Don't Touch That
Group X Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't touch that
Can't have it
Hands off
Schmy schmy schmy schmy
Music did me so good
Made me say Oh my God
A two hip rhyme and two hop feet
It feel good and I dont know what
But that's my hot dog and you can't touch
So get your hands off and you know what
That's my hot dog, can't touch
Can't touch that
Hands off
Get away...bitch
Every time you see me, Hashmeer is in trouble
I like to chew gum and I like to blow a bubble
One time I blew a bubble so big
Inside of the bubble was a little kid
Little kid come out and he says to me "Schwat?"
I said get your hands off my hot dog
That is something can't touch
Don't touch that
Can't have it
Hands off
Put it down
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Go Hashmeer go, go Hashmeer go
Go Hashmeer go, go Hashmeer go
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Go Hashmeer go, go Hashmeer go
Go Hashmeer go, go Hash-STOP!
Hashmeer time
Say what
When I get tired I like to take a nap
And you say Gröûp X steals a beat and that's bunch of crap
Why would we ever stop doing that cause
'Cause Puff Daddy do it except he cannot rap
Been around the world from Chicago to Yew Nork
It's Hashmeer go, Hashmeer go, Hashmeer go, Hashmeer
And the rest can go away, schwhat
Don't touch that
Can't have it
I bomb your house, idiot
Go to town
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Go Hashmeer go, go Hashmeer go
Go Hashmeer go, go Hashmeer go
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Go Hashmeer go, go Hashmeer go
Go Hash-STOP!
Idiot
The lyrics to Group X's "Don't Touch That" seem at first glance to be nothing more than a nonsensical refrain of "don't touch that, can't have it, hands off." However, upon closer examination, it becomes apparent that there is more to the song than just those few phrases. The song begins with the singer alluding to the power of music - it has done them good and made them say "oh my God." They go on to thank whoever is responsible for giving them "a two hip rhyme and two hop feet," which feels good though they don't know exactly why. Then the real message of the song emerges: "that's my hot dog and you can't touch." The phrase is repeated several times throughout the song, interspersed with rambling verse about Hashmeer getting into trouble, blowing a giant bubble with a kid inside, and a reference to Puff Daddy. But the hot dog refrain remains the same throughout and serves as the anchor for the song's message. It seems to be a metaphor for something - perhaps a personal belonging or even a basic human right - that the singer is fiercely protective of.
The strong emphasis on the phrase "hands off" and the occasional use of expletives quickly establish a confrontational tone to the song. The lines "every time you see me, Hashmeer is in trouble" and "I bomb your house, idiot" only add to the aggressive nature of the lyrics. It's not entirely clear who the singer is addressing, but they are insistent that this thing they're talking about is off limits and shouldn't be messed with.
The song seems to be a commentary on the idea of ownership and the lengths people will go to protect what they consider to be their own. The repeated refrain and the harsh language used throughout the song convey a sense of protectiveness and even possessiveness over this thing the singer is referring to. It's left up to interpretation what exactly that thing is supposed to be, but in any case it's clear that the singer feels very strongly about it.
