Mac Mac, Loreal [3.5] yep cause I'm worth it
Love the way I puts it on so perfect
Wipe the corners of my mouth so I work it
When I walk down the hallway they cant say nothin
Oh oh oh my lips so luscious
The way I spice it up with the Mac Mac brushes
Loreal got them most watermelon crushes
That's probably the reason all these boys got crushes [4]

When its time for lunch my lips still rock
Lil mama melon with the hot pink top
Cherry, vanilla, flavors its a virtue
They, lovin, lip gloss universal

They lip gloss cheap
It ain't my fault
But I could upgrade you
Show you how to use nice things with nice flavors

No Music [Clap x4]

Oh, Who you know spit it hard to a hand clap
She ain't whack
So I tell a corny n***a hand dat
To a record label while I get my hair wrapped
Then I let it fall under my New York Yankee cap
Anybody that know better
That got chedda
Bet go getta
Cuz ya already know I'm where its at
And if Im rollin Im ridin
I got my homies beside me
I tell Ben drop me off he like
Where its at
I gets it poppin
Im droppin
Ya'll know I dont play
And know my swag is official to what my flow say
And any club that's poppin my record gon play
Rest in peace to Haze and Lil Zay Zay

My Comments:
1. So far, I don’t know anything about you, except that you have awful, awful conceptions of grammar.
2. Ouch! Girlfriend, that sounds P-A-I-N-F-U-L.
3. Jockin? Do we perhaps mean jockeying? Or simply being jocks?
3.5. Loreal makes lip glos? Man, I am out of touch with the middle school world.
4. Hmm… boys have scary obsessions with lip gloss wherever Li’l Mama or whatever her name is, is from.
5. Well, now we know that you have, to some degree, a screwed-up self-image. In one verse you discuss how you’re “worth it” and then in the next breath think boys like you only for your lip gloss. We’ll see how this pans out.
6. …you need a new hobby. That’s what I know now.
7. I know that you need to work on concision. Repetition is only effective up to a point, and you assraped that point with a giant tube of lip gloss.
