[Chorus]
Wave ya hand if you look good
Throw some shade if you look good
Wave ya hand if you look good
Anyway, bitch, I look good
Wave ya hand if you look good
Throw some shade if you look good
Wave ya hand if you look good
Anyway, bitch, I look good (Uh-huh, yo, yo)

[Verse 1]
Now tell them bitches anyway
'Cause we don’t care what none of them gyal affi say
You can’t stop me, I’ma fulfill the prophecy
I do it, I did it, the proper way
On my property, now watch how we operate
Bottles on ice, the bottles is on ice
The VIP lights is hittin' us just right
So if you gettin' money, just throw it up in the air
Yeah, hands in the air like I was your puppeteer
'Cause I, I, I, I am Zolanski
Some call me Barbie, yes, I’m life-size
Yes, I am humble, yes, but why lie?
I am the reason why these girls go bye-bye

[Chorus]
Wave ya hand if you look good
Throw some shade if you look good
Wave ya hand if you look good
Anyway, bitch, I look good
Wave ya hand if you look good
Throw some shade if you look good
Wave ya hand if you look good
Anyway, bitch, I look good (Uh, yo)

[Verse 2]
Okay, now, this right here could get me in trouble
'Cause when I say I ball, I don’t mean in a huddle
I’m always in the lime, I never do nothin' subtle
'Cause it’s Pink Friday, ho, that's their rebuttal
My two guns up, let's blaze it, let's go
I keep a lot of money up in the Escrow
And when I’m at the game, I’m in the best row
I am the baddest bitch up in the pet store
'Cause I, I, I, I am Onika
And these shoes here mean fashionista
‘Cause these don’t come out 'til it's Easter
I’m VIP bound with Leighton Meester

[Chorus]
Wave ya hand if you look good
Throw some shade if you look good
Wave ya hand if you look good
Anyway, bitch, I look good
Wave ya hand if you look good
Throw some shade if you look good
Wave ya hand if you look good
Anyway, bitch, I look good

[Bridge]
Yah, yah, yah, yah, yah
Yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[Mumbling]
Yah yah yah, yah yah, yah, yah, yah yah, yahhhh

[Chorus]
Wave ya hand if you look good
Throw some shade if you look good
Wave ya hand if you look good
Anyway, bitch, I look good
Wave ya hand if you look good
Throw some shade if you look good
Wave ya hand if you look good
Anyway, bitch, I look good

Nicki Minaj

Born December 8, 1982, Onika Tanya Maraj-Petty, better known by her stage name Nicki Minaj, is a Trinidadian-American rapper, actress, singer, songwriter, and entrepreneur.

Nicki was discovered by Lil Wayne via her mixtapes Sucka Free and Beam Me Up Scotty, and broke into the mainstream as an artist signed to Wayne’s label Young Money Entertainment. Her first successful songs, “Your Love,” “Moment 4 Life” (with Drake), and the smash-hit “Super Bass,” are featured on her 2010 chart-topping debut album Pink Friday.

She continued her run with her second studio album, Pink Roman Reloaded, which contained “Starships,” a song which would further develop Nicki’s pop/rap style. “Starships” gave Nicki a Billboard milestone, when it charted for 21 weeks in the top ten of the Billboard Hot 100, a feat no other artist has achieved without the aid of streaming services.
