JUNGLEPUSSY Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
See I'm runnin errands my money spendin tell me why I'm thinkin bout you
Cuz I'm drinkin somethin n i'm dancing slow just know I'm thinkin bout you
So i'm rollin round n i'm drivin round but i'm only thinkin bout you
See I'm runnin errands my money spendin, tell me why I'm thinkin bout you
Cuz i'm drinkin sumthin n i'm dancing slow just know I'm thinkin bout you
Money can't buy love, but a nigga could rent it
Success on the way, UPS said they sent it
The process of progress got me feelin pregnant
The stress oh this got me suckin on the spliff
This mess on my desk to my neck I'm bout to flip
Sometimes I feel creepin'
Some days I feel like leavin you
Some bitches steady plottin'
Tryna drive me off the deep end, ooh I'm layin back and I'm fallin back
But I still be frontin on you
If the mood is right and the vibe is light
I might could probably come through
If the kitty slippery and we got history
Then you might could maybe slide through
Bitch don't bring me misery
Gotta keep the mystery
C'mon baby make me miss you
In the mean time, in between time
These photographs will do
I ain't proud to beg, no tears shed
Baby just between me and you
I don't know how I'm supposed to flow on this shit what I'm gonna do
I want the head, the stars, the neck, the cars, the checks, and the moon??? the time I had, thank the lord for makin me cute
You don't have a clue what the fuck I do and my new shit gon shit on you
In "Bout You" by JUNGLEPUSSY, the singer is driving aimlessly around town, running errands and spending money but unable to get their mind off of someone they care about. Despite their distraction, they try to maintain an air of nonchalance, "frontin" on their lover and maintaining a sense of mystery. The lyrics express conflicting emotions - the singer alternates between feeling like they're falling back and feeling "creepin'," and they're open to the possibility of seeing the other person (if the "mood is right" and the "kitty" is "slippery," which likely refers to sexual attraction). The chorus is a repeated declaration that the singer is only thinking about the other person, while the second verse touches on themes of success and stress, using the metaphor of feeling "pregnant." The chorus repeats again before the song ends on an ambiguous note, with the singer admitting that they don't know how they're supposed to proceed with their life.
Despite only being two minutes long, "Bout You" packs a lot of nuance and emotional complexity into its lyrics. The song explores the idea of distraction and how hard it can be to focus on practical matters when one is consumed by feelings for someone else. There's a sense of restlessness and aimlessness expressed in the lyrics, as the singer drives around without any particular destination in mind. They're also feeling torn between their desire for the other person and their need for space and independence.
Overall, "Bout You" is a catchy, relatable song that captures the confusion and intensity of romantic attraction. While the lyrics are somewhat ambiguous, they're also deeply personal and emotionally resonant.
