Dirty Girl
Felt Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Slug]
I love you like a rap kid loves breaks

(chorus) [slug]
Dirty, dirty, you're such a dirty girl yeah
Dirty, dirty, you're such a dirty girl yeah
Dirty, dirty, you're such a dirty girl yeah
Dirty, dirty, you're such a dirty girl yeah

Came to get an oil-change for my girlfriends car
But by the time I left I was short of breath and brokenhearted (there she was)
There she was, bent over a motor,
Dirty cap with a pony tail that sat between her shoulders (beautiful)
With an oil streak that must have kissed your cheekbone
Thick and voluptuous I wish that we could be alone (I would love to)
I would love to, touch you, rub you,
See whats covered up under that greasy blue jumpsuit (come on)
Standin there holding that drippin dipstick,
With a firm grip, yet so delicate
And the way you took that orange oil rag and wiped it clean
Is guaranteed to get repeated in my dreams
You make me wild feels like puppy love
Got so lost in your smile when you asked me what the mileage was
And if I ever learned how to change my own oil
Promise you this customer is gonna remain so loyal (dirty girl)

(chorus) [slug]
Dirty, dirty, you're such a dirty girl yeah
Dirty, dirty, you're such a dirty girl yeah
Dirty, dirty, you're such a dirty girl yeah
Dirty, dirty, you're such a dirty girl yeah

[Murs]
Now there's this hamburger stand thirty minutes out of town
Used to go for the best veggie burgers around
That was until I met this brown guaranteed to astound
Short order chef eyes deeper than sound
She wore a dirty green apron like a silk nightgown
Them cappuccino fingernails wrote my order down
Three dots tattooed between her thumb and her index
Twenty-four waist held the holster for the windex
Heat from the grill made her mascara drip
The sweat on her face showed the fuzz on her lip
Them work pants couldn't hide the love in them hips
Call it bad taste but this girl was the shit
Its the way that hair net kinda covered up her ear
Had me askin why the fuck she was even workin here
But next time I get hungry I'ma drive to Pasadena
Cuz I just gotta see her
melinda,
cocina

(chorus) [slug]
Dirty, dirty, you're such a dirty girl yeah
Dirty, dirty, you're such a dirty girl yeah
Dirty, dirty, you're such a dirty girl yeah
Dirty, dirty, you're such a dirty girl yeah




Dirty, dirty, you're such a dirty girl yeah
Dirty, dirty, you're such a dirty girl yeah

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Felt's "Dirty Girl" are about the sexual attraction that the two rappers feel towards blue-collar women they encounter in their daily lives. Slug finds himself falling in love with a mechanic while getting his girlfriend's car serviced. He describes her in detail, noticing her oil-streaked skin and voluptuous curves. He is mesmerized by her firm yet delicate grip on the dipstick and is aroused by the thought of what she might be hiding under her jumpsuit. Murs, on the other hand, is smitten by a short-order cook at a hamburger stand. He is captivated by her deep eyes, sweat-drenched face, and the love in her hips that her work pants can't quite hide. He acknowledges that his attraction might be considered "bad taste" but can't help the fact that to him, she is "the shit."


The chorus, which repeated throughout the song, emphasizes that these women are dirty in a sexual way. The repeated use of the word "dirty" combined with the descriptions of their physical appearance and the rappers' desires for them create a vivid picture of their lust. The fact that the women are doing manual labor - getting greasy, sweating, and wearing work clothes - adds to their sexual appeal in the eyes of the rappers.


Overall, "Dirty Girl" is a testament to the primal and often overlooked sexuality that can be found in mundane, everyday settings. The rappers' attraction to these women is not based on their looks or social status but on their raw physical presence and the allure of their dirty work.
