I'm rollin' in a nine-oh van. california, that's my plan
Got memories mixalot left in limbo, first stop sacremento
Here we go, hit a club called bentleys
Want a skirt to git wit' me, hit me
There's a girl with a back like a cadillac
I walked up and got pushed back
Her boyfriend tell her i'm a play-a
Dropped salt on a shit rhyme say-
My reputation offends this man
Next day hit williamland park
Creepin' like a shark
Spot a bad freak and i swoop like a hawk
"what up?", "howya like to roll wit' a champ?"
"please! all ya'll rappers is tramps"
My reputation is stoppin' my mission
Every freak in sac is dissin'
Back on the four lane freeway
Next stop, the two-one-three, l.a.
The two-one-three is rough
But the mixalot game is tough
Spot a young girl and i start that gamin'
Baby girl asks what set am i claimin'
"just cuz i rap, i gotta be in gang?"
It ain't a black thang, it's a rap thang
Censorship is sweepin' the nation
Messin' up a rap stars reputation
A rappers reputation, that's what i got
So i'm finished with the two-one-three
I knock, baby, but it's time to leave
Two days on the hard rock, boys is cruisin'
Interstate ten, straight to houston
They tell me 'bout the girls in the fifth ward
You know the boys must score
So we hit a fly club called guchies
Lookin' for the skirts with the largest booties
Girlies in the club wasn't takin' no shorts
Showin' no remorse
For a brother like mix, lookin' for the smooth
Didn't need a houston skirt to get with me
But the nights still young
And the hunk ain't done
So we stepped to the van
Attitude's out of it
The next club, the main event
We never think about a dress code
Just step up in the club and let the game roll
But as soon as my boy maharaji pulls up
Some punk starts runnin' up
He said you don't wanna be with a rap star
They play you for your money and your car
Well my boy got crushed but the girl stepped off
With a rap stars rep, the girls are lost
"hey yo, what's up, this is mix i had to make a run
Right quick, but leave your name and number 'n i'll
Getcha right back, peace."
So the posse left houston texas
All the girls keep callin' us sexis
Houston media is givin' us rappers no pity
So we all hit kansas city
In k.c. we go the gates and suns
Gotta get grub 'fore we run
Met a little freak named stacy
I said i'm not just here for the barbecue baby
She gave me that look, like pebbles
I'm acked with bass not treble
So i say, oogley-goo oogley-doo-goo-doo
"what'd you say?" i ain't tellin' you
You see the mix game is laced with riddles
It ain't moaney, it's mix in the middle
In walked my ex named wendy
She got a fresh dooney bag
'cause she's tired of fendi
Oooh, could a brother be busted
Because wendy trusted, me?
An' ah told a lit'l lie 'n
Said i was a loyal guy
Wendy got mad and she wants to dis me
In kansas city
Wendy starts to groovin'
Hands on her hips and her hair starts movin'
She said the mixalot game is phony
Just 'cause i said i'm runnin' girls like ponies
But talkin' that stuff is my occupation
That's how i got this reputation
A rappers reputation, got a rappers reputation
Bring it on down. a rappers reputation, bring it back
A rappers reputation, that's what i got. a rappers
Reputation, peace.

歌詞解析
一句話主旨
說唱歌手在追求聲譽與現實衝突中的自我反思。
主題
探討說唱藝術家在名聲與現實生活之間的掙扎，以及社會對說唱文化的偏見與誤解。
情緒
自信中帶著挫敗、無奈裡隱含反思，並穿插對自身處境的荒謬感與自嘲。
意象與手法
以城市旅行為軸線，運用「卡迪拉克背」、「鯊魚潛行」、「鷹鷲俯衝」等具象比喻，凸顯說唱者對魅力與權力的追求；透過「Censorship is sweepin' the nation」等句，點出社會對說唱的壓抑與規範。
重點句解讀
1. 「My reputation offends this man」
声譽成為衝突源頭，反映說唱者因風格或行為遭他人排斥的矛盾。
2. 「It ain't a black thang, it's a rap thang」
指出說唱文化與種族的區分，強調藝術形式本身非族群問題。
3. 「A rappers reputation, that's what i got」
重複句式強調聲譽的雙重性，既是資產亦是枷鎖。
4. 「The mixalot game is laced with riddles」
比喻說唱世界充滿謎題與規則，隱喻藝術創作與社會現實的複雜關係。
適合情境
獨處時反思自我定位、面對社會偏見時的自我調適、或對藝術與名聲關係感到困惑的時刻。
魔鏡站長解析
魔鏡站長
這首歌聽起來就像是一場橫跨多個城市的公路冒險，紀錄著創作者在巡演途中，如何被大眾給予的標籤所困擾。歌詞寫實地描繪了那些因為身分而產生的誤解，當人們總是用刻板印象去看待一位饒舌歌手時，無論他走到加州、休士頓或是堪薩斯城，那種「被預設為花花公子」的無奈感便如影隨形。
站長覺得最有趣的地方，在於歌手並沒有想要極力辯解，反而用一種近乎自嘲的方式，將這些偏見轉化為創作的養分。聽著這首歌，彷彿能看見那台在州際公路上奔馳的廂型車，載著滿滿的困惑與不羈。這不是那種過度包裝的敘事，而是真實反映了當公眾形象與個人本質產生拉扯時，那種既荒謬又真實的矛盾。在深夜開車或是需要一點節奏感來提神的時候，這首作品那種帶點舊時代復古感的律動，總能讓人會心一笑，畢竟誰沒有過被外界誤解，卻又懶得解釋的時候呢？
歌曲冷知識
・歌詞以公路旅行為結構，串聯沙加緬度、洛杉磯、休士頓與堪薩斯城，生動呈現饒舌歌手巡演途中的奔波與社交困境。
・透過「背影如凱迪拉克」與「像鯊魚般潛行」等生動比喻，具體描繪了歌手在各城市尋找對象時的獨特視角。
・歌詞深刻探討了饒舌歌手的標籤化問題，強調「饒舌是風格而非幫派」，呈現出公眾刻板印象對個人生活造成的無奈與阻礙。
・結尾以饒舌歌手的「職業屬性」自我解嘲，將花言巧語定義為工作內容，巧妙呼應了歌名中關於名聲的雙重含義。
