There's some things you gotta know

Fish tank this thing along with four more shots
Of Patron I give a fuck about going home

The lyrics to Cataracs & Dev's song "Bass Down Low" describe what the singer is looking for in a partner. She likes her music fast and with a heavy bass, and if someone wants to be with her, they need to know that about her. The lyrics use a lot of slang and informal language, suggesting a party atmosphere where people are drinking and dancing. The singer also asserts her sexuality, implying that she is looking for a physical relationship with someone who can keep up with her energetic lifestyle.
The song is a prime example of the electro-pop style, which mixes electronic dance music with pop-style vocals. It was released in 2010 and was a commercial success, reaching the top 10 of the US Billboard Dance chart. The song has been remixed and covered by several other artists, and its catchy chorus and dance-floor beat remain popular.
