Flirt
The Pussycat Dolls Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Flirt, flirt!

You wanna chill in my Lamborghini,
You wanna look but you don't wanna see
So what you think of that look in my eyes?
You think it's for you?
You think you read minds?
You better watch where you're putting those hands,
You better stop if you're making more plans
'Cause everything you do makes you look like a fool

[Chorus]
You're looking for some dirt,
I'm lifting up my skirt
I'm searching for a light under me in my purse
You always think the worst,
I just wanna flirt
You found me on my knees,
Next thing you're saying "tease"
I'm trying to find my phone and my keys, not your sleaze
My spell is like a curse,
I just wanna flirt

What part of "No" don't you really understand?
One-syllable word, old man?
You got a problem with my space?
Get your look out of my face
'Cause I've had it with your lies
You're pretty damn close to being unfine
'Cause everything you do makes you look like a fool

[Chorus]

I'm just so lucky to be walking on a wire,
I'm up so high that I can barely feel your fire
You can't touch me, no,
That's just a dream!

Overall Meaning

The Pussycat Dolls' song Flirt is packed with attitude and sexual empowerment. The lyrics are all about a woman who wants to flirt without feeling any sense of inhibition or pressure. She's strong, confident, and knows what she wants, singing that she just wants to flirt but isn't interested in any deeper connections. In the first verse, she warns a man who thinks he's reading her mind and making plans that he's only making himself look foolish. She follows that up in the chorus by telling him that he's looking for dirt, while she just wants to have fun and be flirtatious.


The second verse is even more confrontational. The singer doesn't want to be bothered by men who can't take "no" for an answer, while also calling them out for lying and being unfine. She sings about being lucky to be walking on a wire, high above men's expectations and desires, and tells them they will never be able to control her. The song is about female empowerment and the ability to play with flirtation without it leading to anything else.

are all of them singing? this sounds awesome, they should all start singing together equally.

The Unimpressed Beetch

no, only four people singing... Nicole and Carmit did lead and background vocals, Melody I believe only some adlibs (quite not sure though, if its only adlibs) and Kara DioGuardi sang additional background vocals

I remember listening to this song for the first time in the car of my aunt, when I bought a copy of the "Buttons" Single, where "Flirt" was the last track of. I was surprised by the variety in just one single, it almost felt like an "mini-album". ❤️

Too bad they never performed this song live. I hope that they'll do that in the future one day. 😅

Sharon Cross

Joseph Lewis

I remember this song. This song-Flirt is amazing. The Pussycat Dolls are fantastic, I'm a huge fan of them. Nicole Scherzinger is my favourite member, she's beautiful, she's talented, she's fabulous and I absolutely love her.
