Triple Double
Girl Talk Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Face down, ass up!
The top of your booty jiggling out your jeans,
Baby pull your pants up,
I like it when i see you do it,
Better then i ever seen it done before,
A lot of women drop it to the ground,
But how low can you go?
Never would’ve imagined did not even in her right mind,
Practice in front of that mirror,
Now you doing it on the dance floor,
Mad cause i can’t get wit ya ya just show me how to dance (OH!)
I may not wanna get low so i post it up kinda like a playa do,
But if you come to the crib,
Then i might show you girls a thang or 2,
Yea i think you a superstar wit a ass like that you gotta blow,
Before you make it big,
Theres just 1 thing i gotta know
Just wakin up in the mornin gotta thank God
I don't know but today seems kinda odd
No barkin from the dog, no smog
And momma cooked a breakfast with no hog (damn)
I got my grub on, but didn't pig out
Finally got a call from a girl I wanna dig out
(Whassup?) Hooked it up for later as I hit the do'
Thinkin will I live, another twenty-fo'
I gotta go cause I got me a drop top
And if I hit the switch, I can make the ass drop
Had to stop, at a red light
Lookin in my mirror and not a jacker in sight
And everything is alright
I got a beep from Kim, and she can fuck all night
Called up the homies and I'm askin y'all
Which park, are y'all playin basketball?
Get me on the court and I'm trouble
Last week fucked around and got a triple double
Freakin niggaz everyway like M.J.
I can't believe, today was a good day (shit!)
The first part of the lyrics describes a woman who can dance extremely well, even better than the singer has seen before. He comments on how many women "drop it to the ground," but the woman described in the lyrics goes even lower than that. The singer seems to be impressed by her dancing skills and wants her to teach him how to dance like her. However, while he may not be the best dancer himself, he boasts about being able to show the woman a few things at his house. The second part of the lyrics, which comes from a different song, describes the singer's seemingly perfect day. He wakes up to a beautiful morning, enjoys a breakfast cooked by his mother, and receives a call from a girl he wants to meet later. He drives around in his drop top car, enjoying the day, and catching the attention of the ladies. He arranges to play basketball with his friends and ends up impressing them by making a triple double. The lyrics describe the day as "a good day," highlighting the small joys in life.
Overall, the song Triple Double is an upbeat and catchy tune that combines two different songs into one. The first half of the lyrics is from Girl Talk's own song and focuses on a woman's dancing, while the second half is a sample from Ice Cube's song It Was a Good Day, which describes a perfect day. Interestingly, the song does not have a music video, which was a conscious decision on the part of Girl Talk, who wanted to let listeners interpret the song in their own ways. Additionally, the song has been used in various commercials, including for Bacardi and the video game NBA 2K14. Finally, Triple Double was included in Rolling Stone's list of the 100 Best Songs of 2010.
Chords:
Unfortunately, due to the nature of the song (samples from other songs), there may not be an official chord progression available.
Line by Line Meaning
She could go lower than i ever really thought she could,
She can contort her body in ways I never thought possible
Face down, ass up!
Bent over with her butt in the air
The top of your booty jiggling out your jeans,
The upper part of her butt is bouncing out of her tight pants
Baby pull your pants up,
She needs to wear higher waisted pants to avoid showing too much skin
I like it when i see you do it,
I enjoy watching her dance in this way
Better then i ever seen it done before,
Her dancing skills are more impressive than I've seen before
A lot of women drop it to the ground,
Many women dance by dropping low to the ground
But how low can you go?
How much lower can she dance?
Lower then your mama’s ever seen it in her life time,
Even her mother could not have imagined someone dancing lower than this
Never would’ve imagined did not even in her right mind,
It's so extreme that not even her own imagination could have come up with this
Practice in front of that mirror,
She needs to practice in front of a mirror to perfect her moves
Now you doing it on the dance floor,
The practicing has now paid off and she can dance this way in public
Mad cause i can’t get wit ya ya just show me how to dance (OH!)
I am envious of her dancing and want to learn how to do it myself
I may not wanna get low so i post it up kinda like a playa do,
I'm not comfortable dancing this way so I stand around like a player
But if you come to the crib,
If you come back to my house
Then i might show you girls a thang or 2,
I might be willing to show you a few things
Yea i think you a superstar wit a ass like that you gotta blow,
You have a great butt and I think you have the potential to become famous
Before you make it big,
Before you become famous
Theres just 1 thing i gotta know
I have one thing that I need to ask
Just wakin up in the mornin gotta thank God
I'm grateful to be waking up this morning
I don't know but today seems kinda odd
Today feels different for some reason
No barkin from the dog, no smog
There's no barking from the dog and no air pollution outside
And momma cooked a breakfast with no hog (damn)
My mother made breakfast without using any pork, which is surprising
I got my grub on, but didn't pig out
I ate my fill of breakfast but didn't overeat
Finally got a call from a girl I wanna dig out (Whassup?)
I finally received a call from a girl I want to have sex with
Hooked it up for later as I hit the do'
We made plans to meet up later while I left the house
Thinkin will I live, another twenty-fo'
Wondering if I will survive another day
I gotta go cause I got me a drop top
I have to leave because I have a convertible
And if I hit the switch, I can make the ass drop
If I press a button, the car's rear end will lower
Had to stop, at a red light
Had to come to a stop at a red traffic light
Lookin in my mirror and not a jacker in sight
Looking in the rearview mirror and there are no thieves around
And everything is alright
Things are going well
I got a beep from Kim, and she can fuck all night
Received a message from a woman named Kim who is interested in having sex for an extended period of time
Called up the homies and I'm askin y'all
Called my friends and asked them
Which park, are y'all playin basketball?
Which basketball court are you playing at?
Get me on the court and I'm trouble
If I'm on the basketball court, I am a troublemaker
Last week fucked around and got a triple double
I had an excellent performance in basketball, getting a triple double
Freakin niggaz everyway like M.J.
Like Michael Jordan, I'm dominating and confusing my opponents
I can't believe, today was a good day (shit!)
I am shocked that today turned out to be a good day

@olliezoop
Man, this album makes me feel so nostalgic, wish this dude would come back and bless us with another album
@patrickwingard1927
I hope when he gets tired of his career he'll come back and make us a new mix. Legend.
@colasrtney
What is he doing now?
@kimberlykendall
What career are we hoping it gets tired of?
@patrickwingard1927
@@kimberlykendall Not entirely sure what he's doing now, but I know he quit making his mashups to study engineering.
@henotin65
@@kimberlykendall He is still producing music, trap music to be exact
@LimboTheory
He has career. Making beautiful music
@frididjurhuus
That's why I love mash ups. They take something you can't stand, and then turn it into something beautiful.
@Tallboyjonesinc
There are parts of these that are absolute genius. Like 1901 and How Low? PERFECT. Talent.
@dekaywood
I used to run to this album all the time and when this song comes on it always gave me a boost
