“GTFO” is a song produced by Mariah Carey and Nineteen85 that was included on her fourteenth studio album, Caution. The song, which samples Porter Robinson's “Goodbye To A World,” was made available on September 13, 2018, before the album's release. “I wanted to give my fans and everyone a first listen that wasn't so serious,” Mariah said in a press release. “I've had so much fun making this album, and I wanted the first moment to reflect that light-hearted spirit.”
Mariah worked with director Sarah McColgan for the first time on the “GTFO” music video, which made its debut on September 14, 2018.
How 'bout you
How 'bout you
You took my love for granted
You left me lost and disenchanted
Bulldozed my heart as if you planned it
My prince was so unjustly handsome
Who was a knight in shining armor
I could have sworn you'd love me harder
Might as well down this Caymus bottle
I ain't the type to play the martyr
How 'bout you get the fuck out
How 'bout you get the fuck out
Get the fuck out
How 'bout you take your tings and be on your merry way
Fly off with the wind, bye bye baby
Scusa mi Mimi call you a valet
Take your tings and be on your merry way
My friends all saw it in your eyes
They told me once, they told me twice
I looked beyond all the signs
I guess false love makes you blind
Who was a knight in shining armor
I could have sworn you'd love me harder
Might as well down this Caymus bottle
I ain't the type to play the martyr
How 'bout you get the fuck out
How 'bout you get the fuck out
Get the fuck out
How 'bout you take your tings and be on your merry way
Fly off with the wind, bye bye baby
Scusa mi Mimi call you a valet
Take your tings and be on your merry way
How 'bout you get the fuck out
How 'bout you get the fuck out
(Fuck out, fuck out)
(Stop tellin' me these lies when you're bluffin')
How 'bout you get the fuck out
(Go stay at your friend's house or something)
(Don't mean to be rude, but take your shit and leave)
How 'bout you
(Go stay at your friend's house or something)
How 'bout you
(Go stay with your homeboys you was talkin' to)
How 'bout you
(I ain't trying to be rude, but you're lucky)
How 'bout you get the fuck out
(I ain't kick your ass out last weekend)
