Like A G6 Lyrics
Hook
Poppin bottles in the ice, like a blizzard
When we drink we do it right gettin slizzard
Sippin sizzurp in my ride, like Three 6
Now I’m feelin so fly like a G6
Like a G6, Like a G6
Now I’m feelin so fly like a G6
Verse 1
Gimme that Mo-Moet
Gimme that Cry-Crystal
Ladies love my style, at my table gettin wild
Get them bottles poppin, we get that drip and that drop
Now give me 2 more bottles cuz you know it don’t stop
(808) Hell Yeaa
Drink it up, drink-drink it up,
When sober girls around me, they be actin like they drunk
They be actin like they drunk, actin-actin like they drunk
When sober girls around me actin-actin like they drunk
Hook
Poppin bottles in the ice, like a blizzard
When we drink we do it right gettin slizzard
Sippin sizzurp in my ride, like Three 6
Now I’m feelin so fly like a G6
Like a G6, Like a G6
Now I’m feelin so fly like a G6
Verse 2
Sippin on, sippin on sizz, Ima ma-make it fizz
Girl i keep it gangsta, poppin bottles at the crib
This is how we live, every single night
Take that bottle to the head, and let me see you fly
(808) Hell Yeaa
Drink it up, drink-drink it up,
When sober girls around me, they be actin like they drunk
They be actin like they drunk, actin-actin like they drunk
When sober girls around me actin-actin like they drunk
Hook
Poppin bottles in the ice, like a blizzard
When we drink we do it right gettin slizzard
Sippin sizzurp in my ride, like Three 6

"Fly like a G6" is probably why you're here... Once again, Mtv is F***ing with you.
Most will say that G6 = Gulfstream G650, a twin-engine aircraft under development by Gulfstream Aerospace shown at the end of the video.
Another term to watch out for is their reference to "Three 6". AKA, The Three (triple six) 6 Mafia. A Hip-Hop group from Memphis, TN.
So what? Well, here it gets tricky. Most are going to do the visual association. It's a Jet or car. They're acting "gangster" and getting "slizzy" (a Southern term for tipsy). But let's remove what you've seen in the video (or 'told to see'), and maybe you'll be enlightened?
Urban Dictionary: G6
So taking def 1&2 (because we already acknowledge def 3) and getting "slizzy" is also an innuendo for a faux homophobic Southern drunk, who apparently isn't awesome, but not disappointing either. (like most drunks are) Meanwhile, the Three Six Mafia is from... so put it together:
"Like a G6" = "Like a Southern faux-homo drunk who's gonna let you down."
If you think I'm reading too much into it, then you're not giving Mtv enough credit. You MUST take into consideration who is paying who, and getting rich off of whom. But it gets ~VERY~ complicated when you add Three 6 Mafia (Southern) to the FM (F.E.M, and get this, they're Asian American) and The Cataracs (Californian). It gets worse: Snoop Dog and the Kardashians are involved. In fact, they've probably featured the song on the show, or are in the midst of producing one.
So, let's review:
Go ahead and shout racism, but the truth is, Mtv is well known to slip it by the censors. (see Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, 3Oh!3, etc.) It's their job. They hire psychiatrists for that sole purpose - To pinpoint their target audience.
Now let's get slizzy and fly our G6... :-S
And I'm sure CherryTree Records is flipping the bill...

Agree/disagree matters less than the fact that the above comment is exactly the purpose of this site. I'm sick of reading about how songs make everyone think of this ex, that a$$hole or some other asinine personal sob story lol. So thanks for not telling everyone why it makes you think of your first bf/gf, but rather dissecting the song into what you think its actual meaning may be. Cheers, and get slizzy!!! :-)

While it is seriously a great thing that you've dissected the song to such detail, there's no reason I should believe any of that because Urbandictionary.com is the foundation for your argument.

It was suppose to be silly, derp. There's no meaning in a pop song like this, however insanely catchy it may be.

808 bump refers to the bass. Roland TR-808 Rhythm Composer is a drum machine. They aren't talking about the area code.

Roland TR-808, TB-303, I thought everyone knew what these were? No DJ lives without one. All these "area code" theories are absurd. More so than my original post.

And yes, catchy beats, but mostly everyone is right about it being pure S****. Much like the rest of Mtv. It's almost like people don't know about Yelle, Mika, Donots, etc. American pop is always Eurotrash leftovers.

Apparently, being a negative bastard gets lots of attention, even when I know I'm wrong. ;-) But I still hate Mtv. Sowwy folks.
I think 808 is referring to the TR-808, a drum machine used by many people for its great sound.
OsmOsis could be right, who knows! Some people are just smart like that, but Far East Movement probably just wanted to make a party song and the lyrics needed to be very cool, hence they are filled with mentions to overly sung about cool things; Moet, Cristal, that fancy G6 jet, 808 drums.
THIS IS AN AWESOME SONG
If you put aside your pathetic critical boring opinions for just one second, you might actually listen to the music, and the catchy lyrics. Its a really good party song when your sober or drunk. The meaning is pretty straightforward, G6's are cool and fly so they're LIKE a G6 so its a similie not a metaphor....critical and uneducated I see!
Haha shame..
hell yah get it. This song is meant for clubs and its beat

Alright I had a major epiphany.
"Sippin sizzurp in my ride, like Three 6 Now I"m feelin so fly like a G6"
Sizzurp is drugs, codeine to be specific. http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=sizzurp
So she says that she drinks Sizzurp then she feels fly like a G6, which is a plane. The concept of the song is about being high on codeine and Promethazine both found in the cough syrup that is part of sizzurp. She is high like a plane. Also, sizzurp has no alcohol so that could explain the "sober girls around me, they be actin like they drunk".
"Take that bottle to the head, and let me see you fly" also follows because fly=high in this song.
I agree that this song is about getting high. They are just trying to promote a partying type of vibe on some kind of concoction and a recipe of death to someone while doing it while driving...Whatever sells i guess.

Well, this song proves it. We are living in a blank generation.
so...is this about being "fly"...like a pontiac?
Possibly. Or maybe a camera, or South African self-propelled howitzer.

G6 is slang for the Gulfstream G650, a really expensive private jet, over 58 million dollars.

Yeah, the Pontiac G6 is one of the least fly cars I can think of. It's just a normal whitebread family sedan.

The funny thing is, the party kids who listen to this shit say my music is satanic (Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin) when basically all those bands songs are about peace, love, revolution and other dark realities and how society is CONNECTED to Satan.
I'm not a bible basher or religious, but to be honest, this is one of the most "Satanic" songs I've ever come across if you think about what the bible says about drunkeness/alcohol and giving in to temptation/lust as referenced in the guys verses, and yeah, I've heard a lot of death metal in my time, and all that really does is drop Satans name.
Thirteen year old girls hear this on daytime radio and sing it constantly.
I believe in creative freedom but this is just mind control.
@OsmOsis - great great break down. Well thought through and totally appreciate the logical break down. To further add to to this:
808 = Area code for Hawaii.
A Bump = is considered, among other things, a flight leg
808 Bump is a hop or trip to Hawaii
The tune is very catchy and despite the obfuscation within the lyrics, it maintains a certain catchiness and uplifting element.
Something about being sober, and/or pretending to be drunk or being drunk. this song is ALWAYS at my high school dances, so it pretty much remindss me of this whole school year. i used to listen to it all the time so it kind of lost it's awesome way of urging me to dance. i usually hate mainstream but i like this song.
