[Hook: Big Boi]
From the weave to the fake eyes
To the fake nails, down to the toes
Ha ha ha ha! We luv deez hoez
Ha ha ha ha! We luv deez hoez
From the weave to the fake eyes
To the fake nails, down to the toes
Ha ha ha ha! We luv deez hoez
Ha ha ha ha! We luv deez hoez
[Verse 2: BackBone]
Ay, ay, what's up, lil' girl? I see you workin'✦ them Valente
She walk wit a fly sashay✦
Look here, say, I'm Mr. Fat Face, I come through swervin' (ay, ay)
You love the way the leather grippin'✦ your butt
Conversation✦ kill 'em, drippin'✦ em up
Relax,✦ shawty,✦ oh, lordy,✦ I quote the facts
Whippin'✦ convertible with Daddy✦ Fat Sax
I stay G sharp as a note of music
Call me fresh baked✦ bread, make a broad lose it
I'm just sayin' they just can't stand to see me execute game plan
I slow it down, she like it – speed it up
She poked✦ it out, I beat it up like that
Hit 'em from the back, had to increase that ho vocabulary
[Hook: Big Boi]
From the weave to the fake eyes
To the fake nails, down to the toes
Ha ha ha ha! We luv deez hoez
Ha ha ha ha! We luv deez hoez
From the weave to the fake eyes
To the fake nails, down to the toes
Ha ha ha ha! We luv deez hoez
Ha ha ha ha! We luv deez hoez
[Verse 3: Big Gipp]
Yeah, yeah, Gipp keep it double loco✦
Met up in Cafe Intermezzo for some late night pastry✦
Conversation✦ hasty,✦ 'cause I was ready✦ to dip
Sweatsuit velour,✦ so I ordered Kahlua
Fell in, hit her with the garden hose
Left her with the pokahose, got up and didn't say goodbye
Her face wrinkle up and froze, "Why you leavin'✦ so soon?"
Supposed to – and ain't no question✦ about✦ that
They call me Big Gipp on the Southside
Mr. Get Down in the veins, so what's the word?
Don't fall in love with good pussy✦ off the top
Better✦ leave for two months, come back and pop – study✦ the shit
[Hook: Big Boi]
From the weave to the fake eyes
To the fake nails, down to the toes
Ha ha ha ha! We luv deez hoez
Ha ha ha ha! We luv deez hoez
From the weave to the fake eyes
To the fake nails, down to the toes
Ha ha ha ha! We luv deez hoez
Ha ha ha ha! We luv deez hoez

Critic Analysis
RAPLEDGER BAROMETER™

BackBone utilizes a percussive, high-energy delivery that compensates for somewhat superficial lyricism, prioritizing rhythmic pocket-locking and playful bravado over complex linguistic layering.

"I beat it up like that"

① Physical sexual conquest.② A rhythmic or percussive reference to the act of 'beating' a track, aligning with the musical theme established in the previous bars.

Strong command of rhythmic pocket and syncopation

Effective use of vocal dynamics to emphasize punchline endings

Consistent thematic cohesion

Lack of complex metaphors or deep lyrical subtext

Reliance on colloquialisms that provide limited longevity
