bbno$ Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I went, "Whoa-oh-oh"
Girlie told me, "Buy that new purse"
I said, "No-o-o"
Everybody seems so proud that I'm chartin' now
And I don't know why but it seems that I'm uninterested
Finally felt right and I bought myself pearls
Oh shit, I'm enthusiastic
'Cause now I got rich and I'm glad this ain't a bit
No way, don't care, won't do it your own way, na-na-na
I don't know why but it seems that I'm uninterested
I'm so impressed with myself, you'll stay interested
Uninterested
Sippin' Five Alive
I'm glad I got some gin to pair
All I got is time, I got a watch I always wear
Cute girls on my side, I will not judge ya if you stare
I don't know why but it seems that I'm uninterested
400K straight to the bank, levitate
Don't let my water still, only sippin' Perrier
Do not rep chains, got a degree, lemonade
Find me pipin' yoga thots 'cause I need to meditate
She hit the downward dog
She a champ, no pog
I don't know why but it seems that I'm uninterested
I'm so impressed with myself, you'll stay interested
Uninterested
Whoa, oh-oh
Uninterested
