A scrub is a guy who thinks he's fly
(tear down men's self esteem)
And is also known as a buster
(social bullying)
Always talkin' about what he wants
(possesses ambition)
And just sits on his broke ass
(false assumptions, acceptance of the white racial frame's stereotypes of blacks)
So (no)
I don't want your number (no)
I don't want to give you mine and (no)
I don't want to meet you nowhere (no)
I don't want none of your time and (no)
-maybe i was just looking for a friend! stop hypersexualizing me!
[Chorus:]
I don't want no scrub
(gender specific pejoratives)
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
(classist issues? why is not love blind?)
Hanging out the passenger side
(And? Why cant brothers show fraternity and ride together?)
Of his best friend's ride
(Yes, I am a black man, and I have friends. I am not what you depict me as)
Trying to holler at me
(Yes, I am a black man, and every exchange with a black woman is not sexual in nature)
I don't want no scrub
(sexist)
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hanging out the passenger side
Of his best friend's ride
Trying to holler at me
(sickening)
In short, men, we should boycott sexist artists like these whose lyrics are morally irresponsible. It is our duty and civic responsibility to advocate for the purity of the male gender, and to stand united against hate spewing hatemongers.
