[all]
Last call for alcohol
The club is almost closed
(that's right)
So I need your name and your number
(yo, yo)
Before the night is through
[tash]
Y'all wanna talk about drinking?
I took a drink, took a swallow
Left the champagne bottle hollow
Passed my keys to lil' talo
Can't crash the el dorado
You know how it go
When you sipping on mo'
You be tore up from the floor up
And you don't even know

[xzibit]
I had the bartender set up three shots
I knocked 'em back
Nitrate over the track
The whole crowd reacted
From right here through the ? ?
Baby relax you're rolling with me
It's mister a through x to the z

[sfp]
Going out with my friends
To celebrate the weekend
I hope the club is jumping
So I can find a little something
Wanna get my drink on
Wanna get my freak on
I'm gonna try to come on
Before the night is over

Last call for alcohol
The club is almost closed
So I need your name and your number
Before the night is through
Last call for alcohol
The club is almost closed
So I need your name and your number
Before the night is through

Checkin' for the sisters
Flossin' the prada
Dolce gabana baby can I holla?
You know I'm peepin' at'cha
Hoping I can catch ya

Can we dance before the night is over?
Come on, oh

Next round is on you
Tequila shots and brew
I'm getting faded yo
Cause I didn't drive

[tash](xzibit)
It's last call y'all so all y'all
It's time to pull your money out
Come through, post up
Peepin' all the honeys out
Smoke fest, guinness out
Got your homies passing out
(party down baby)
You know what x and ca-tash about

[xzibit]
Yo I stay with it
While you perpetrate and try to play with it
Something people with the all chrome
Custom fitted whatever you want
From the car straight to the bar
We're the la guns holding hennesy for everyone





Repeat 1 till end

Overall Meaning

"Last Call" by Something for the People is an energetic song about enjoying one last round of drinks and making a connection with someone special before the night ends. The lyrics are filled with references to the clubbing lifestyle, from sipping champagne and tequila shots to checking out fashion-forward women in designer clothing. The song is a celebration of living in the moment and not holding back when it comes to having fun.


Tash starts off the song with a reflection on the dangers of overindulging in alcohol, in which he talks about getting "tore up from the floor up" after sipping on mo' and taking a few too many shots. Xzibit then takes over with his signature smooth delivery, spitting rhymes about ordering three shots and watching the crowd "react" to the rhythm of the music. Finally, Something for the People offers a toast to the weekend and the end of the night, encouraging listeners to enjoy themselves and embrace the moment before it's too late.


Overall, "Last Call" is a catchy and upbeat song that captures the spirit of the club scene in the late 90s and early 2000s. It's a nostalgic journey back to a time when people could let loose and have fun without worrying about the challenges and struggles of everyday life.
