BROCKHAMPTON - QUEER
[Verse 1: Matt Champion]
Skinny boy, skinny boy, where your muscles at?
Used to walk to work, eight hours, take the bus back
Ain't no time to stop, ain't no time for vacation
Y'all all want my spot 'cause you know that I am A1
All these pretty girls, they come running to our faces
I could do without, I could move without, I could do myself
I get in a rut, I feel depressed, I bang on my chest
I say fuck 'em all 'til I'm dead
[Verse 2: Merlyn Wood]
First off, fuck Dolce & Gabbana (Fuck em, fuck 'em)
Racist mothersuckers tryna be my pana (Pana, pana)
Put that on me auntie and me mama (Mommy, mommy)
Grab the Ghost then I go right back to Ghana (Skrrt)
I came back again (Ayy, ayy), with the platinum (Ayy, ayy)
To the continent (Ayy, ayy), I came back again (Ayy, ayy)
I came back again (Ayy, ayy), with the platinum (Ayy, ayy)
To the continent (Ayy, ayy), I came back again (Ayy, ayy)
[Pre-Chorus: Matt Champion & Kevin Abstract]
Don't go runnin' your mouth
Don't go runnin' your mouth (Watch your lip, baby)
Don't go runnin' your mouth
Don't go runnin' your mouth (W-w-watch your lip, baby)
Don't go runnin' your mouth
Don't go runnin' your mouth (Watch your lip, baby)
Don't go runnin' your mouth
Don't go runnin' your mouth (W-w-watch your lip, baby)
The title of the track “QUEER” can be seen as deceiving: most people would associate it with BROCKHAMPTON founder Kevin Abstract’s sexuality. On the contrary, this track follows the original definition of queer as being odd or strange; each verse gives reasons as to why each member is weird (Merlyn berating a designer brand, Matt being depressed despite being famous, etc). On Twitter, Kevin Abstract confirmed that the hook is inspired by OutKast. The song features background vocals from singer Ryan Beatty, who would later collaborate with BROCKHAMPTON on “BLEACH” and “LET’S GET MARRIED.”
