YMCA- Young Men Chasing Ass Auntie Fah (Fire Cut)
[Start] [Intro – Spoken / Disco Bass Warming Up] Mmm. [Dry Laugh] This one is for the gentlemen who joined the gym for “upper body strength.” [Dry Laugh] [pause] Baby, your upper body was not the only thing you were trying to strengthen. [Beat Drops] [Verse 1] He got a towel on his shoulder Membership card in his hand Said he came for cardio But he keeps scanning the stands Steam room fog Little cough, little glance Two grown men stretching Like paperwork stands a chance He says, “I’m just friendly” With his wedding ring hid Auntie said, “Darling, that lie got kids.” [Pre-Chorus] Lockers clicking Showers run Everybody nervous Everybody fun You came here quiet Trying to act so class But this whole place full of [Chorus] Young men chasing ass Young men chasing ass At the gym, at the spa By the smoothie glass Young men chasing ass Young men chasing ass In a towel, in denial Moving way too fast You can call it fitness You can call it jazz But Auntie knows Young men chasing ass [Verse 2] Local rec center Tuesday after work One man lifting dumbbells Like his feelings don’t hurt One man in the sauna With a magazine prop Been on the same page Since the beat done dropped He says, “No homo” Then checks his phone twice Baby, “no homo” Don’t need mood lights Pool lane closed But the deep end packed Everybody floating With a secret intact [Pre-Chorus 2] Clipboards sweating Front desk froze Somebody’s husband Lost his gym clothes You came for laps And a protein shake Now your whole little alibi Starting to ache [Chorus] Young men chasing ass Young men chasing ass At the gym, at the spa By the smoothie glass Young men chasing ass Young men chasing ass In a towel, in denial Moving way too fast You can call it wellness You can call it class But Auntie knows Young men chasing ass [Break – Spoken / Bass Walks] Sir. Do not look offended. You have been walking past that same water fountain for twenty-three minutes. [pause] Either drink, flirt, or dehydrate with dignity. [Verse 3] One says “bro” One says “man” One says “spot me” Like that was the plan One says “I’m straight” With a wink too loud Auntie said, “Straight?” Baby, not in this crowd I don’t out nobody That is not my lane But I will read the room And mispronounce your shame Come as you are Or come as you can Just stop lying badly In front of a grown woman, damn [Bridge – Smoother / Sincere Under The Filth] Under all that joking There’s a truth in the steam Some boys spend years Being scared of a dream Trying to look normal Trying to stay small Trying not to want What they wanted at all Auntie don’t shame you For wanting what’s real I shame bad posture And tragic sex appeal You don’t need a locker For the truth in your chest Take your little mask off Let that body rest [Final Chorus] Young men chasing ass Young men chasing ass At the gym, at the spa By the smoothie glass Young men chasing ass Young men chasing ass In a towel, in denial Moving way too fast You can call it fitness You can call it class But Auntie knows Young men chasing ass Young men chasing ass Young men chasing ass If the towel fits, baby Let it flap Auntie saw nothing But Auntie saw that [Outro – Spoken / Disco Fades] Now for legal purposes... This song is about exercise. Community wellness. Hydration. [pause] And whatever Marcus was doing behind the vending machine. Shameful. Flexible. But shameful. [End]
