friends know (oh-oh)
Take all my coin and then you head home (oh-oh)
If it's game over, then just say so (oh-oh)
Why do you always change the conversation?
Why do I go crazy
When you talking to girls? (Why, why, why, why?)
Looking at your mouth
Trying to make out the words (why, why, why?)
I have to play it cool, and tell myself there's a chance
I never volunteered for this embarrassing dance
Spend all your time correcting everybody
You ain't with me
What about the time you slipped
And accidentally kissed me?
Know I'm in too deep now
What can I do about it?
Baby, baby
You play me out like a Nintendo (oh-oh)
I keep my feelings on the down-low (oh-oh)
Stuck on a level of a friend zone (oh-oh)
I need a miracle to keep my patience
Do me Luigi all your friends know (oh-oh)
Take all my coin and then you head home (oh-oh)
If it's game over, then just say so (oh-oh)
Why do you always change the conversation?
Ayy, stacked like a Big Mac (uh)
All my time, never get back (uh)
Sesame buns, I'ma kiss ass (yeah)
Lie to myself when it is that (uh)
Can't do much with a wrist snap
Do too much with your six-pack
Held you down like a big strap
Dropped these cues, but you missed that, yeah
Shit show, open mic, no lights
This is where I go right, this is where I don't fight
Anyone you know around here, talking boundaries
Maybe if I leave
He won't wanna live without me
(Without me, without me, without me, without me, without me)
(You, you, you, you)
You play me out like a Nintendo (oh-oh)
I keep my feelings on the down-low (oh-oh)
Stuck on a level of a friend zone (oh-oh)
I need a miracle to keep my patience
Do me Luigi all your friends know (oh-oh)
Take all my coin and then you head home (oh-oh)
If it's game over, then just say so (oh-oh)
Why do you always change the conversation? (Change the conversation)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Take all my coin and then you head home
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
If it's game over, then just say so
Oh, oh, oh
If it's game over, then just
If it's game over, then just say so
The song "Nintendo" by Qveen Herby is about a person who is stuck in the friend zone but wants to be in a romantic relationship with their crush. The lyrics describe the frustration of being interested in someone who doesn't seem to reciprocate feelings. The singer feels like they are being played like a video game and are stuck on a level of a friend zone, unable to progress any further in the relationship. Despite this, they still hold onto hope and continue to try to win over the affection of their crush.
The chorus of the song repeats the line "You play me out like a Nintendo," which serves as a metaphor for being manipulated and controlled by the crush's actions. The singer feels like they are being used for the crush's entertainment and left with nothing when the game is over. The lyrics also touch on the idea of jealousy when the singer talks about going crazy when their crush talks to other girls and trying to decipher their words with their eyes.

I put on some makeup, pick me up in your car
I dress up and expect you to show up in your car so we can hang out
Tell me 'bout your day over some drinks at the bar
Let's get some drinks and you can tell me about your day
Eight months ago, I met you, and I'm still hanging on
We met eight months ago, and I'm still into you
This margarita's talking
I'm getting drunk and saying things that I might regret
But you give no response
But you're not responding to me
Spend all your time correcting everybody
You spend all your time correcting everyone, but not paying attention to me
You ain't with me
You're not with me even though we hang out

Why do you always change the conversation?
Why do you always change the subject and not address our relationship?
Looking at your mouth, trying to make out the words (why, why, why?)
I'm trying to understand what you're saying and see if there's anything more between us
I have to play it cool, and tell myself there's a chance
I'm trying to play it cool and convince myself that there's still hope for us
Ayy, stacked like a Big Mac (uh)

Held you down like a big strap
I've been there for you like a big strap or support system
Dropped these cues, but you missed that, yeah
I've tried to hint at my feelings for you, but you're not catching on
Shit show, open mic, no lights
This is a bad situation with no clear way out
This is where I go right, this is where I don't fight
I'm going to do what's best for me and not fight against the situation
Anyone you know around here, talking boundaries
I'm questioning if you're setting boundaries with other people around here
Maybe if I leave, he won't wanna live without me
Maybe if I leave, you'll realize what you're missing and want to be with me
Take all my coin and then you head home
You're using me and then leaving
If it's game over, then just say so
If there's no chance for us, just tell me
Why do you always change the conversation? (Change the conversation)
Why do you avoid talking about our relationship?
