Girlfriend Lyrics

[Verse 1: Lupe Fiasco, Chris Brown]
We gon' do what we say
See us win, see that again (Yeah), call us instant replay
See us win, see that again, call us instant replay (Yeah, yeah, I got that bass)
Cop a coupe and then recoup, we call that instant rebate (Yeah, I got that bass, uh)
Say hello to your goodbyes, we continue to heatwave, Chris (Yeah, I got that bass, the bass, bass, bass, bass)

[Verse 2: Chris Brown]

Pretty little model, model, model
Follow me where I go, it look like a slideshow
It look like a slideshow, follow me where I go

[Pre-Chorus: Chris Brown]
My chain look like a car show, her body like a bottle

She know what I think like Jean Grey (Uh)
Stepped on in so cleanly

Your diamonds ain't got no class, we call them Dr. King Day
Our watches got them scholarships, with knowledge that she fine, yo

[Chorus: Chris Brown]
But I don't want your girlfriend (No)

[Outro: Chris Brown]
Don't want your girl
Don't want your girl
Don't want your girl
Don't want your girl
But why she singing just like?

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

Genius Annotation

In “Girlfriend,” Chris and Lupe try to convince a lady’s boyfriend that they’re not interested in her, despite his girlfriend being attracted to them. In the verses, they both name drop their natives, Virginia and Chicago, and flaunt their expensive modes of transport between the two areas.

“Girlfriend” is the second collaboration between Chris and Lupe following 2008’s “Forever (Remix)” which Lupe hopped on. They later collaborated on “Crack,” a track premiered live in 2014 but has never been officially released.
