[Lyric Limelight] Big Sean - I Do It - Finally Famous

Oh, that's your girl  
Well I don't give a Massachusetts
Okay I'm westside, westside till I'm died and underneath them tulips

In these bars, Sean starts out with his signature line, "Oh that's you girl."  When he says that he doesn't give a Massachusetts it sounds like "mass of two shits" as if he doesn't care.  However, this is a double entendre because it also means that he is not east side, where the state of Massachusetts is located.  In the next line, he says he's westside (the part of Detroit that he is from) until he dies.  This is a unique double entendre that is often missed in the song unless the listener is open to the word play and meaning of the second line.
