Do the Damn Thing
Original Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Yo yo, Mathletes State championships, what!
First female ever on the team, what
A boxed lunch will be provided

What!

I can do this
Always could
And not playing dumb will feel so damn good
The monster inside needs to be released
Gotta do what I do, gotta feed the beast

Gotta earn some respect
Grab that big brass ring

Let's do this thing

Let's do this thing!

You're gonna roll up, stylin'
Leather on your sleeve
All-state champion, better believe
Maybe the haters gonna make fun of you
All you can solve's the problem in front of you
High school's a four year social curse
But math's the foundation of the

Universe!

So sick of plucking that second string
Then let's

Beep!
Do this thing!

Do this thing!
Do this thing!

I'm no plastic!

No!

I'm no bitch!

No!

I'm a lean, mean math machine
On a mission!

I lost what I lost
But I'll start brand new
Go all in for the win
With a chill, dope crew!
Gotta kick off the dust

I got schquillz to thrill

Schquillz!

Let's do this thing!
Let's do this thing!

Welcome to the icmt state final math championships, sponsored by no one
Please solve for

X equals two

The rate is two, PI

X is greater than the value of Y

Both polynomials are second degree
So the asymptote is that y equals three

Function X equals M, X, plus C

The derivative of F at argument Z

Negative four

Negative two

The slope is zero

The answer is true!

One point of inflection

Twenty-nine!

Four is the slope of the tangent line!

we have a tie
we move into a one on one sudden death round
In which each team may choose their opponent
Marymount, who do you select?

We pick the girl

We pick the girl too

Nice to meet you

You're going down, slut

What? No!

If we break, from this crap
Then the answers land in our lap
Don't be scared, just persist
Then our limit does not exist
No, the limit does not exist!

Our new state champion, the North Shore Mathletes!

Aw, yeah, you like that Marymount?!

And don't it feel good
To have gotten this far?
It's for something you did
Not the girl you are
You can hear the fear
Upon your heart just sayin'
"Just do your thing"

All you solve's the problem in front of you

Do your thing

Living for me, not dancing for none of you




Do your thing!
Do your thing!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song "Do the Damn Thing" by Originals paint a vivid picture of a young woman breaking stereotypes and proving her worth in the competitive world of math championships. The opening lines set the stage for the singer's journey as the first female member of the Mathletes State championships team, highlighting the significance of her achievement. The provision of a boxed lunch may seem trivial, but it symbolizes the support and recognition she deserves for her efforts.


The singer expresses her determination and belief in herself, emphasizing that she has always possessed the ability to excel in mathematics. The lyrics convey a sense of empowerment as she refuses to downplay her intelligence and vows to unleash her full potential. The reference to the "monster inside" that needs to be released suggests a metaphorical inner strength and drive that she must tap into to succeed.


As the singer faces challenges and obstacles, she resolves to earn respect and seize opportunities to prove her abilities. The mention of grabbing the "big brass ring" metaphorically signifies reaching for success and achieving one's goals. The chorus's repetition of "Let's do this thing" resonates as a mantra for taking action, facing difficulties head-on, and not backing down.


The lyrics also address the singer's defiance against societal expectations and stereotypes. She rejects being labeled as "plastic" or a "bitch" and asserts her identity as a skilled mathematician on a mission. The reference to high school as a "social curse" contrasts with the singer's passion for math, which she views as the foundation of the universe, highlighting her dedication and commitment to her craft.


The climax of the song culminates in the intense math competition where the singer and her team face off against rivals. Despite facing taunts and challenges, she maintains her composure and focuses on solving the mathematical problems in front of her. The ultimate victory in the state championships serves as a triumph of hard work, perseverance, and self-belief, sending a powerful message of empowerment and resilience. The lyrics encourage listeners to embrace their individuality, overcome obstacles, and "do their thing" with confidence and determination.
