No Excuses Lyrics

[Intro]
Woo
Huh

[Verse 1]
What you sippin' on that got you talking crazy?
Lookin' at me sideways, always coming at me
Why you, why you acting hard when you just a baby?
Boy, I keep it real with you, but you trying to play me

[Pre-Chorus]
Have you lost your mind?
Open up your eyes
Huh

[Chorus]
Someone else
You must've confused me, confused me with
Someone else
You must've confused me, confused me with
Someone else
There ain't no excuses, excuses, babe
Someone else
'Cause your mama raised you better than that, huh

[Verse 2]
What you sippin' on that got you talking crazy? (Hey)
Lookin' at me sideways (Woo), always coming at me
Why you, why you acting like you never met a lady?
I don't disrespect you, don't you disrespect me

[Pre-Chorus]
Have you lost your mind? (Lost your mind)
Open up your eyes (Up your eyes)
Huh

[Chorus]
Someone else
You must've confused me, confused me with
Someone else (Woo)
You must've confused me, confused me with
Someone else
There ain't no excuses, excuses, babe
Someone else
'Cause your mama raised you better than that, huh

[Post-Chorus]
Woo, get it
'Cause your mama raised you better than that (That's right, say)
'Cause your mama raised you better than that

[Bridge]
Have you lost your mind?
Open up your eyes (Your eyes)
Huh

[Chorus]
Someone else
You must've confused me, confused me with (Confused me, baby)
Someone else
You must've confused me, confused me with (Woo)
Someone else
There ain't no excuses, excuses, babe (No excuses, no, no)
Someone else
'Cause your mama raised you better than that, huh (How she raise you? Say)

[Outro]
You must've confused me, confused me with (Hey, come on, woo)
Your mama raised you better than, better than that
There ain't no excuses, excuses, babe (Yeah, baby)
'Cause your mama raised you better than that, huh (She raised you better than that)

What did Meghan Trainor say about "No Excuses"?

What does "No Excuses" mean?

You have no excuse to be disrespectful. There’s no need for it. You’re hurting yourself. I get confused sometimes, because I’m 24. I’m young in this industry. But I talk to people who are twice my age, and they’re disrespectful. I’m like, ‘Shouldn’t you be more mature than I am?’ Those conversations...

What inspired this song?

Everyone in my family. Everyone on my team, “How can I wri...
