California Gurls
STARTER KATY PERRY FT. SNOOP DOGG Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Greetings loved ones
Let's take a journey

I know a place
Where the grass is really greener
Warm, wet n' wild
There must be something in the water
Sippin' gin and juice
Laying underneath the palm trees
(undone)
The boys
Break their necks
Try'na to creep a little sneak peek
(at us)

You could travel the world
But nothing comes close
To the golden coast
Once you party with us
You'll be falling in love
Ooh oh ooh oh oh ooh

California gurls
We're unforgettable
Daisy dukes
Bikinis on top
Sun-kissed skin
So hot
We'll melt your Popsicle
Ooh oh ooh
Ooh oh ooh

California gurls
We're undeniable
Fine, fresh, fierce
We got it unlocked
West coast represent
Now put your hands up
Ooh oh ooh
Ooh oh ooh

Sex on the beach
We don't mind sand in our stilettos
We freak
In my jeep
Snoop doggy-dog on the stereo oh oh

You could travel the world
But nothing comes close
To the golden coast
Once you party with us
You'll be falling in love
Ooh oh ooh ooh oh ooh

California gurls
We're unforgettable
Daisy dukes
Bikinis on top
Sun-kissed skin
So hot
We'll melt your Popsicle
Ooh oh ooh
Ooh oh ooh

California gurls
We're undeniable
Fine, fresh, fierce
We got it on lock
West coast represent
Now put your hands up
Ooh oh ooh
Ooh oh ooh

Toned tan
Fit and ready
Turn it up cause its gettin' heavy
Wild, wild west coast
These are the gurls I love the most
I mean the ones
I mean like shes the one
Kiss her, touch her
Squeeze her buns
The gurls a freak
She drives a jeep
And live on the beach
I'm okay
I won't play
I love the bay
Just like I love L.A.
Venice beach
And palm springs
Summer time is everything
Home boys
Bangin' out
All that ass
Hanging out
Bikinis, tankinis, martinis
No weenies
Just a king
And a Queenie
Katy my lady

'Cause you representing California (oh yeah)

Vamos cantar comigo?

Tem um lugar
Onde todas são bem lindas
Loira ou morena
Sempre bem vestidas
Leblon, que praião
Barra da tijuca
Vem, vem malhar
Todas bem tchutchucas

Eu já fui pra Londres
Eu te falo, rapaz
São brancas demais
Quando volto pro rio
Vejo gatas e Sol ô

Carioca girls são mais bonitas
Sempre bem malhadas, vamo lá
Toda queimadinha só de biquíni ô

you like my gucci shoes

This one is for the boys with the booming system
Top down, AC with the cooler system
When he come up in the club, he be blazin' up
Got stacks on deck like he savin' up
And he ill, he real, he might gotta deal
He pop bottles and he got the right kind of build
He cold, he dope, he might sell Coke
He always in the air, but he never fly coach
He a motherfuckin' trip, trip, sailor of the ship, ship
When he make it drip, drip kiss him on the lip, lip
That's the kind of dude I was lookin' for
And yes you'll get slapped if you're lookin' hoe
I said, excuse me you're a hell of a guy
I mean my, my, my, my you're like pelican fly
I mean, you're so shy and I'm loving your tie
You're like slicker than the guy with the thing on his eye, oh
Yes I did, yes I did, somebody please tell him who the eff I is
I am Nicki Minaj, I mack them dudes up,
Back coupes up, and chuck the deuce up

Lyrics
Mum-mum-mum-mah
Mum-mum-mum-mah
Mum-mum-mum-mah
Mum-mum-mum-mah
Mum-mum-mum-mah
I wanna hold 'em like they do in Texas, please
Fold 'em, let 'em, hit me, raise it, baby, stay with me (I love it)
Love game intuition, play the cards with spades to start
And after he's been hooked, I'll play the one that's on his heart
Oh, woah-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I'll get him hot, show him what I got
Oh, woah-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I'll get him hot, show him what I got
Can't read my, can't read my
No, he can't read my poker face (she's got me like nobody)
Can't read my, can't read my
No, he can't read my poker face (she's got me like nobody)
Po-po-po-poker face, (mum-mum-mum-mah)
Po-po-po-poker face, (mum-mum-mum-mah)
I wanna roll with him, a hard pair we will be
A little gambling is fun when you're with me (I love it)
Russian roulette is not the same without a gun
And, baby, when it's love, if it's not rough, it isn't fun (fun)
Oh, woah-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I'll get him hot, show him what I got
Oh, woah-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I'll get him hot, show him what I got
Can't read my, can't read my
No, he can't read my poker face (she's got me like nobody)
Can't read my, can't read my
No, he can't read my poker face (she's got me like nobody)
Po-po-po-poker face, (mum-mum-mum-mah)
Po-po-po-poker face,(mum-mum-mum-mah)
(Mum-mum-mum-mah)
I won't tell you that I love you, kiss or hug you
'Cause I'm bluffin' with my muffin
I'm not lyin', I'm just stunnin' with my love-glue gunnin'
Just like a chick in the casino
Take your bank before I pay you out
I promise this, promise this
Check this hand 'cause I'm marvelous
Can't read my, can't read my
No, he can't read my poker face (she's got me like nobody)
Can't read my, can't read my
No, he can't read my poker face (she's got me like nobody)
Can't read my, can't read my
No, he can't read my poker face (she's got me like nobody)
Can't read my, can't read my
No, he can't read my poker face (she's got me like nobody)
Can't read my, can't read my
No, he can't read my poker face (she's got me like nobody)
Can't read my, can't read my
No, he can't read my poker face (she's got me like nobody)
face (she's got me like nobody)
Po-po-po-poker face, (mum-mum-mum-mah)
Po-po-po-poker (mum-mum-mum-mah)
Po-po-po-poker face, (mum-mum-mum-mah)
Po-po-po-poker face, (mum-mum-mum-mah)
