Dear Teachers,

1. Gotta keep it down honey lay your back on the line. �Cause I don�t care about the money, don�t be wasting my time. You need less speed, get off my case. You gotta slow it down baby, just get out of my face.

- What does �get off my case� mean here? And �get out of my face� here means �get away from me�, right?

Thanks a lot to Teachers,

Stevenukd

"Get off my case" is a way to say, "Quite bothering me, leave me alone."

"Get out of my face" is similar. It means, "Quit nagging me, stay away from me."
