Throwing Shade, Throwing Shine Lyrics by Lilly Singh

2016

Part 1: Throwing Shade

[Verse 1]
Alarm clock, you had one job
You're as useless as the G in lasagna
No time to get ready today
This outfit is so ugly One Direction went the other way
This microwave is frustatin'
You remind me of the guys that I dated
You're loud and annoying like my ex who complicated
I always push your buttons and you always keep me waiting
You call this a burrito
It's fallin' apart like my life
Man, I can't eat you
I'll regret every bite
Man, I thought I left my parking spot
But this whole freeway is just a giant parking lot
And you drivers got talent
Cause this looks one big mannequin challenge
Off the next ramp, smooth sailin' for me
Hit a speed bump and all my things
Spilled a lot of tea like I got some magazine
Now my thighs burning like I went to the GYYYMMMM

[Transition]
You know, maybe I'm thinking about life the wrong way
(tape rewind)

Part 2: Throwing Shine

[Verse 2: Lilly Singh + Manjeet]
Alarm didn't wake me up and now I'm running late
But look out the window, it's such a sunny day
Lilies love photosynthesis feed me Mr. Sun
I have to admit you're hot, oops, gotta run
My room is very messy, can't find anything that goes
But all this on the floor is lookin' super cool
This outfit doesn't match but have no fear
You're one of a kind girl, the best type of weird
My burrito fell apart, big mess on my plate
So time for a spoon you're too yummy to waste
Periods cramps, I'm so uncomfortable
I'm such a fertile woman, ovaries so functional
Oops, dropped my phone, made a crack in the screen
Hey it gives you character, now you're unique
Just got a message from Miranda Sings
A couple misspelled words but you're still my queen
And I'm stuck in traffic and nobody really movin'
Except for me to my favorite song groovin'
Everyone is fed up and they're bangin' on their horns
Music to my ears, the boop a doo boop a song
That car came out of nowhere and cut into my lane
I know you're probably late, here's a smile and a wave
Don't need to hold a grudge 'cause nothing was lost
Good thing I'm a pro and I drive like a boss
Off the next ramp, smooth sailin' for me
But slow down, I don't wanna spill all my tea
Cute boy on the streets just noticed me
Man, I'm not toilet paper but I'll be all up on that booty
Coming to my meeting, found a great parking spot
Man, my timing is so great that I could be a watch
Didn't wax my upper lip but no need to freak
All that extra hair will help me turn into Manjeet (Hello)

[Interlude 2]
Hey cumulus clouds, I like the way you float up there like giant pieces of cotton candy. You make me so hungry
Hey mailbox, I appreciate that you provide an alternative method of communication for grandparents everywhere that don't know how to use email
Hey walk signal button, thanks for letting me press you over and over again, even though technically, I only need to press you once
Bugs, I love the way you buzz
Random rock, you rock!
Hey doormat, I love that I can walk all over you, and you still have self-esteem
Hey door, I love how you take me from outside to inside, or inside to outside, or outside to outside, or inside to inside
Hey shoelaces, no matter how many knots I tie, you still seem to come undone, and I admire that persistence
VOC Media Player, I love that you play everything, but you still so loyal
Hey door handle, I love the way you... door handle

[Hook]
If we're always throwin' shade
Then we'll darken up our days
If we want a better time
Then let's start throwin' shine
Throwin' shine
Throwin',Throwin' shine
If we want a better time
Then let's start throwin' shine
