Circle Circle Dot Dot is a single by Jamie Kennedy and Stu Stone. It is the second single from their rap album Blowin' Up and is the first track on the album.
[edit] Origins
The song derives from an American children's playground song, "circle circle, dot dot", that supposedly serves to immunize a child from the affliction of cooties. The words are as follows:
- Circle, circle.
- Dot, dot.
- I got my cootie shot.
The words circle and dot are accompanied by the corresponding shapemeaning in the shape of two circles with dots in the middle being traced (or, in some cases, drawn with a pen or marker) on the recipient's hand or arm. If the cootie shot was self-administered, "you" and "your" may be substituted with "I" and "my". In some areas a self-administered shot is not considered effective (the "shot" is considered to have been already infected with cooties).
There are also several variations:
- Circle circle,
- knife knife.
- Now I've got my shot for life.
- Circle, circle.
- Square, square.
- Now I have it everywhere. (Or "Now it will stay there.")
- Circle, circle.
- Line, line.
- Now I have it all the time. (Or "Now I'm protected all the time.")
