Déjà vu
Crazy Town Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It happened down in the valley where the green grass grows..
I know this ain't the ocean, she likes to take of her clothes.
Her first name is Deja, her stage name was Rita!
She worked the nightshift at the pussycat theatre!
I brought her round the hood, my homies asked me where cha meet her
Said a movie at the hood, picked her up cause I could
Should of known her fine ass was up to no good.
While I was blinded by the fad..
Lil Deja was stacked, to be exact, she got molled back in a Cadillac.
Only 17, but she looked around 20.
Try to tell me I'm the one, I said I'm one of the many
I said Deja vu what are you trying to do?
You think spreading your legs will make your dreams come true!

Everybody loves you
at least for a day or two
I think I use to fuck you
this is just like Deja vu
and if you give me your number, honey
I'll put you with the other bunny's
it's true
miss Deja vu! x3

Another good gurl gone bad
another one bites the dust
She's on dust and needs rehab
the pick of the litter till the whole city hit her
the cream of the crop until she couldn't stop
The kinda gurl you like a lot till you get to know her
always talking about the people she knows
and how the world owes her..
This lady is just a poser, the perfect example of over exposure
Do you like what you see, well then you need to look closer
Girl I know where ya've been and you'll never be a my girl again
Could of have it all but you took a short cut
could of had the world but you end up a slut
It hurts when I have to think of all the people you have fucked
you could of slowed your own, but no, you had to push your luck
running your luck got ya looking like a duck
Young, dumb and immature..ain't no future when you're fucking
Tried to bet it all, fucked them all
But you ended up with nothing
Using sex as a weapon to get what she wants
Like a smith and wesson and she's the flavour of the month
Well it's time to, baby bump and grind like a sex crime

Fuck that shit, bring in the chorus
Everybody loves you
at least for a day or two
I think I use to fuck you
this is just like Deja vu
and if you give me your number, honey
I'll put you with the other bunny's
it's true
miss Deja who? x3

Everybody loves you
at least for a day or two
I think I use to fuck you
this is just like Deja vu
and if you give your number honey
I'll put you with the other bunny's




it's true
miss Deja vu

Overall Meaning

The song "Deja Vu" by Crazy Town speaks about a woman, named Deja, who works at the Pussycat Theater and is known for taking off her clothes. The singer of the song is intrigued by her and takes her around his neighborhood, but he begins to realize that she's "up to no good." He tries to warn her that spreading her legs won't help her achieve her dreams and that she's using sex as a weapon to get what she wants. However, she's too far gone and ends up becoming a "poser," using her looks to get ahead in life until she falls too far down the rabbit hole of drugs and sex.


The song is a commentary on the dangers of using one's physical appearance to get what they want in life. The singer sees through the façade of Deja's beauty and realizes that she's ultimately hurting herself by using sex as a means of advancement. He tries to warn her of the perils of this lifestyle, but ultimately she continues down the same path and becomes a victim of it.
