Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yeah
Oh, we about to get it just a little hot and sweaty in this mothafucka (oh, baby)
Ladies let's go
Soldiers let's go (Dolls)
Let me talk to y'all and just you know give you a little situation
Listen (fellas)
You see this shit get hot
Every time I come through
When I step up in the spot (are you ready?)
Make the place sizzle like a summertime cookout
Prowl for the best chick, yes, I'm on the lookout (let's dance)
So banging, shorty like a belly dancer with it
Smell good, pretty skin, so gangsta with it (oh, baby)
No tricks, only diamonds under my sleeve
Gimme the number, but make sure you holla before you leave
I know you like me (I know you like me)
I know you do (I know you do)
That's why whenever I come around
She's all over you
And I know you want it (I know you want it)
It's easy to see (it's easy to see)
And in the back of your mind I know
You should be on with me
Don't cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me?
Don't cha wish your girlfriend was a freak like me?
Don't cha?
Don't cha?
Don't cha wish your girlfriend was raw like me?
Don't cha wish your girlfriend was fun like me?
Don't cha?
Don't cha?
Fight the feeling (fight the feeling)
Leave it alone (leave it alone)
'Cause if it ain't love
It just ain't enough to leave my happy home
Let's keep it friendly (let's keep it friendly)
You have to play fair (you have to play fair)
See I don't care
But I know she ain't gonna wanna share
Don't cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me? (Oh)
Don't cha wish your girlfriend was a freak like me? (Like me)
Don't cha?
Don't cha baby? Don't cha?
Alright, sing
Don't cha wish your girlfriend was raw like me? (Raw)
Don't cha wish your girlfriend was fun like me? (Big fun)
Don't cha?
Okay, I see how it's goin' down (ahh, don't cha)
Seems like shorty wanna little ménage pop off or something (let's go)
Well let me get straight to it
Every broad wan watch a nigga when I come through it
It's the god almighty, looking all brand new
If shorty wanna jump in my Aston Vanquish
Looking at me all like she really wanna do it
Tryna put it on me 'til my balls black and blueish
You wanna play wit' a playa, girl, then play on
Strip out the Chanel and leave the lingerie on
Watch me and I'ma watch you at the same time
Looking like you wan' break my back
You're the very reason why I keep a pack of the Magnum
An wit the wagon hit cha in the back of the magnum
For the record, don't think it was something you did
Shorty all on me 'cause it's hard to resist the kid
I got a idea that's dope for y'all
As y'all could get so I could hit the both of y'all
See I know she loves you (I know she loves you)
I understand (I understand)
I'd probably be just as crazy about you
If you were my own man
Maybe next lifetime (maybe next lifetime)
Possibly (possibly)
Until then old friend your secret is safe with me
Don't cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me? (Oh)
Don't cha wish your girlfriend was a freak like me? (Like me)
Don't cha?
Don't cha baby? Don't cha?
Alright, sing
Don't cha wish your girlfriend was raw like me? (Raw)
Don't cha wish your girlfriend was fun like me? (Big fun)
Don't cha?
Don't cha?
"Don't Cha" is a song by The Pussycat Dolls featuring rapper Busta Rhymes. The song is all about flirting with a man who already has a girlfriend - Nicole Scherzinger sings to him about how amazing she is and how much better she would be than his current girlfriend, asking the question "Don't cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me?" While the concept of the song may be seen as problematic by some, the tune became incredibly popular and was a smash hit, reaching number one in several countries and earning The Pussycat Dolls their breakthrough hit.
The lyrics of the song are straightforward and not particularly deep, focusing mainly on seduction and flirting. The musical style draws from R&B and pop, featuring a catchy beat and a memorable chorus that is easy to sing along with. Busta Rhymes adds a rap verse to the song, offering his own take on the situation and suggesting a potential threesome. The song's video features the group and Busta Rhymes dancing and performing in a nightclub.
