The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Make Up Bag" by the artist "The-Dream"

Contents

The song "Make Up Bag" by The-Dream humorously depicts how men try to make amends with their girlfriends through expensive gifts.

The lyrical hero of the song returns home after a night out at the club and faces the wrath of his girlfriend. She suspects him of cheating after finding traces of lipstick and women's perfume on his clothes.

To calm her down and avoid a scandal, the hero resorts to a tried and true method – the "make-up bag." He's willing to spend five thousand dollars on a designer bag from Louis Vuitton, Prada, Hermes, or Fendi, just to get back in his beloved's good graces.

T.I., in his verse, complements the picture, suggesting that the girl should not limit herself to one bag but choose several at once, adding jewelry from Harry Winston to them.

The whole song is built on irony. The characters do not try to understand the relationship, discuss problems, or find a compromise. Instead, they use material goods as a means of manipulation and a quick fix for conflicts.

[The-Dream]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, uh-huh, okay

Yuh.. yuh.. uh-huh.. okay

Oh yeah, oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah

It's 2 in the mornin (it's 2 in the mornin)

I been out all night Patrn'in (all night Patrn'in)

She's sayin, "Sorry won't get it (sorry won't get it)

So sorry can't hit it" (so sorry can't hit it)

And she don't wanna hear me, h-hear me

Don't wanna be near me, n-near me

And she's in the right

Cause I got makeup all on my collar

Chanel № 5, is all on my shirt

But I ain't even holler

She pressin me out with nothin but her panties on

I'ma spend all night alone

But it's gon' be fine

Cause this works every time

[Chorus: The-Dream]

If you ever make your girlfriend mad

Don't let your good girl go bad

Drop five stacks on the makeup bag

Drop-drop five stacks on the makeup bag (yuh!)

Louie, Prada, Hermes, Fendi

Valentino; hell, they all make plenty

Five stacks on the makeup bag

Drop-drop five stacks on the makeup bag

The make up bag [x4]

Oh yeah!

She packin all of my shit, puttin it all on the left

(On the left, on the left, on the left, left)

Shawty screamin on me, I think a nga goin deaf

(Deaf, goin deaf, deaf)

If you could see how she lookin

She cain't stand the sight of meeeeee

I wanna be on her

But she don't wanna be on meeeeee

And she's in the right

Cause I got makeup all on my collar

Chanel № 5, is all on my shirt

But I ain't even holler

I'm up all night, she got me sleepin on the sofa

Just when I think that it's over

She said, "You don't wanna break up

then you know what to do to make up"

[Chorus: The-Dream]

If you ever make your girlfriend mad

Don't let your good girl go bad

Drop five stacks on the makeup bag

Drop-drop five stacks on the makeup bag (yuh!)

Louie, Prada, Hermes, Fendi

Valentino; hell, they all make plenty

Five stacks on the makeup bag

Drop-drop five stacks on the makeup bag

The make up bag [x4]

Oh yeah!

Ain't waitin on Cupid, Cupid

Nga I do this, do this

Money, power change your mind up in 24 hours

I do this, do this

Do this, do this [x3]

Do this

[T.I.:]

Hey, I get home late,

Shawty mad, I ain't did shit

I'm in the club wasted mind

In my own business

And they was on me,

I can't help the broads want me

Let's make up before we go to sleep,

What it's gon' be?

Chanel, YSL, Marc Jacobs, Gucci, Louie V

Pick you two or three,

And some Harry Winston jewelry

Maybe you'll see one day

That this ain't nuttin to a G

All I do for you,

Just a part of me doin me

See? I don't buy 'em

Cause you mad at me

Swear to God I just wanna see

Your sexy ass happy

So if it put a smile on your face

Hit the mall, pick a bag,

Black card on the way

Go!

[Chorus: The-Dream]

If you ever make your girlfriend mad

Don't let your good girl go bad

Drop five stacks on the makeup bag

Drop-drop five stacks on the makeup bag (yuh!)

Louie, Prada, Hermes, Fendi

Valentino; hell, they all make plenty

Five stacks on the makeup bag

Drop-drop five stacks on the makeup bag

The make up bag [x8]

Oh yeah!

Oh yeah, oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah

Oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah

Oh-oh-oh-oh-o-o-o-oh yeah!
