Hit them with the pizzazz
I'm talking
Jazz(yeah yeah)
Jazz(yeah yeah)
Jazz(yeah yeah)
Jazz(yeah yeah)
Jazz(yeah yeah)
Jazz(yeah yeah)
Hit them with the pizzazz
I'm talkin

You're the something that I wanna do, you can call me daddy, bitch I'm fucking Yandu
I slid up in your dm's askin' baby what you tryna do
There's nothing that's beyond you, just tryna be behind you
It took forever to find you
You're someone I'm inclined to whenever I'm inspired to
To do something really filthy
Without making me feel guilty
The love doctor's in the building making all the girls say bill me
Do you accept Cash App
And what you doing really kills me, the way you moan come on baby fill me
I say I don't want your children but
you say you're on the pill and
I'm three sheets to the wind and now I'm totally willing
Girl you must be Texas cuz you heavy on that drilling
A kitty that likes swimming, baby, that pussy is dripping
And I can go all day baby and
I can go all night, but first I need a moment
To replace my lost electrolytes
And I said Freeze, get on my bed please
We's about to learn about the birds and the bees
On your hands and your knees now arch that ass up
About to go in I'm about to give a fuck
Now baby where's your wrapper I am saving you for later
And
In between my legs you're gonna find a jawbreaker
Don't
Bring your bitch around here
You know that I'm gonna take her cause
When she is with me she's not an orgasm faker

Laying the pipe, do it all night, let me know if I'm doing it right
But judging by the sounds you making I know my stroke game is tight
Bang bang dat ass is fat I'm slanging my dick like a gat
girl your pussy is a trap
That's why I hit you up on snap
Bring that around and make it clap
My dick is like this beat, it slaps
Girl I ordered us fine wine
Now put away that fuckin' pabst
I'll show you all the finer things
But when it come down to the AM
I am dipset, killa season
Sorry I ain't even playin
Yes I'm a playa but it's never the same game, nah
What is a rose if not by any other name now
Go for a ride I'll slang my thang
Rev my engine it go rrrang dang dang
I swing low got that hang hang hang
You throwing signs like a gang gang gang
Now I fuck to the beat, babygirl you're a treat
Put a towel down no stains on my sheets
Don't need a NDA they know I'm a freak
This sigma cum laude but I ain't talking Greek
Not the flavor of the week you're the soup d'jour
Hate to break it to yah but ya boi's a whore
Keep my dick wet you my humidor
Girl thank you next so now I'm out the door

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to The Bar-Kays' song "Don't Do That" may seem disjointed at first, but certain themes emerge upon close examination. The repeated word "jazz" is perhaps a reference to the music itself and its inherent dexterity and improvisational nature. The subsequent lyrics about "hit[ting] them with the pizzazz" suggest a desire to impress or dazzle others with one's own abilities.


The next section of the song focuses on a sexual encounter, with the singer boasting about his prowess and his partner's willingness. The crude language and objectification could be seen as an attempt to establish dominance or power. However, the final stanza includes a swift reversal, with the singer acknowledging that he is a "whore" and leaving shortly after the encounter. The song could thus be interpreted as a commentary on the performative nature of both jazz and sexuality, and how they can be used for validation or manipulation.
