Ass ass ass ass ass
Ass ass ass ass ass
Ass ass ass ass ass
Stop! Now make that motherfucker hammer time like'

Wobble-dy wobble-dy wa wobble wobble
I'm st-stacking my paper my wallet look like a Bible
I got girlies half naked that shit look like the grotto
How your waist anorexic and then your ass is colossal
Drop that ass make it boomerang
Take my belt off, bitch I'm Pootie Tang
Tippy tow tippy tay you gonna get a tip today
Fuck that you gonna get some dick today
I walk in with my crew and I'm breaking they necks
I'm looking all good I'm making her wet
They pay me respect they pay me in checks
And if she look good she pay me in sex
Bounce that ass (ass) it's the roundest
You the best you deserve a crown bitch
Right on that,

Ass ass ass ass ass
Ass ass ass ass ass
Ass ass ass ass ass
Stop! Now make that motherfucker hammer time like'

Go dumb, go stupid, go stupid

Wobbledy wobble, wo-wo-wobble, wobbin'
Ass so fat, all these bitches' pussies is throbbin'
Bad bitches, I'm your leader, Phantom by the meter
Somebody point me to the best ass-eater
Tell 'em "pussy clean!" I tell 'em "pussy squeaky!"
Niggas give me brain 'cause all of them niggas geeky
If he got a mandingo, then I buy him a dashiki
And bust this pussy open in the islands of Waikikiiiiii'
Kiss my ass and my anus, 'cause it's finally famous
And it's finally soft, yeah, it's finally solved!
I don't know, man, guess them ass shots were off!
Bitches ain't poppin', Google, my ass
Only time you on the net is when you Google my ass
Y-y-you fuckin' little whores, fu-fuckin' up my decors
Couldn't get Michael Kors if you was fuckin' Michael Kors
B-B-Big Sean, b-boy, how big is you?
Gimme all yo' money and gimme all yo' residuals
Then slap it on my ass, ass, ass'

Ass ass ass ass ass
Ass ass ass ass ass
Ass ass ass ass ass
Stop! Now make that motherfucker hammer time like'

Woah, white girls, black girls, tall girls, fat girls
Shake that ass girl, shake that ass girl, shake that ass girl, shake that ass girl

Short girls, small girls, skinny girls, all girls
Shake that ass girl, shake that ass girl, shake that ass girl, shake that ass girl

And I want all of that,

Ass ass ass ass ass
Ass ass ass ass ass
Ass ass ass ass ass
Stop! Now make that motherfucker hammer time like'

Go dumb, go stupid, go stupid, go stupid





Go stupid!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song 'Dance' by Big Sean highlight the rapperโ€™s obsession with female bodies and their ability to dance. The repetitive use of the word โ€œass" in the chorus and throughout the song suggests that the artist is objectifying women and reducing them to nothing more than their physical attributes. The verse where he talks about having girlies half-naked, as if they are mere objects of pleasure, adds to the misogyny of the lyrics.


However, as the song progresses, it also becomes apparent that Big Sean is aware of his problematic attitudes towards women. He describes himself as a โ€œbad boyโ€ who is all about shaking that ass and having fun, but also conveys that he treats the women with respect and pays them well for their work. It portrays an ironic situation where the artist knows the negative message he is sending out but does not attempt to change it. The song can be seen as a reflection of the societal attitudes towards women and how male artists exploit that to gain popularity.


Overall, "Dance" is a song that is catchy, upbeat, and has a clear message. However, the message it portrays towards women can be considered problematic and highlights the wider issue of female objectification within the music industry.

I swear when Nicki debuted, music changed forever, she made my childhood so fun and amazing. Iโ€™m so glad Wayne gave her a chance

Music is always changing. Its not because of one artist. Maybe she changed rap, but not music as a whole.
