Be My Guest
Summer Banton Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Funny how you said you want me
Apply the pressure
Then you go and leave me lonely
Know that your agitated
Ain't been communicating yeah
Really thought I wouldn't notice
I can see it in your eyes

Ohhhhhh
Tired of you talking with those same old indirects
Seems like there is something you won't get up off your chest
Think you'll hurt my feelings, so I'll help you with the rest
If you wanna leave then baby boy just be my guest


You're wasting time
You're wasting time
Yeah
If you wanna leave then baby boy just be my guest
You're wasting time
You're wasting time
Yeah
If you wanna leave then baby boy just be my


Shhhh
Another wasted dead end conversation
Running your mouth quick to argue
Killing the vibe yeah that's all you
If you gave more time more time
You'd see your blessings aligned
Now they're on the decline


Tired of you talking with those same old indirects
Seems like there is something you won't get up off your chest
Think you'll hurt my feelings, so I'll help you with the rest
If you wanna leave then baby boy just be my guest


You're wasting time
You're wasting time
Yeah
If you wanna leave then baby boy just be my guest
You're wasting time
You're wasting time
Yeah
If you wanna leave then baby boy just be my


Boy I warned you once
But you did me dirty twice
Never lost my feelings overnight
You just got lucky
I didn't wanna cut these ties
I've checked you right out of my mind
Mind


You're wasting time
You're wasting time
Yeah
If you wanna leave then baby boy just be my guest
You're wasting time
You're wasting time
Yeah
If you wanna leave then baby boy just be my
Guest
All communication's down down down down

You're wasting time




You're wasting time
Yeah

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Summer Banton's song "Be My Guest" depict a relationship that has reached a breaking point. The singer expresses their frustration with their partner's behavior and lack of communication. They notice that their partner has become distant and agitated, but they pretend not to notice. The singer can see the truth in their partner's eyes, even though they refuse to admit it.


The chorus of the song highlights the singer's desire for honesty and directness. They are tired of their partner's indirect remarks and the feeling that something is being left unsaid. The singer offers to help their partner express their true feelings, believing that by doing so, they will ultimately realize that leaving is the best option.


The second verse portrays a frustrating cycle of arguments and wasted conversations. The partner's tendency to constantly argue and kill the positive energy within the relationship is emphasized. The singer suggests that if the partner invested more time and effort, they would see that their blessings and overall happiness are diminishing.


In the bridge, the singer reflects on the past and acknowledges that they have warned their partner about their behavior before. Despite being hurt multiple times, they admit that they have tried to hold onto the relationship. However, the singer reassures themselves that they have now removed their partner from their mind and are ready to let go.


Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of frustration and disappointment in a relationship where communication has broken down. The singer encourages their partner to take the step of leaving if they truly want to, as they believe that the time spent in the relationship is being wasted.
