[Intro: Messy Mya]
What happened after New Orleans?
Bitch, I’m back by popular demand[Refrain: Beyonce]
Y’all haters corny with that illuminati mess
Paparazzi, catch my fly, and my cocky fresh
I’m so reckless when I rock my Givenchy dress (stylin’)
I’m so possessive so I rock his Roc necklaces
My daddy Alabama, Momma Louisiana
You mix that negro with that Creole make a Texas bamma
I like my baby hair, with baby hair and afros
I like my negro nose with Jackson Five nostrils
Earned all this money but they never take the country out me
I got a hot sauce in my bag, swag[Interlude: Messy Mya + Big Freedia]
Oh yeah baby, oh yeah I, ohhhhh, oh yes I like that
I did not come to play with you hoes, haha
I came to slay, bitch
I like cornbreads and collard greens, bitch
Oh yes, you best to believe it Article Continues Below[Refrain: Beyonce]
Y’all haters corny with that illuminati mess
Paparazzi, catch my fly, and my cocky fresh
I’m so reckless when I rock my Givenchy dress (stylin’)
I’m so possessive so I rock his Roc necklaces
My daddy Alabama, Momma Louisiana
You mix that negro with that Creole make a Texas bamma
I like my baby hair, with baby hair and afros
I like my negro nose with Jackson Five nostrils
Earned all this money but they never take the country out me
I got a hot sauce in my bag, swag[Chorus: Beyonce]
I see it, I want it
I stunt, yeah, little hornet
I dream it, I work hard
I grind ’til I own it
I twirl on them haters
Albino alligators
El Camino with the seat low
Sippin’ Cuervo with no chaser
Sometimes I go off, I go off
I go hard, I go hard
Get what’s mine, take what’s mine
I’m a star, I’m a star
Cause I slay, slay

Okay, okay, ladies, now let’s get in formation, cause I slay
Okay ladies, now let’s get in formation, cause I slay
Prove to me you got some coordination, cause I slay
Slay trick, or you get eliminated[Verse 1: Beyonce]
When he fuck me good I take his ass to Red Lobster, cause I slay
When he fuck me good I take his ass to Red Lobster, cause I slay
If he hit it right, I might take him on a flight on my chopper, cause I slay
Drop him off at the mall, let him buy some J’s, let him shop up, cause I slay
I might get your song played on the radio station, cause I slay
I might get your song played on the radio station, cause I slay
You just might be a black Bill Gates in the making, cause I slay

You know you that bitch when you cause all this conversation
Always stay gracious, best revenge is your paper[Outro]
Girl I hear some thunder
Golly this is that water boy, oh lord
The rumor mill has recently suggested that Beyoncé would be performing a new song titled exactly this at Sunday’s Super Bowl. It seems very likely now that those rumors are accurate.
When rumors of Beyoncé’s presence during Coldplay’s Super Bowl Half Time show first surfaced, many expected her to be performing “Hymn For The Weekend,” a new song on Coldplay’s A Head Full of Dreams that Bey features on.
Perhaps she’ll start with “Hymn” before going into “Formation?”
Regardless, it looks like it’s going to be a very packed Super Bowl Half Time Show on February 7.
The release of a new song is surely making fans wonder: Is a follow-up to Beyoncé on the way?
