Super Bass (Clean) Lyrics

[Intro: Nicki Minaj]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, hey

[Verse 1: Nicki Minaj]
This one is for the boys with the boomin' system
Top down, AC with the cooler system
When he come up in the club, he be blazin' up
Got stacks on deck like he savin' up
And he ill, he real, he might gotta deal
He pop bottles and he got the right kind of build
He cold, he dope, he might sell coke
He always in the air, but he never fly coach
He a motha motha trip, trip, sailor of the ship, ship
Whеn he make it drip, drip, kiss him on the lip, lip
That's thе kinda dude I was lookin' for
And yes, you'll get slapped if you're lookin', ho

[Pre-Chorus: Nicki Minaj]
I said, excuse me, you're a hell of a guy
I mean, my, my, my, my, you're like pelican fly
I mean, you're so shy and I'm loving your tie
You're like slicker than the guy with the thing on his eye, oh
Yes, I did, yes, I did
Somebody please tell em who the F I is
I am Nicki Minaj, I mack them dudes up
Back coupes up and chuck the deuce up
[Chorus: Nicki Minaj & Ester Dean]
Boy, you got my heartbeat runnin' away
Beatin' like a drum and it's comin' your way
Can't you hear that
Boom, badoom, boom, boom, badoom, boom, bass?

[Verse 2: Nicki Minaj]
This one is for the boys in the polos
Entrepreneur and the moguls
He could ball with the crew, he could solo
But I think I like him better when he dolo
And I think I like him better with the fitted cap on
He ain't even gotta try to put the mack on
He just gotta give me that look, when he give me that look
Then the panties comin' off, off, uh
[Pre-Chorus: Nicki Minaj]
Excuse me, you're a hell of a guy
You know, I really got a thing for American guys
I mean, sigh, sickenin' eyes
I can tell that you're in touch with your feminine side, uh
Yes, I did, yes, I did
Somebody please tell 'em who the F I is
I am Nicki Minaj, I mack them dudes up
Back coupes up and chuck the deuce up

[Chorus: Nicki Minaj & Ester Dean]
Boy, you got my heartbeat runnin' away
Beatin' like a drum and it's comin' your way
Can't you hear that
Boom, badoom, boom, boom, badoom, boom, bass?
He got that super bass
Boom, badoom, boom, boom, badoom, boom, bass
Yeah, that's that super bass
Boom, boom, boom, badoom (Bass, bass)
Boom, boom, boom (Bass, yeah)
Boom, boom, boom, badoom (Bass, bass)
Boom, boom, boom (Bass)

[Bridge: Nicki Minaj]
See, I need you in my life for me to stay
Know, know, know, know, know, I know you'll stay
No, no, no, no, no, don't go away, hey

Originally released on April 5, 2011, as a Pink Friday deluxe edition cut, “Super Bass” quickly turned into a massive hit. On the song, Nicki raps about love and legitimate industry dudes.

Nicki described the song herself in this way:

“Super Bass” is about the boy that you are crushing over, […] And you kind of want to get your mack on, but you’re taking the playful approach.

In 2013, the song had sold eight million copies in the United States, and has yet to be updated. It was also Nicki’s highest charting solo single at the #3 spot in the US until “Anaconda” overthrew it in 2014.
