I don't get these lines from NA

Postby dR3 » May 6th, '10, 22:56

Sorry for the ignorance but.. yeah...

haters can make like bees with no stingers, and drop dead
Why is "make" there? It doesn't make sense to me.

and

he’s married to the game, like a f-ck you for Christmas
His gift is a curse

Like a fuck you for Christmas? I'm confused.



Thanks in advance.

It's just the way he's saying it.

As for the second question, maybe this will make more sense
He's married to the game
Like a fuck you for Christmas, his gift is a curse

The game line is irrelevant. I don't know if you celebrate the holiday, but gifts are traditionally exchanged on Xmas, and 'fuck' is considered a curse word in most English-speaking societies.

I hope this helped.

It's a figure of speech. Kind of like "Let's make like a banana and split". Or...let's make like a Drummer and beat it. It's synonymous with "act" in this case.

"make like" means "imitate".
Example: "The milk snake uses its colors to make like a coral snake and fool predators."

IMO he means fuck you is a curse word and basically if you said fuck you to sombody on xmas your gift would be a curse, and in his eyes his gift of rapping is a curse

Using a pun as a literary example only leads to more confusion.
