About This Track

Fifth Harmony's 'Dope' is a track built on direct address and vocal layering. Camila Cabello opens with a conversational ease, sketching attraction to someone with an East Coast edge, before the group locks into a chorus that cycles through declarations of feeling. The hook strips back to a simple compliment, delivered with colloquial warmth; the members stack their voices across the pre-chorus to amplify the emotional reach. Normani and Cabello trade verses that move from observation to proposition, the song's architecture allowing each voice room to land. The production sits light, letting the vocal arrangements carry the weight. A melodic vamp threads through the post-chorus, giving the track a pop-radio scaffold without overwhelming the intimacy of the writing. It's a song about the difficulty of articulating attraction, and the group's solution is to let repetition and harmony do the work that words cannot quite manage.

"Dope" is a track by Fifth Harmony, from the album 7/27 (Deluxe), released 27th May 2016. Full lyrics are available below.

Lyrics

Dope

[Intro: Camila]

Doo-doo, doo, doo-roo, doo-roo

Doo-doo-roo, doo-roo-doo

Doo-doo, doo, doo-roo, doo-roo

Doo-doo-roo, doo-roo-doo

[Verse 1: Camila]

New Jersey tongue, not saying too much

I'm feeling your attitude

That East Coasting, baby, is driving me crazy

Just like it's supposed to do

With hands that could save me, face that could break me

Sort of in love with you

But I wouldn't say that to ya

[Pre-Chorus: Dinah]

And now I'm tryna find the words

To tell you how I feel and show you that it's real

And now I'm tryna find the words, oh

[Chorus: Lauren, Camila & Ally]

I don't know what else to say

But you're pretty fucking dope

Just so you know

I've been thinking 'bout ways

That I wanna hold you close

Just so you know

I don't know what else to say

But you're pretty fucking dope

Oh, just so you know

Oh, woah (Oh-huh, ah)

I don't know what else to say

But you're pretty fucking dope

[Post-Chorus: Camila, Dinah & Normani]

Doo-doo, doo, doo-roo, doo-roo

Doo-doo-roo, doo-roo-doo (Do you already know?)

Doo-doo, doo, doo-roo, doo-roo

Doo-doo-roo, doo-roo-doo (Do you already know?)

[Verse 2: Normani & Camila]

Do you got a girlfriend?

'Cause if you don't, then I'm comin' after you

Don't wanna be selfish

But I can't help it, I'm wantin' more of you

I know I'm cool as shit

You want more of it this much I know is true

But I wouldn't say that to ya

[Pre-Chorus: Dinah]

And now I'm tryna find the words

To tell you how I feel and show you that it's real

And now I'm tryna find the words, oh

[Chorus: Lauren, Dinah, Camila, Lauren & Ally]

I don't know what else to say

But you're pretty fucking dope

Just so you know (Just so you know)

I've been thinking 'bout ways

That I wanna hold you close (Wanna hold you close)

Just so you know

I don't know what else to say

But you're pretty fucking dope (Dope, yeah)

Oh, just so you know (Know)

Oh, woah (Oh-huh, ah)

I don't know what else to say

But you're pretty fucking dope

[Post-Chorus: Camila, Ally, Dinah & Normani]

Doo-doo, doo, doo-roo, doo-roo (Hey, hey)

Doo-doo-roo, doo-roo-doo (Do you already know?)

Doo-doo, doo, doo-roo, doo-roo

Doo-doo-roo, doo-roo-doo (Do you already know?)

Doo-doo, doo, doo-roo, doo-roo

Doo-doo-roo, doo-roo-doo (Do you already know?)

Doo-doo, doo, doo-roo, doo-roo

Doo-doo-roo, doo-roo-doo (Do you already know?)

[Bridge: Ally, Dinah & Normani, Ally & Camila]

What I think about ya

And all the ways that you make me feel

Do you know how I think about ya?

Ooh, ooh-woah (Do you already know?)

What I think about ya

And all the ways that you make me feel

Do you know how I think about ya?

Ooh, ooh-woah

[Outro: Lauren, Normani & Both]

I don't know what else to say

But you're pretty fucking dope

Just so you know

I've been thinking 'bout ways

That I wanna hold you close

Just so you know

I don't know what else to say

But you're pretty fucking dope

Just so you know

I've been thinking 'bout ways

That I wanna hold you close
