Queen Mariah is receiving praise left and right for her pithy lyrics in her latest release, “Infinity,” but true fans know Mariah’s been throwing down poignant tracks for years.
That time she effortlessly shooed away the haters on "Migrate."
Lyrics: “As we proceed getting buzzed,
The envious ones,
Hatin' but they can't take they eyes off us,
But we don't see none of that,
They playin' my jam,
And the floor is packed,
So ya'll need to migrate up out the door.”
Album: Memoirs of An Imperfect Angel

That time she totally used Gmail to start some shit on "Up Out My Face."
Lyrics: “You ain't never gonna feel this thing again
You gon' get a lot of calls
Cause I CC-ed at your friends.”

That time she brought back your favorite '90s scent on "Shake It Off."
Lyrics: “I gotta shake it off
Just like the Calgon commercial
I really gotta get up outta here
And go somewhere”

That time she painted you a vivid picture of her insomnia with "We Belong Together."
Lyrics: “I can't sleep at night
When you are on my mind
Bobby Womack's on the radio
Saying to me
"If you think you're lonely now"
Wait a minute
This is too deep (too deep)
I gotta change the station
So I turn the dial
Trying to catch a break
And then I hear Babyface
I only think of you
And it's breaking my heart
I'm trying to keep it together
But I'm falling apart”
