Fat Girl
Eazy E & Ron-de-vu Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(You're a fat girl)
(Fat... fat... fat fat fat fat girl) (repeat 2X)
(It's funky fresh Eazy E) new kid on tha block
And already got a fat girl on my jock
Now my story's kinda simple so please take it simple
As I tell you a tale bout this big fat pimple
Saw a fatty comin my way so what was I to do?
I busted a U went tha other way again
But forgot that tha Avenue was a dead end
I turned around, here she came, stride for stride
Funky fat like that, bout two thirty-five
Stampede was rushin, I double looked
And she had more chins than a chinese phonebook
Five four three ugly as can be, she said
(Ron-de-vu)
Hello Eazy E. Do you remember me? (I said no)
Huhu yes you do suga
My name is Bertha but you can call me booga
Remember the time when you were drunk at a party
We was slow dancin, give ya all this body
(Eazy-E)
When she said that she loved me, I was in shock
Oh my God got a fat girl on my jock
(CHORUS:)
(I got a fat girl on my jock) (Fat girl) (Got a fat girl on my jock)
She gave me tha grin, I showed tha frown
And with a bare hug picked me off tha ground
Squeezion me tight, atttempted to bug me
Grabbed me by tha rear, said (Love me, hug me!)
I was hell, victim of a scandal
Coz this girl's too much for E to handle
Broke tha bee's grip, started to run
Back to tha crib, grabbed tha elephant gun
She's grubbin, thighs rubbin in a hot pursuit
I loaded up tha gun bout ready to shoot
She kept on comin because of addiction
Legs on fire because of friction
My gun broke, now I was doomed
Dropped tha double barrel, grabbed tha harpoon
As I swung, tha fat girl fell
Lyin on tha ave just like a beach whale
That's tha story, it's quite ill
And all fat girls y'all besta chill
All overweight freaks stay off my block
Cause it's eerie to have a fat girl on your jock
(CHORUS)
The song "Fat Girl" by Eazy E and Ron-de-vu is a raunchy and humorous account of an encounter with a large woman. The song begins with Eazy E boasting as a new kid on the block, but his swagger is quickly challenged when he encounters a very overweight woman who he tries to avoid but ultimately cannot escape. Ron-de-vu jumps in with a spoken-word interlude, claiming to have slow-danced with Eazy E at a party in the past. The chorus repeats the line "I got a fat girl on my jock" multiple times, both as a form of bragging and an admission of defeat.
The song is a reflection of the misogyny and fatphobia that have been normalized in much of hip hop culture. Eazy E's lyrics refer to the woman as a "big fat pimple" and a "Chinese phonebook," reducing her to her weight and appearance. He also describes her as an unwelcome presence, referring to her as a "victim of a scandal" and warning other overweight women to stay off his block. However, the song also serves as a critique of toxic masculinity and the performative nature of bragging within the hip hop industry, with Eazy E's bravado ultimately being overshadowed by his failure to escape the woman's advances.

The D.O.C was one half of the “fila fresh crew”! If you listen on the song “ Toughest Man Alive” , at 1:20...he says “you see the DOC And all the fila I be splurging,...then goes on to say “ I’m an annihilator, standing a full 6’3... that’s how tall he is... just a lil history lesson... and that’s him in the very front with the green hat on. He wrote like half the songs but his name is not listed on the album cover..
