Dirty
Ol' Dirty Bastard Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Two steps from the border line
Anything closer will kiss the nine
Think I'm out the game? You out of your mind
Cuz I stay on track, like transit line
Keep it nappy or braided up
Dirty in the cockpit, blazin' up
Stop frontin' when you made it up
Tellin' all my hoes, you can't spray it up
Hah, huggin' nuts like tighty whites
Still trickin' on hoes like Heidi Fleiss
You know why niggas don't give you much respect
Cuz they seen you gettin' slapped with the empty gat
Know Dirt, like bow know death
When I'm huntin' down, birds of rap
Hate Dog, cuz I ate your cat
And you can eat my ass and have a coke with that
Use a spoon, unless you want a fork
Pull my dick out, watch the room get dark
Stay high with the zombie walk
Gotta sit my ass down, like Rosa Parks

Dirty Dirty, you tell me how you do it
It look so easy, like there was nothin' to it
But they don't understand, about the Dirty M.C
It's the... (Ohhhhhhhhhh), new track by ODB

They say dirt and sunshine make the flowers grow
I say, fuck a bitch raw and drive your nut on the floor
Call it what you want, you son of a ho
I was 5 percent til' white bitches came and dropped it down to four
3, 2, 1, I can lick the sun with my tongue
Pull it out and smack a nigga, just for thinkin' I'm done
Shut your trap, razor blade cut your wrap
Fat girls seen me comin', started tuckin' their flab




Rhymefest and Dirt Dog, gon' spark this
The day he got to heaven, track mud on the carpets
Hot like the hot potato, you niggas ain't macho
You hot as gazpacho
Go to the show, for hot dogs and nacho's
This me and Dirt Dog's style, it's not yours

[2X}

What can make a ho, look more cuter
Hennessey shots, or smoke more Buddha?

I don't know Dirt, now she look like Zab Judah
Test my manhood, go get my dick ruler

Now you hungry, wanna eat right through her
But you better first track for a noter
Like does she have a best friend, or a daughter
Has she ever tried fuckin' under water

Down down with the fishes, deep sea dishes
I ain't a genie, bitch, I don't respect your wishes
This trick ain't fuckin' me though, god damn
Something very wrong, I don't understand

Misinterpetate, let me break it down
Two pulls make the your merry go round
Touch your toes, show me that rose
Butt naked, in a Wu-Tang pose
Wide open, girl, everything goes
Real freaky, when you powder that nose

Keep it and move, I sleep in the nude
I'm keepin' it rude, pull out my dick and pee in the food
On the way to the stars, don, where's the map?
We fuckin' there, and we gonna fuck back

Yeah, Dirt Dog, Rhymefest, you want it, man
Rest in peace, I know you heaven right now
Trackin' mud on the carpet, so, we gon' let ya
Do what you do it's the ohhhhhhh
Don't forget the crew, it's the Wuuuuuu
I thought you knew, it's the Ol' Dirt Dog
Rhymefest, yeah yeah, from now to 3000, man
What's rap with Dirty? What's the world without Dirt?
Just a bunch of fuckin' water, ohhhhhhhhh
We out...

Line by Line Meaning

Two steps from the border line
I'm so close to getting what I need, but if I go any further, things could get dangerous


Anything closer will kiss the nine
If I go any further, I might get shot


Think I'm out the game? You out of your mind
Don't count me out yet, I'm still in the game


Cuz I stay on track, like transit line
I stay focused on my goals and don't get sidetracked


Keep it nappy or braided up
I'm comfortable with my hair however it is


Dirty in the cockpit, blazin' up
I'm smoking weed in the cockpit of a plane


Stop frontin' when you made it up
Don't lie about your accomplishments


Tellin' all my hoes, you can't spray it up
You can't touch my women


Hah, huggin' nuts like tighty whites
You're always trying to get in with the people in power


Still trickin' on hoes like Heidi Fleiss
I'm still paying for sex with prostitutes like Heidi Fleiss


You know why niggas don't give you much respect
People don't respect you because they've seen you get humiliated


Cuz they seen you gettin' slapped with the empty gat
They saw you get hit with a gun that wasn't even loaded


Know Dirt, like bow know death
My reputation is solid, and everyone knows who I am


When I'm huntin' down, birds of rap
I'm always looking for the next big thing in music


Hate Dog, cuz I ate your cat
People hate me because I'm a wild, unpredictable person


And you can eat my ass and have a coke with that
No matter how much you insult me, I don't care


Use a spoon, unless you want a fork
Be careful what you ask for, because you might not like it


Pull my dick out, watch the room get dark
I'm a dominant, attention-seeking person who likes to shock people


Stay high with the zombie walk
I'm always high, and I walk like a zombie because of it


Gotta sit my ass down, like Rosa Parks
I need to take a break and rest, just like Rosa Parks stood up for herself


Dirty Dirty, you tell me how you do it
Can you explain how you're so successful?


It look so easy, like there was nothin' to it
You make it look easy, but I know it's not


But they don't understand, about the Dirty M.C
People don't really understand what I'm all about


It's the... (Ohhhhhhhhhh), new track by ODB
This is my latest song, and it's going to be amazing


They say dirt and sunshine make the flowers grow
People say that even negative things can have a positive outcome


I say, fuck a bitch raw and drive your nut on the floor
I suggest having unprotected sex with a woman and then ejaculating on the floor


Call it what you want, you son of a ho
You can call me whatever you want, but I don't care


I was 5 percent til' white bitches came and dropped it down to four
I thought I was invincible, until women brought me down


3, 2, 1, I can lick the sun with my tongue
I'm capable of doing anything, no matter how crazy it sounds


Pull it out and smack a nigga, just for thinkin' I'm done
Don't underestimate me, or I'll show you who's boss


Shut your trap, razor blade cut your wrap
Be quiet, or I'll cut you


Fat girls seen me comin', started tuckin' their flab
I have a reputation for sleeping with overweight women


Rhymefest and Dirt Dog, gon' spark this
Together, Rhymefest and I are going to make something amazing happen


The day he got to heaven, track mud on the carpets
Rhymefest was so amazing, even when he got to heaven, he caused a scene


Hot like the hot potato, you niggas ain't macho
I'm hot, and you're not man enough to handle it


You hot as gazpacho
You're cold and unappealing


Go to the show, for hot dogs and nacho's
Come to my concert and enjoy some stadium food


This me and Dirt Dog's style, it's not yours
Don't try to copy our style, it's unique to us


What can make a ho, look more cuter
What can make a prostitute look more attractive?


Hennessey shots, or smoke more Buddha?
Is it alcohol or weed that makes them look better?


I don't know Dirt, now she look like Zab Judah
I'm not sure what's going on, but this woman looks like someone else now


Test my manhood, go get my dick ruler
If you want to prove yourself, you need to measure up to me


Now you hungry, wanna eat right through her
Now that you find her more attractive, you want to have sex with her


But you better first track for a noter
You better make sure she's not taken before you make your move


Like does she have a best friend, or a daughter
Is there anyone else around who could cause problems?


Has she ever tried fuckin' under water
This might be a good opportunity for some adventurous sex


Down down with the fishes, deep sea dishes
Let's have sex underwater


I ain't a genie, bitch, I don't respect your wishes
I don't care what you want, I'm going to do what I want


This trick ain't fuckin' me though, god damn
This woman isn't going to have sex with me


Something very wrong, I don't understand
I'm confused about what's happening


Misinterpetate, let me break it down
You misunderstood me, let me explain it better


Two pulls make the your merry go round
Just two hits of weed can make you feel amazing


Touch your toes, show me that rose
Bend over and show me your butt


Butt naked, in a Wu-Tang pose
Completely naked, in a pose like the Wu-Tang Clan


Wide open, girl, everything goes
Let's get wild and do anything we want


Real freaky, when you powder that nose
You're really wild when you use cocaine


Keep it and move, I sleep in the nude
Let's keep doing what we're doing, and I like to sleep naked


I'm keepin' it rude, pull out my dick and pee in the food
I'm being crude, and I'm going to urinate in the food


On the way to the stars, don, where's the map?
We're on our way to the top, but do we have a plan?


We fuckin' there, and we gonna fuck back
We're going to make it to the top, and we're not going to back down


Yeah, Dirt Dog, Rhymefest, you want it, man
Together, Rhymefest and I are unstoppable


Rest in peace, I know you heaven right now
Rest in peace, Rhymefest, I know you're in heaven


Trackin' mud on the carpet, so, we gon' let ya
Rhymefest was always wild, so we'll let him do his thing


Do what you do it's the ohhhhhhh
Keep being yourself, Rhymefest


Don't forget the crew, it's the Wuuuuuu
Don't forget about the Wu-Tang Clan


I thought you knew, it's the Ol' Dirt Dog
I'm still here, and I'm still doing my thing


Rhymefest, yeah yeah, from now to 3000, man
Rhymefest will be remembered forever


What's rap with Dirty? What's the world without Dirt?
What's rap without me? What's the world without me?


Just a bunch of fuckin' water, ohhhhhhhhh
It's nothing, just meaningless and worthless


We out...
We're done here
