"Yummy" as written by and Jason Boyd Justin Bieber....
Yeah, you got that yummy, yum
That yummy, yum
That yummy, yummy
Yeah, you got that yummy, yum
That yummy, yum
That yummy, yummy
Say the word, on my way
Yeah babe, yeah babe, yeah babe
Any night, any day
Say the word, on my way
Yeah babe, yeah babe, yeah babe
In the morning or late
Say the word, on my way
Bonafide stallion
You ain't in no stable, no, you stay on the run
Ain't on the side, you're number one
Yeah, every time I come around, you get it done
Fifty-fifty, love the way you split it
Hunnid racks, help me spend it, babe
Light a match, get litty, babe
That jet set, watch the sunset kinda, yeah, yeah
Rollin' eyes back in my head, make my toes curl, yeah, yeah
Yeah, you got that yummy, yum
That yummy, yum
That yummy, yummy
Yeah, you got that yummy, yum
That yummy, yum
That yummy, yummy
Say the word, on my way
Yeah babe, yeah babe, yeah babe
Any night, any day
Say the word, on my way
Yeah babe, yeah babe, yeah babe
In the morning or late
Say the word, on my way
Standing up, keep me on the rise
Lost control of myself, I'm compromised
You're incriminated, no disguise
And you ain't never running low on supplies
Fifty-fifty, love the way you split it
Hunnid racks, help me spend it, babe
Light a match, get litty, babe
That jet set, watch the sunset kinda, yeah, yeah
Rollin' eyes back in my head, make my toes curl, yeah, yeah
Yeah, you got that yummy, yum
That yummy, yum
That yummy, yummy (and you stay flexing on me)
Yeah, you got that yummy, yum
That yummy, yum (yeah)
That yummy, yummy
Say the word, on my way
Yeah babe, yeah babe, yeah babe (yeah babe)
Any night, any day
Say the word, on my way
Yeah babe, yeah babe, yeah babe (yeah babe)
In the morning or late
Say the word, on my way
Hop in the Lambo, I'm on my way
Drew House slippers on with a smile on my face
I'm elated that you are my lady
You got the yum, yum, yum, yum
You got the yum, yum, yum, whoa
Whoa-ooh

For example, he proclaims,
“Any night, any day
Say the word, on my way
Yeah babe, yeah babe, yeah babe
In the mornin' or the late
Say the word, on my way.”
As far as the writing, I feel like it’s much too forced in the carnal and sexy attempts here. He really seems to lack creativity in this one as he calls himself as “stallion” of sex, as noted in:
“Bona fide stallion
Ain't in no stable, no, you stay on the run
Ain't on the side, you're number one
Yeah, every time I come around, you get it done (You get it done).”
Perhaps this metaphor might appeal Kentucky Derby or equestrian fans, but it’s honestly not crossing the finish line for me aesthetically. Besides, it definitely confuses me, especially when he is allegedly so religiously devout.
His lyrics in “Yummy” to me are more crummy and indicative of “Sex in the City” vibes than true artistry.
For an Artiste who has songs topping the charts, Yummy seems a little bit under the belt.
It seems to be the lyrics actually, not as catchy as I anticipated. It lacks the kind of appeal you expect once you hear the name "Justin Bieber". I prefer to listen to songs over and over so as to get a full grasp of what's actually on.
As I listened again, I increasingly found the word "yummy" unattractive. The fact that it was repeated in the chorus just makes it worse. If Justin was trying to reach on to the ladies on this one, which I think is the deal, he didn't make a great word pick.
Even though the song is doing pretty good on the charts, making the second spot in barely 2 weeks of release, it still has not satisfied the Hunger Justin has created in me while on his Solo vacation. This is not the worst song ever heard but it isn't on the A list either. It is a song that will rake massive online listens, but I think it is one that won't be etched on our memories for too long.
It’s a feel-good happy song about devotion. It’s one of those songs that makes me want to get up and dance with the man of my dreams. We can speculate all we want about what the song means or why he wrote certain words but ultimately, it’s a song that is meant to be fun. Its smooth beat gives us a gimps into what he has planned for this next album. Could it be more R&Bieber? I guess we’ll just have to wait and see!
Justin’s promo choices may be what hurt the song’s reputation in the end, because he pushed it so heavily on social media. Although I understand some of the criticism for Yummy, I think overall it’s a solid song with a good beat and a melody that gets stuck in your head. One thing that can’t be denied about Yummy; it’s a classic example of a catchy, bubblegum pop song by an artist who’s an expert in the industry. And it’s definitely on my playlist.
In the fourth verse, he sings:
Fifty-fifty, love the way you split it
Hundred racks, help me spend it, babe
Light a match, get litty, babe
That jet set, watch the sunset kinda, yeah, yeah
Rollin' eyes back in my head, make my toes curl, yeah, yeah
The verse clearly gives an in insight into Justin’s sex life and there is no other obvious way he could’ve written it.
Before the bridge, he sings:
Hop in the Lambo, I’m on my way
Drew House slippers on with a smile on my face
I’m elated that you are my lady
You got the yum, yum, yum, yum
You got the yum, yum-yum, woah
Woah-ooh
We see that Bieber creates product placement by mentioning his “Drew House” slippers – his own fashion line which features a smiley face logo and the word “Drew”, his middle name, on what is usually comfortable and loose-fitted clothing. After the product placement verse, Bieber returns to describing how essentially “yummy” Hailey Bieber is.
Bieber has now begun a new era, with his recent release of the song “Yummy.” While this has been met with mixed reviews, many people have been excited to see Bieber ready to release new music, and I for one am ready to see this next album experiment with a variety of new styles, tones, and genres as we see a new decade of Justin Bieber.
