* Svenja (born November 1984)
* Lotte (born May 1984)
* Lindsy (born November 1983)

Lindsy is described as a helpful little girl, sometimes timid, one of her favourite activities is chatting on the phone. Lotte is said to be open-minded and honest, and she loves animals. Svenja is sporty, she also loves dancing and shopping.

The three girls met in a dancing school in Eindhoven where their dancing skills were discovered by Platenproducer who signed them up for their first single Hide and Seek under the Djumbo Project. Their 2 first singles entered top 5 in their homeland and they succeeded, in less than 6 months, to become one of the most popular pop groups there.

Djumbo's style fits into the eurodance and bubblegum dance categories, although some of their songs are more pop-based. Their sound is quite similar to Ch!pz, who are also based in the Netherlands, and Swedish dance group Smile.dk. Both have the fun bouncy 'childish' style that make it popular amongst children.

The lyrics of most Djumbo songs are written in a combination of English and Dutch, with the majority of the song being in Dutch and the chorus (and title) being in English.

Djumbo Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Freeze!

Refrein:
Undercover
Gonna take you in
Bad boys and criminals
We are gonna win
Undercover

All around the world
From Bambay China to LA

Dreigt er gevaar
Undercovergirls staan klaar
We komen erop af
Nee niks is ons te zwaar

We kijken dwars door muren
We schakelen je uit
Zo helpen we de wereld
Zo redden we de buit

Freeze! You're busted
Je bent er gloeiend bij
Geef je nu over
Jij gaat mee met mij

Refrein

Hands up! Hoe ha.
Hands up! Hoe ha.
Freeze!
We lezen je gedachten
Dus denk maar niet te veel - Nee!
Als je dan toch doorgaat
Laten wij niks van je heel-NIx!

We sluipen over straten
We pakken je altijd Yeah!
Als we undercover gaan
Dan winnen we de strijd - Wauw!

Freeze! You're busted
Je bent er gloeiend bij
Geef je nu over
Jij gaat mee met mij

Hands up! Hoe ha.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Djumbo's song Undercover depict the adventures of the crime-fighting squad, the undercover girls, who lay the smack down on bad boys and criminals from Bombay China to LA. The song urges the listener repeatedly to "freeze," a command that orders the bad guys not to move as the "undercover girls stand ready" to strike. The chorus proclaims the fearless girl squad's gonna "win," which makes them seem invincible. They can see through walls and have the power to read people's thoughts. The undercover girls work together, closing in and disarming the criminals they encounter. The song gives off the message that doing good always wins over doing wrong, and the intrepid undercover girls are ready to take on any perpetrator who comes their way.

The lyrics capture the bravery and determination of the "undercover girls," elements that make this feel-good anthem an inspiration for female empowerment. The notion of a girl-power squad taking on evil is not merely the stuff of the fictional superhero variety; it represents an emerging trend of women stepping into roles traditionally assigned to men. The song sends a message that it is possible for girls to be just as strong, fearless, and skilled as boys when called upon to take on villains.
