Lyrics
[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
Boy, what you lookin' for?
You know where them cookies are
Yeah, I caught yo' ass red-handed in that cookie jar
Boy, what you lookin' for?
You know where them cookies are
Yeah, I caught yo' ass red-handed in that cookie jar
[Verse 1]
Brookie, he rookie, he want the cookie, the cookie
I think you thirsty, you milkin' it, tryna crook me, mistook me
For something sweet and you're right, but I can't be that tonight
Love had her shavin' it clean, but now that pussy on Wookiee, boy
Go and handle your part, caught you with hands in that jar
Suckin' that sweet tooth, that canker sore, too low, need to crank it more
And you know you've been savin' for all them bitches who pay you more
He call me Oreo, break it and lick the flavor off, and
[Chorus]
Boy, what you lookin' for?
You know where them cookies are
Yeah, I caught yo' ass red-handed in that cookie jar
Boy, what you lookin' for?
You know where them cookies are
Yeah, I caught yo' ass red-handed in that cookie jar
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-ooh-oh, and what, you lookin' for it?
Oh-ooh-oh, and what, you lookin' for it?
Oh-ooh-oh, and what, you lookin' for it?
Oh-ooh-oh, and what, you lookin' for it? (Yeah, I caught yo' ass red-handed in that-, baby)
[Verse 2]
Everybody like, "Notice me, Senpai"
Y'all n*ggas all woe is me, woe is me
On the billboard, that's me Senpai
Y'all n*ggas ain't cold as me
Hold my hoops, knock it out cold, all these hands tied
I fight for the cause, and tight with ya broad
'Cause I can afford that, drama come, I ignore that
Fuck talkin', she record that, Pokemon Go, you Snorlax
Swear they been sleepin' on me, I give you Hollywood tease
Breakfast at Tiffany's, ain't got a reason to be seein' me
You seein' all that's to see, baby, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
Boy, what you lookin' for?
You know where them cookies are
Yeah, I caught yo' ass red-handed in that cookie jar Boy,
what you lookin' for? You know where them cookies are
Yeah, I caught yo' ass red-handed in that cookie jar
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-ooh-oh, and what, you lookin' for it?
Oh-ooh-oh, and what, you lookin' for it?
Oh-ooh-oh, and what, you lookin' for it?
Oh-ooh-oh, and what, you lookin' for it? (Yeah, I caught yo' ass red-handed in that cookie jar, yuh)
[Verse 3]
Boy, I know that you need that choco-chip
I got extra taco but you better bring that macho grip
Not gon' fuck around, you had me fooled, thinkin' you not gon' slip
It's my modern life, make me wanna find some Rocko dick
I will dig it up and bring that shit back like some moccasins
You don't want these problems, fuck a promise,
I will not forget I thought love was blind but you lookin',
tryna find a trick fine as this
You won't get these sweets again, like Violet, you childish
[Chorus]
Boy, what you lookin' for?
You know where them cookies are Yeah,
I caught yo' ass red-handed in that cookie jar Boy,
what you lookin' for?
You know where them cookies are Yeah,
I caught yo' ass red-handed in that cookie jar
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-ooh-oh, and what, you lookin' for it?
Oh-ooh-oh, and what, you lookin' for it?
Oh-ooh-oh, and what, you lookin' for it?
Oh-ooh-oh, and what, you lookin' for it? (Yeah, I caught yo' ass red-handed in that cookie jar)
Oh-ooh-oh, and what, you lookin' for it?
Oh-ooh-oh, and what, you lookin' for it?
Oh-ooh-oh, and what, you lookin' for it?
Oh-ooh-oh, and what, you lookin' for it? (Yeah, I caught yo' ass red-handed in that cookie jar, yuh)
Background
Around 2017 - 2018, Doja Cat shared the early tracklist of Amala before its release. The tracklist had some cut tracks and "Cookie Jar" serving as the eighth track, next to it written "Listen/review" and "Feature". It's unknown who was intended to be on the song and if the song ever got a feature.
Throughout November 2017, Doja Cat performed majority of Amala, along with "Cookie Jar", at Lizzo's Good as Hell Tour as Doja was the opening act.
Theme
When asked about the song in November 2019, Doja Cat explained the slang term "cookie" refers to the female genitalia.[1] Doja uses a cookie jar as a metaphor for the plenty of women her partner has hooked up with without her knowledge. She views her man as a boy searching through a cookie jar who doesn't realize that Doja's cookie is the one he really needs. [2]
