Wow. Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Said she tired of little money, need a big boy
Pull up 20 inch blades like I'm Lil’ Troy
Now it's everybody flockin', need a decoy
Shawty mixing up the vodka with the LaCroix, yeah
G-Wagen, G-Wagen, G-Wagen, G-Wagen
All the housewives pullin’ up (Up, up)
I got a lot of toys, 720S bumpin' Fall Out Boy

You was talkin' shit in the beginning (Mm-mm)
Back when I was feelin' more forgivin' (More forgivin')
I know it piss you off to see me winnin' (See me winnin')
See the igloo in my mouth when I be grinnin’ (I be grinnin’), yeah

[Chorus]
Hunnid bands in my pocket, it's on me
Hunnid deep when I roll like the army
Get more bottles, these bottles are lonely
It’s a moment when I show up, got 'em sayin', "Wow" (Wow, wow)
Hunnid bands in my pocket, it's on me (On me)
Yeah, your grandmama probably know me (Know me)
Get more bottles, these bottles are lonely
It’s a moment when I show up, got 'em sayin', "Wow" (Wow, wow)


[Verse 2]
Everywhere I go (Hey)
Catch me on the block like I'm Mutombo (Wow)

750 Lambo in the Utah snow (Skrrt)
Trunk in the front like that shit Dumbo, yeah

Cut the roof off like a nip-tuck
Pull up to the house with some big butts
Turn the kitchen counter to a strip-club (Yeah, wow)

Me and Dre came for the...
When I got guap, all of y'all just appeared (Wow)
Before I dropped Stoney, none of y'all really cared (Cared)
Now they always say, "Congratulations," to the kid (Kid)

And this is not a 40, but I'm pourin' out this shit (Yeah)
Used to have a lot, but I got more now (Yup)
Made another hit 'cause I got bored now (Yup)
Always goin' for it, never punt fourth down
Last call, Hail Mary, Prescott touchdown, ayy

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

Genius Annotation

“Wow.” is Post Malone’s first single for his third studio album, Hollywood’s Bleeding, and was also Post’s first release since his October 2018 collaboration with Swae Lee, “Sunflower.”

The song is thematically similar to “Congratulations,” a massive hit from his 2016 debut album Stoney which is even referenced in the second verse. Both songs focus on Post showing off his wealth, such as cars and money, to the people who doubted him before he was famous.

The cover art for Post’s collaboration with Young Thug, “Goodbyes,” has text that reads “Single 02,” suggesting “Wow.” is the first single from his third album. When “Wow.” was released, Post made significant changes to his social media accounts, most notably changing the color theme from yellow to blue. This change was representative of the color of his next album, which makes sense considering he shared thoughts of trying to release a new album back in November of 2018:

Trying to put out a new body of work before the end of the year but we all know how that goes wish me luck…
