Lyrics. . . What Do They Mean?

MeezDiscreet · #1 01-05-2002, 03:50 AM

you know, there are a lot of songs that i like but i sure do want to ask the artist or songwriter why they threw THAT line in there. for instance...

i want to ask keith sweat in what language does "shooby dooby dooby doo wop" mean "i love you?"

and do ya'll remember the first song that destiny's child released, "no, no, no?" i believe it is in the second verse where beyonce sings "you never had a girl like I."

what in the world??!! kinda like lil bow wow's new song, "thank you," when he says "if you ride for we, i'm gone ride for you," when referring to his so so def fam. those are two of the most grammatically incorrect and ignant lines!

and, i was sho and the nuff jamming "feeling on yo' booty," but the title alone is pure craziness!!

anybody feelin me?

Girl! I am always LMAO at you!

I was trippin off "Thank You" too. Not only the "ride for we" but when he bust out with "FISH! Cause that's my favorite dish!" I was like whaaaa?

maybe i'm missing something in the song, but does bow wow ever specify what needs to be represented? all i hear is "represent that..." REPRESENT WHAT LIL BOY????

Actually, he stole that from Rakim, I think it was from "Paid in Full."

Yeah that is from Paid in Full my boyfriend and I were listening to that song and we were like Lil Bow Wow needs to be original especially when thanking someone.

LMAO, You almost made me spit out my juice. I never thought about it quite like that. To answer your question, no I don't think he specifies what is being represented.

You know what irritates me? The song with Wyclef and Claudette. Don't get me wrong I love the song but at the end when Wyclef says "I won't stay on the block no more I'll come home early girl I promise." The first time I heard I was like WTF. I was really grooving to the song and then he barks that line and my groove is over. I just think he could have left that part out.

They still have me scratching my head with " Can you pay my automo bills?" It seems like at least one of those girls would have noticed something like that.

in the song that lil bow wow says "represent that" he says it cause that funny background voice is saying "so so def, so so def"
then he says represent that.

My nomination of The most irritating lyrics of the summer goes tonon other than..... Truth Hurts ...... "you're so contagious, you turn my pages" What is THAT ?

Slammin beat..but whack lyrics. She should've thought that line out a little bit longer.

She's saying, "He's so contagious, returns my pages." That makes sense... but I was actually disappointed b/c I kinda liked the idea of somebody turning my pages, lol. One of my friends still insists on singing it wrong anyway.
