The lyrics of Lyrikal's song Dip and Roll are focused on the Carnival season, which is celebrated in many Caribbean countries. The song is a call for all the ladies (dem gyal) to join in the festivities, regardless of where they are from. The opening lines of "This is 4 all dem gyal / Doh care wer yuh from / Just wah yuh want" essentially set the tone for the song - come one, come all, and let's have a good time.
The chorus is an invitation to the ladies to show off their moves on the road: "Dip & roll (dip & roll) / Chip & roll (chip & roll) / All dem gyal dem winnin / I right dey behind dem yeah." The references to "dip and roll" and "chip and roll" are likely references to two popular dance moves during Carnival season. The singer is declaring that all the ladies are in the lead, and he's happy to follow behind and admire their skills.
The lyrics also contain some sexually suggestive lines such as "Gyal awah yuh spread out and put it on meh / Gyal awah yuh bounce it bounce it bounce it bounce it bounce it right down to d beat" but are delivered in a playful and almost innocent manner.
Overall, the lyrics of Dip and Roll convey a sense of joy, celebration, and appreciation for the beauty and power of women during Carnival season.
