Your Wonderwoman wonderin why
Your Wonderland aint Wonderworld
I jump inside her underworld
Made her cum a hundred pearls

She pussy pop in the back to Window Shopping
Tint the windows, let the windows hide me
Crack the window, barrel stickin out
And stick em up, lit em up, roll windows up
The window wipers off
I work the TEC like Windows Microsoft
My Windows on defrost


It's always interesting to me to see how Wayne transitions from one topic to another. Sometimes there's no real connective tissue at all and a bar or line can stand alone with no context. In this case, however, there seems to be a smooth and natural transition from talking about someone else's girl to performing a drive-by, all thanks to the Window Shopping line (someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that's the FRVRFRIDAY track) and if you're extra imaginative, you can imagine her being a witness to everything that happens next.

Something I noticed that can help explain why a lot of Wayne's lyrics go over people's heads is that his cadence doesn't always include commas. What I mean is if you listen to the "crack the window" line, it sounds like he's saying "crack the window barrel, stickin out" which makes no sense until you look at it line by line. It's also not explicit at all what's actually going on unless you know what a drive-by looks like, so if you add that to the unorthodox cadence you can see why a lot of people have no idea what he's talking about.

The real gold here though are the first two and last two lines. In the first two, aside from the alliteration on the W, the clever part is the implication that even if you think you're all that, your girl still won't be as impressed with you as she will be with Wayne. Then the Microsoft line really showcases how his mind works because once again he takes something common and well known and relates it to gun violence with seemingly effortless wordplay. Even the windows frost up from how cold he is.
