Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Notice you, noticin' me
From across the room, I can see it
And can't stop myself from lookin'
And noticin' you, noticin' me
Watch out, I've seen her type before
That girl is so dangerous
That girl is so dangerous
I've seen her type before
She's so dangerous
That girl is so dangerous
That girl is a bad girl, yeah
Whoa! And yeah, that's her
The big dog tryna get her little kitty to purr
Ex-man lookin' at me like I'm Lucifer
'Cause he knows I will deal with the case, yes sir
If I was the last man on Earth
I would only take that girl, end of search
She give a new definition to the word curve
Got chicks in the strip club envyin' her
Body's like weapons of mass eruptions
Sit a glass on that fat obstruction
Tongue game give a new type seduction
I'm tryna give that girl somethin', Jah
Girl, I can't notice but to
Notice you, noticin' me
From across the room, I can see it
And can't stop myself from lookin'
And noticin' you, noticin' me
Watch out, I've seen her type before
That girl is so dangerous
That girl is so dangerous
That girl is a bad girl
I've seen her type before
She's so dangerous
That girl is so dangerous
That girl is a bad girl, yeah
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Whoa! Bad to the bone
Everything locked like a two-three zone
I wanted to make my black snake moan
Talk a likkle bit, then take that home (word)
She bad and she know the deal
That sweater can't hide what she wanna conceal
I mean, Meagan Good and Halle Berry
Put together, ain't close to the dribby I see
No, no, no disrespect
But this gyal deh pon another level, cut the check (uh)
Tell King mag, stop the press
Say K, can I get a witness?
Girl, I can't notice but to
Notice you, noticin' me
From across the room, I can see it
And can't stop myself from lookin'
And noticin' you, noticin' me
Watch out, I've seen her type before
That girl is so dangerous
That girl is so dangerous
That girl is a bad girl
I've seen her type before
She's so dangerous
That girl is so dangerous
That girl is a bad girl, yeah
I see you got that fire
By the way that you're walkin' (walkin')
From left to right I watched her go down
Girl, I just want it right now
Don't wanna do no talkin' (talkin')
Shorty's so right I need to slow down
Figure eight, good body shape (yeah)
When she on the dance floor, gyal dem irate
When she do her ting, man can't walk straight
That biscuit fi soak up everyting' on her plate
Bad heels like Jessica P
I'm tryna give homegirl Sex in the City-titty
Itty bitty waistline, moves with the baseline
One likkle punch, I'm fine, Jah
Girl, I can't notice but to
Notice you, noticin' me
From across the room, I can see it
And can't stop myself from lookin'
And noticin' you, noticin' me
Watch out, I've seen her type before
That girl is so dangerous
That girl is so dangerous
That girl is a bad girl
I've seen her type before
She's so dangerous
That girl is so dangerous
That girl is a bad girl, yeah
The song Dangerous by Akon (ft. Kardinal Offishall) is an ode to a dangerous woman who has caught the eye of the singer from across the room. He admits that he cannot help but notice her observing him too. He acknowledges that he has seen her type before and that she is a bad girl, yet he cannot resist her charms. The second verse sees Kardinal Offishall chiming in, describing how he is the big dog trying to get her little kitty to purr. He notes that her ex-man is looking at him like he is Lucifer because he knows that Kardinal Offishall will deal with the case. The bridge talks about how the woman is so dangerous, from her body that is like weapons of mass eruptions to her seductive tongue game. She is compared to the likes of Meagan Good and Halle Berry put together. The chorus repeats throughout the song, emphasizing the dangerous nature of the woman.

It describes a woman who is aware of her sexuality and confident in her abilities to attract any man she desires. This song celebrates the beauty and power of a woman who knows her worth and is proud of it. It also acknowledges the risks that come with such women and how they can be a source of trouble to men who cannot control themselves.
