Notice you, noticin' me
From across the room, I can see it
And can't stop myself from lookin'
And noticin' you, noticin' me
Watch out, I've seen her type before
That girl is so dangerous
That girl is so dangerous
I've seen her type before
She's so dangerous
That girl is so dangerous
That girl is a bad girl, yeah
Whoa! And yeah, that's her
The big dog tryna get her little kitty to purr
Ex-man lookin' at me like I'm Lucifer
'Cause he knows I will deal with the case, yes sir
If I was the last man on Earth
I would only take that girl, end of search
She give a new definition to the word curve
Got chicks in the strip club envyin' her
Body's like weapons of mass eruptions
Sit a glass on that fat obstruction
Tongue game give a new type seduction
I'm tryna give that girl somethin', Jah
Girl, I can't notice but to
Notice you, noticin' me

In Akon's song "Dangerous," the singer meets a woman at a club and is immediately drawn to her. He notices her noticing him and can't stop himself from looking at her. However, he is wary of her because he has seen her type before and knows that she is dangerous. Despite this, he cannot resist her and thinks about her constantly. He describes her as a bad girl with a killer body and seductive tongue game. The lyrics are full of sexual innuendos and references to the woman's curves and figure.
The song is essentially about lust and the dangerous allure of a woman who is not trustworthy. Akon is warning himself about the dangers of getting involved with this type of woman, but ultimately gives in to his desires. It is a common theme in popular music, but Akon's lyrics are particularly explicit and blunt.
