CHORUS : Hey gal you a look on me hard deh oh
I hope you can handle pengeleng
You a walk and a talk how you want me oh,

Since you full a big chat me a go put yuh pon spot
Make sure you can handle pengeleng

VERSE 1: Stress,mi a come fi bus secret, mi come fi confess
Some gal them body good but them work nah impress

Worries and stress if you cross mi border
Hold up deh a minute make mi give unnu the sage

True dem hear the pattern and style we got a lotta
Three of them want me be them baby father.

Overall Meaning

The song "Pengeleng" by T.O.K. is an upbeat dancehall track that delves into the driving force that is temptation. The lyrics of the chorus which are repeated throughout the song are directed at a woman he sees as having set her sights on him but he's not convinced she can handle the heat that comes with being with him. The song's title, "Pengeleng" is a colloquial term that translates to a physical maneuver often seen in dancehall music where the body moves in a wave-like motion. This gesture is frequently used to express the power of sexual attraction and can be thought of as a warning telling anyone who cannot withstand this motion to be cautious.


In the first verse, the singer confesses that he has secrets and is looking for someone to share them with, someone who is more than just a pretty face, someone who can impress him with more than just their looks. The singer describes how this woman thought she was the best but has failed to use the blessings that Jah has given her. The singer points out that he has a stable of women who know how to handle the Pengeleng and even win contests when it comes to the champion bubbler style. In the second verse, the singer warns that he's not interested in weak women who can't handle the pressure, he's looking for someone who can challenge him, someone who can keep up with his tempo, and he mentions several women who have shown that they can.
