Oval
An oval (from Latin ovum, "egg") is a closed curve in a plane which "loosely" resembles the outline of an egg. The term is not very specific, but in some areas (projective geometry, technical drawing, etc.) it is given a more precise definition, which may include either one or two axes of symmetry. In common English, the term is used in a broader sense: any shape which reminds one of an egg.
The 3-dimensional version of an oval is called an ovoid.
Oval in geometry
The term oval when used to describe curves in geometry is not well-defined, except in the context of projective geometry. Many distinct curves are commonly called ovals or are said to have an "oval shape". Generally, to be called an oval, a plane curve should resemble the outline of an egg or an ellipse. In particular, the common traits that these curves have are:

Oval is a geographically small area of Kennington, south London, in the London Borough of Lambeth. It is situated 2.1 miles (3.38 km) to the south-east of Charing Cross. Oval straddles the border of south-west London and south-east London, and is where the postcode SE11 converges with the postcodes SW8 and SW9. Oval is best known for The Oval cricket ground, the home-ground of Surrey County Cricket Club.
Oval is within the borough constituency of Vauxhall. The Member of Parliament for the area is Kate Hoey of the Labour Party.
History
The land here was, from the seventeenth century, used for a market garden. The name "Oval" emerged from a street layout which was originated in 1790 but never completely built. The Montpelier Cricket Club leased ten acres of land from the Duchy of Cornwall in 1844, and Surrey County Cricket Club was formed soon thereafter at a meeting at the Horns Tavern (since demolished) on Kennington Park Road.
Oval (projective plane)
In mathematics, an oval in a projective plane is a set of points, no three collinear, such that there is a unique tangent line at each point (a tangent line is defined as a line meeting the point set at only one point, also known as a 1-secant). If the projective plane is finite of order q, then the tangent condition can be replaced by the condition that the set contains q+1 points. In other words, an oval in a finite projective plane of order q is a (q+1,2)-arc, or a set of q+1 points, no three collinear. Ovals in the Desarguesian projective plane PG(2,q) for q odd are just the nonsingular conics. Ovals in PG(2,q) for q even have not yet been classified. Ovals may exist in non-Desarguesian planes, and even more abstract ovals are defined which cannot be embedded in any projective plane.
Odd q
In a finite projective plane of odd order q, no sets with more points than q + 1, no three of which are collinear, exist, as first pointed out by Bose in a 1947 paper on applications of this sort of mathematics to statistical design of experiments.

Verse 1
(Carvelli) Yes, put your fly dress on
Fellas in front of the mirror, get your flex on
Take your time baby
Make sure your make-up’s tight
And plug the iron in
Make sure your threads are right
Pregame a little bit
The club making mad loot
And eat a little bit
The club got some wack food
A combination of your body
And your dance moves
Will make everybody in the spot
Act a fool
Find a place where all your ladies
Can meet you
And bring some mood music
Probably some TQ
And when you reach your destination
With no hesitation
Wind up, kick down the door
Say people I’m here
Hook
(Rasheeda) Everybody put your hands up high
Back and forth side to side
Everybody if you wanna ride
Hop on board, ya’ll now’s the time
(TQ) We are shutting cities down
Evertime we come around
Check us when we’re in your town
It’s about to go down
It’s like whoa whoa whoa whoa
Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa
(Carvelli)Carvelli, we gonna do this, baby, okay ... here we go
Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa
It’s about to go down
(Rasheeda) Yeah, fly like a G4
Walked in the club
Got the fellas like whoa
Me & my girls all dimes
PYT’s, watch how we shine

So I’m bringing out the hot sauce
Fly like Kate Moss

Check out the Louis Bag
Come in and
We shut the city down
Get poured up
Wall playing not allowed
Some make it rain
Some make it drown
We jerk lean surf
Till the club close down
Independent chicks
On the flo wit ya dress on
Make um work hard for it
Boy, put ya flex on
Hey DJ

(TQ) We are shutting cities down
Evertime we come around
Check us when we’re in your town
It’s about to go down
It’s like whoa whoa whoa whoa
Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa
Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa
It’s about to go down
(Carvelli) Don’t force yourself on a girl
Cause it’s quite dirty
Got her feeling like a night
At the Roxbury
If you’re looking quite fresh
And your game’s on
And you’re lookin’ good
Shouldn’t be a thing wrong
Cause there ain’t nothing wrong
With some bump and grind
(Rasheeda) Yeah
Softly feeling up
On something fine
Hit the dance floor hard
Feel the bass in your body
Let her come to you
You ain’t chasing these hotties
Let the money show, money flow
By her a drink
Flash the car keys a little bit
And see what she think
And if a young dude
Cuts in front of you at the club
Put your hand on his shoulder
Look at him and say
Listen, I’m here
(Rasheeda) Everybody put your hands up high
Back and forth side to side
Everybody if you wanna ride
Hop on board, ya’ll now’s the time
(TQ) We are shutting cities down
Evertime we come around
Check us when we’re in your town
It’s about to go down
