"Dirty Ice Cream" is a song written by Lady Gaga and Rob Fusari (Team Love Child) in 2006. The song was posted on Gaga's MySpace on April 21, 2007, however, it was removed sometime before 2008. In 2007, Gaga performed the song live at Lollapalooza, alongside "Disco Heaven", "Summerboy", and "Blueberry Kisses". The line "stop calling" was later reused in the song, "Telephone". 

Writing and inspiration

In an interview, Gaga revealed that the inspiration behind the song came from Lüc Carl, her ex-boyfriend. He told her that people going to bars in New York are like "dirty ice cream". They go to the bar and taste good the first time but became "dirty ice cream" the following times.

Lyrics

It's too much a mess and a stress to figure out
and too much pressure on us, babe
Last night you took me to the mall
And then it started to get physical

But we've only been on one date, baby
Yeah, and it was fun 'til you started acting crazy
I don't really find it very cute or sexy
When you call or incessantly, t-t-text me

Don't be dirty ice cream, baby
We could fall in love
but it's too early to be calling me like that
Stop calling oh, stop calling
It's not indecision, just my female intuition
Telling me you can't be calling me like that
Stop calling oh, stop calling

I can't live with you, yes it's true or live without
The kind of guy that I'm about
You kiss me like a rockstar and
You always wanna hold my hand

But we've only been on one date, baby
Yeah, I know it was fun till you start acting crazy
I don't really find it very cute or sexy
When you call or incessantly, t-t-text me

Don't be dirty ice cream, baby
We could fall in love
but it's too early to be calling me like that
Stop calling oh, stop calling
It's not indecision, just my female intuition
Telling me you can't be calling me like that
Stop calling oh, stop calling

Don't be, don't be (dirty ice cream)
Don't be, don't be (dirty ice cream)
Don't be, don't be (dirty ice cream)

Don't be, don't be
Oh no,
Don't be, don't be
Oh no,
don't be, don't be
Oh no,
don't be, don't be
don't be, don't be
don't be, don't be

Don't be dirty ice cream, baby
We could fall in love but it's too early to be calling me like that
Stop calling oh, stop calling
It's not indecision, just my female intuition
Telling me you can't be calling me like that
Stop calling oh, stop calling
