Strange Things
Young Thug Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She say she won't drink her some lean
Do you know lean make you do strange things
Girl you know I love to do strange things
I love to do strange things
I love to do it
F-R-F-R, for real I love it
Slow down, baby girl slow iiit down
No weed baby, roll it around
Earn you a brand new coupe today

You can still ask Kunte
Now you flexing just like Lex Luger babe
I'm gone off lean, I'm a real lean mean
If this is a dream lets get it, oh, oh, baby
My diamonds in the booth just shaking
Ain't got no time to starve cause all my homies done take it
And I'm so tired of hearing bout prison, I really hope I make it
Free UnFunk, free my nigga Haze
Know the streets begging for them
This world really gay, good leave young, free TayTay
Lets get it

AK-47 that's a long horn
Hold a hundred grams inside my long johns
Brown Tru's stay with these Air Force ones
Two fifty shots, these not Air Force ones
100 thousand ones off in DOA(Guwop)
I don't know your name but I will bust your brain
I don't know your name, but I'll fuck your main dame
Hit her from the back, and chain swing
Who are you, what the fuck it do?
Soo-Crew, suwoop, it ain't nothing blue
I'm chopping my Reeses to pieces
I'm fucking these rich niggas nieces
I put on my Lebron South Beaches
Then hop off in that foreign feature

Baby girl slow it down, slow down
Baby girl slow it down, slow down




Baby girl slow it down
Baby girl slow it down

Thug tries to persuade the woman to drink it by highlighting what the drug would do to her, stating that it would make her do "strange things." He confesses his love for doing "strange things" and that he cannot get enough of it, denoting that lean is an essential component of his lifestyle. He then requests her to slow down and enjoy the moment while they intensify their endeavors.


The song's lyrics carry a dark and twisted meaning as they portray the hidden and addictive world of the drug culture. Thug tries to entice the woman to join him in his highly addictive and dangerous lifestyle while portraying himself as a real "lean mean."
