Just cause she bounce it up and down like a trampoline

Just cause she bounce it up and down like a trampoline

You ain't even gotta vent
I know baby you spent
Anyone work hard as you
Got a right to get lit
She might even have a wedding ring
Or a doctorate in medicine
Or the daughter of the reverend
Or the daughter of the president
... aahhhhhhh
I get it, I get it, you in it to win it
... yeaaaaaaaa
I get it, I get it, you livin' forbidden
I talk different, I'm different, I'm on one
You think different, it's different, you on one
B-Bar-tender - I need me anotha one
I spark with ya and we like woah...

Things I do, don't don't worry about the things I do
Aww the things I do, don't don't worry about the things I do
Aww the things I do, I'm a fuck around and put a ring 'round you
They may never understand

The lady ain't a tramp
Just cause she bounce it up and down like a trampoline
Just cause she bounce it up and down like a trampoline
Just cause she bounce it up and down like a trampoline

Need to be free more
What the fuck we got degrees for?
If we ain't flying overseas more
If we ain't fucking on the seashore
If we ain't puffing on the breeze more
Getting cheese more
Stripper tease more
Man I got a little but I need more
Need to leave this bitch like a senior
What we get green for?
If we ain't tryna go and see more
Champagnin' with the team more
Congratulations nigga we won!
I been feeling stuck like a Uber with the child lock on the side door
If we ain't live to die for it
Going eye to eye to eye for it

Things I do, don't don't worry about the things I do
Aww the things I do, don't don't worry about the things I do
And not knowing when the shit ain't funny
And don't ask why my shirt get bloody
And don't ask where I get my honey
Don't ask where I get my muthafuckin' money

The lady ain't a tramp
Just cause she bounce it up and down like a trampoline
Just cause she bounce it up and down like a trampoline (like a trampoline)
Just cause she bounce it up and down like a trampoline
A trampoline

Oh no the lady ain't a tramp
She just be knowing what she wanting
Oh no the lady ain't a tramp
She just be knowing what she wanting
She just be knowing what she wanting
She just be knowing what she wanting (like a trampoline)
She just be knowing what she wanting
She just be knowing what she wanting (like a trampoline)

[Uncle Palmwine:]
Look let me tell you
Let me tell you something you don't know
You see, some women, they have a short range in their womb
Some men too, they also have a short range
Because when their sperm shoots out like this
OOOM
It doesn't go far, it goes very slow, as a tortoise
So as you are sexing the woman
MMmbukatu MMbukatu
The woomb opens like this
WHOOOSH
Are you getting me? Very good
Now, if the womb close the sperm remain outside
You can never impregnate your wife
We are now speaking on a typical, you know practical, biological something
You know? That's what I'm teaching you
Are you getting me?
A woman will move for another man and have a child for that man
Like they will jump from one man to another just have to have a child for that man
Eh?
Who is calling me?
Oh, my wife
Ma ay!
I'm coming! I'm coming! I'm on the way; just give me some time...

    My Interpretation

    I personally thought this wasn't a great track by JIdenna, although very catchy the chorus just comes across a little too comical for my liking. Especially given that I think the message of the song is actual quite serious and true.

    I take it as being that a woman can dress however they feel comfortable, and society shouldn't necessarily judge them simply on their looks / fashion. All people (inc. women) should be treated respectively, as you don't know why they are dressed like they are, and who are we to pass judgement on what they do or don't wear.

    The only problem I find is that this message sort of flies a little in the face of some of Jidenna's other song, in that he implies one should dress to impress to eliminate some of the stereotypes (esp. for black Americans).

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
