1. 개요
미국의 유명 힙합 그룹 푸지스의 멤버였던 로린 힐의 싱글이며 그녀의 솔로 데뷔 앨범 The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill의 첫 싱글로 1998년 8월 10일에 발매되었다.2. 상세
빌보드 싱글 차트 1위를 달성한 로린 힐의 대표곡으로, 외모 자랑에만 힘을 쓰며 본질적인 개선을 꾀하지 않는 여자들과 폭력적이며 여성혐오적인 성향을 가지고 여자들의 성적인 부분에만 집착하는 남성들을 비판하는 가사를 가지고 있다.[1]또한 그녀의 뛰어난 래핑과 보컬이 모두 드러나는 곡이기도 하다. 1인 다역을 한 뮤직비디오도 인상적.[2]

4. 가사
Doo Wop (That Thing) [Intro] Yo, remember back on the Bully When cats used to harmonize like (Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh) Yo, yo, my men and my women Don't forget about the deen Sirat al-Mustaqeem Yo, it's about a thing, uh, yo, yo If ya feel real good wave your hands in the air And lick two shots in the atmosphere! (Put them up, put them up) (Put them up, put them up) (Put them up, put them up) [Verse 1] It's been three weeks since you were looking for your friend The one you let hit it and never called you again 'Member when he told you he was 'bout the Benjamins? You act like you ain't hear him then give him a little trim To begin, how you think you're really gon' pretend Like you wasn't down and you called him again? Plus, when you give it up so easy you ain't even foolin' him If you did it then, then you'd probably fuck again Talking out your neck, sayin' you're a Christian A Muslim, sleeping with the jinn Now that was the sin that did Jezebel in Who you gon' tell when the repercussions spin? Showing off your ass 'cause you're thinking it's a trend Girlfriend, let me break it down for you again You know I only say it 'cause I'm truly genuine Don't be a hard rock when you really are a gem Baby girl, respect is just a minimum Niggas fucked up and you still defending 'em Now, Lauryn is only human Don't think I haven't been through the same predicament Let it sit inside your head like a million women in Philly, Penn It's silly when girls sell their souls because it's in Look at where you be in, hair weaves like Europeans Fake nails done by Koreans Come again (A win win, come again A win win, come again) [Hook] Guys, you know you'd better watch out Some girls, some girls are only about That thing, that thing, that thing That thing, that thing, that thing [Verse 2] The second verse is dedicated to the men More concerned with his rims and his Timbs than his women Him and his men come in the club like hooligans Don't care who they offend, poppin' yang (like you got yen!) Let's stop pretend, the ones that pack pistols by they waist men Cristal by the case men, still in they mother's basement The pretty face men claiming that they did a bid men Need to take care of they three or four kids And they face a court case when the child support late Money taking and heart breaking, now you wonder why women hate men The sneaky, silent men The punk, domestic violence men Quick to shoot the semen, stop acting like boys and be men How you gonna win when you ain't right within? How you gonna win when you ain't right within? How you gonna win when you ain't right within? Uh-uh, come again (Yeah) Hey, yo-yo, come again My French men, come again My sister, come again [Bridge] Watch out, watch out Look out, look out Watch out, watch out Look out, look out Watch out, watch out Look out, look out Watch out, watch out Look out, look out [Hook] Girls, you know you'd better watch out Some guys, some guys are only about That thing, that thing, that thing That thing, that thing, that thing Guys, you know you'd better watch out 'Cause girls, some girls are only about That thing, that thing, that thing That thing, that thing, that thing Girls, you know you’d better watch out Some guys, some guys are only about That thing, that thing, that thing That thing, that thing, that thing [Outro Skit] Class! Hey, we’ve got some very intelligent women here, man Do you think you’re too young to really love somebody? (No! No, no, I don’t think so) I say it for me, uh, I’m an adult I say, wait “You’re too young to be in love, this is silly You’re infatuated or whatever, you got nice jeans You wear fancy Adidas” I mean, it might be something I don’t know (It's the difference from loving somebody and being in love with somebody) Well, you tell me. What’s the difference? (Okay. You can love anybody but when you’re in love with somebody you’re looking at it like this—you’re taking that person for what he or she is no matter what he or she look like or no matter what he or she do) (You’re crazy! You fall in love, you can fall out of love) (You might stop being in love with them but you are not gonna stop loving that person) (Maybe they ain’t never been loved before or been in love before, they don’t know what the feeling is to be loved) (She poetic) She killed it, we could end that conversation with that, right? |

묘하게 현대적인 사랑에 대한 남녀를 모두 깐다는 점에서
Gold Digger와 유사하다. 단, Gold Digger는 남자인 칸예 관점에서 이야기가 진행되는지라 돈을 밝히는 여자를 비판하는 내용이 주인 반면 이 노래는 여자인 로린 힐 관점에서 이야기가 진행되므로 여성에 대한 비판도 '여자들은 그 자체로 소중한데 외모적인 면에만 집착한다'며 비판하는 내용이고 대신 폭력적이며 여성의 외적인 면에만 집착하는 남성에 대한 비판이 주이다. 물론, 둘 다 근본적으로는 현대적인 사랑의 경향성을 비판하는 곡이기는 하지만 성별에 따른 화자의 시점에 따라 내용이 다르다.

참고로 1967년과 1998년을 배경으로 로린 힐이 맡은 여가수가 노래하는 방식인데, 1967년이 페미니즘의 상징격 곡인
아레사 프랭클린의
Respect가 나온 해임을 생각하면 의미심장하다.
