Woo, woo
Beaucoup bitches in the lobby (in the lobby, ayy)

Beaucoup bottles on the counter (on the counter, yeah)

Tell a friend to tell somebody (tell somebody, yeah)
We about to start the party (start the party)
I told my niggas I'mma pull up to the party
Give me twenty minutes (I'm on the way)
Show up in some leather pants
With some bitches you ain't even know existed (you know it)
Tossed up a lot of motherfuckin' money
She said, "Let me guess, you a drug dealer" (huh?)
Said, "Nah, I just brought a lot of money
And a whole lot of drugs with me" (yeah)
You don't smoke loud, be quiet
(Shut the fuck up, nigga)
All hail that nigga Swae Lee
I done told y'all too many times (yeah)
Five bad bitches sittin' in line (line)
Fuckboys, hatin' on me from the side (woo)
Can't see y'all niggas, I'm blind
Y'all niggas ain't Swae like mine
Y'all niggas ain't real, stop lyin' (lyin')
Them hoes I fuck be dimes
Them bitches I diss be yours (yours)
Everything I touch turns gold (yeah)
My bankroll just won't fold (nope)
Goddamn them hundreds too old (oh)
Gettin' money my favorite sport (yeah)
Carrera my favorite Porsche (yeah)
Beaucoup bitches in the lobby (in the lobby, ayy)
Bust it open like piñata (like piñata, ayy)
Beaucoup bottles on the counter (on the counter, yeah)

We about to start the party (start the party)
Slim Jxmmi, got a whole bunch of hip bitches with me
Got your main girl on a bean, on the lean
Shakin' like a walkin' tambourine for the green
I can show you how to start a party
I can show you how to pop a bottle
I can show you how to get retarded
Pop the cork on this Dom Perrier
Pour it all on your body, yeah
I'm the truth, I can't lie
Got Chinese women like Shanghai (Shanghai)
Playboy bunnies on stand by (wait)
If you can make it clap, put your hands up (clap)
Who got the ass I can grab-a?
Let me see you see you clap for the camera
I'ma throw a whole lotta cash out
(Whole lotta, whole lotta cash out, hey)
Walked in the party, gotta booze (gotta booze?)
Rockstar, so I mixed it with the juice, juice, juice, juice
Bad bitches bust it, come here let me touch it (woo)
The money keep fallin', her ass keep jumpin' (hey)
Beaucoup bitches in the lobby (in the lobby, ayy)
Bust it open like piñata (like piñata, ayy)

The lyrics of Rae Sremmurd’s song Start a Party are all about living life to the fullest and experiencing the wildest moments in your youth. The repetitive chorus “This is how you start a party” emphasizes just how much fun the party is and encourages listeners to join in the fun. With lines like “Beaucoup bottles on the counter” and “Tossed up a lot of mothafuckin' money” the song suggests that excess is a way to celebrate and the more the merrier when it comes to champagne, women and cash.
The first verse conveys the hedonistic nature of the lyrics with the smooth flow of “I told my niggas I'mma pull up to the party, give me 20 minutes/ Show up in some leather pants/ With some bitches you ain't even know existed.” This is all about living life like a rockstar, pushing the boundaries of excess and enjoying the company of people beyond your usual social circles. Slim Jxmmi’s melody takes over in the second verse, rapping about how he can create the ultimate party atmosphere with his presence and how the crowd can be encouraged to get wild.
Overall, Rae Sremmurd’s Start a Party captures the essence of what it's like to be young and reckless, living life to the fullest, and enjoying the party life.
