Tiësto Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So she gon' call her friends, now that's a plan
I just ordered sushi from Japan
Now your bitch wanna kick it, Jackie Chan
Drop top, how we rollin' down on Collins South Beach (yeah)
Look like Kelly Rowland, this might be my destiny (yeah)
She want me to eat it, I guess dinner's on me (I got you, babe)
She just wanna do it for the 'Gram (you know, you know)
She just want this money in my hand (I know, you know)
I'ma give it to her when she dance, dance, dance (ayy)
She gon' catch an Uber out to Calabasas
She say she's too young, don't want no man
So she gon' call her friends, now that's a plan
I just ordered sushi from Japan
Now your bitch wanna kick it, Jackie Chan
She say she's too young, don't want no man

The lyrics of Tiësto's song "Jackie Chan" describe a young woman who says she does not want a man because she is too young. Instead, she plans on calling her friends to hang out. Tiësto, however, has ordered sushi from Japan, and that has piqued the woman's interest, and she wants to spend time with him. In the chorus, the woman repeats that she's too young to want a man, but now she wants to hang out with Tiësto and "kick it like Jackie Chan."
The second verse provides insights into Tiësto's personality. Tiësto believes that people have the wrong impression of him because of the neighborhood he's from. Also, he admits that he's crazy about the woman he's talking to, and he's willing to put in the effort to impress her. He tells her to fuck the world and that he wants to enjoy life at a fast pace, even though they might be moving slowly in their romantic relationship.
Overall, the song is a fun, upbeat tune that features Tiësto's signature electronic dance beats, clever lyrics, and a catchy refrain.
