[Akon]
3, 2, 1 now put your hands in the air, shake your body down slow
Hold it, bring it, bring it back like you never did it before
Keep your hands in the air while you're dropping down low
Let me see you work it out, like a stripper on a pole, pole

Ok, if you came to party tonight, I need yo all to get yo all drinks in the air

Sexy beautiful lady won't you bring it right back,... lady you're my boomerang, boomerang

Overall Meaning

The song “Boomerang” by Akon, Pitbull and Jermaine Dupri is a club banger that encourages people to let loose and have fun on the dance floor. The first verse starts with a countdown and asks people to put their hands in the air and shake their bodies down slow. Akon tells people to bring it back like they’ve never done it before, challenging them to try something new. The chorus encourages women to dance on stage like a stripper on a pole and bring their bodies back to him like a boomerang. Pitbull comes in for the second verse and adds his signature Latin flavor to the song. He talks about wanting to have sex with a woman with a big behind and compares it to an umpa lumpa. Despite the provocative lyrics, the song is ultimately about having a good time and enjoying the music.

The third verse by Jermaine Dupri addresses the lack of dancing in clubs and how people are no longer able to let loose and have fun. He encourages people to dance like they don’t care and not worry about being judged. He talks about how people are too serious and need to let go and just dance. The song ends with a repeat of the chorus and an invitation for people to shake their bodies like they’re dancing on a pole.
