Driving to work I heard a wickedly funny song on JJJ. This song was better than many on the national yoof broadcaster; most cause me to wince in pain. John Butler, for instance, who was on next. And Missy Higgins who was on before. Both almost made me career into oncoming traffic.
Of course, once the stinking hipsters among you recognise the song you will probably bellow "Where have you been, dickhead? That song's been around, like, for-EVAH, duude!" But I'm not so hip, it's the first time I'd heard it and when I did, it made me laugh out loud; Lotion by Greenskeepers.
I'm looking down the hole, you're looking up at me
You're cold and tired, that is easy to see
There are the ropes, the bucket on the line
Your membrane will be soft and smooth,
and your heart will be mineIt rubs the lotion on it's skin
Or else it gets the hose again
It rubs the lotion on it's skin
Or else it gets the hose again
Yes, Precious, it gets the hose againDoooooooooo Oooo Oooo
Doooooooooo Oooo OoooThe look inside your eye is driving me from control
Evoking visions of my favourite casserole
And if I eat your heart, I'll also bite your soul
And when I've done with that,
I'll use your skull as a bowlIt rubs the lotion on it's skin
Or else it gets the hose again
It rubs the lotion on it's skin
Or else it gets the hose again
It gets the hoseIt puts the lotion in the basket
It puts the lotion in the basket
It puts the lotion in the basket
Yes it does
Put the lotion in the basket
Put the lotion in the basket
Put the lotion in the basket
Put the lotion in the basket
Yes it doesDoooooooooo Oooo Oooo
Doooooooooo Oooo OoooThe night is very cold, I'm feeling kind of weak
I think I'll make myself a cap from your right buttocks cheek
And then I will go walking with my little dog
And then I'll bury you underneath a logIt rubs the lotion on it's skin
Or else it gets the hose again
It rubs the lotion on it's skin
Or else it gets the hose again
Yes it does, PreciousIt puts the lotion in the basket
Bitch, put the lotion in the basket
Ooooh put the lotion in the fucking basket
Bitch, put the lotion in the basketNow I'm going to take it lower like this
Doooooooooo Oooo Oooo
Doooooooooo Oooo Oooo
If you don't know what it's about, that's your problem. I have no time for ignorant halfwits.
It is Ciara Glennon's dad's fave song at the moment.

Personally I prefer the real musical version of Silence of the Lambs.

Now now, be nice Tony.
How behind are these guys though that wave went years ago.
Posted by: Adventuregirl | 31 January 2005 at 15:40
Ciara Glennon? Musicals? Waves?
What can I say? I'm out of touch.

For funny (if gross and politically incorrect) rap lyrics, I still reckon you can't go past MC Paul Barman's Cock Mobster.

Youse guys are sick. You need to chill out with some wholesome family entertainment for a change.

Gotcha, Big. Psycho Killee ... qu'est que c'est?
"I'm a braniac with a veiny sac resting on the brow of Erica Eleniak"
An excellent line, Ken; and doubtless the dirty ditty's on high rotation at 105.7 Darwin.
Speaking of monsters. I give you Nabakov
Sister, dear sister,
Your goals are a bit too high.
Men, my dear are monsters.
but please don't ask me why.
there is no nice man, no good man. It's true.

Paul Barman's Cock Mobster reminds me a lot of 50 Cent's underground classic.
But instead of f*cking famous people, he's rapping about robbing famous people (with the aid of a gun or knife, naturally).

Classy stuff, Biggy Big.
No doubt middle class white boys all over the world now are getting dreadies, buying baggy pants and saying "yo" a lot.

"Don't want no nigga puttin' four thru that Bentley coupe door"
Posted by: Big Ramifications | 02 February 2005 at 14:27
"Four in the door."
Sounds like an advertizing slogan.
FITD could become the new DOHC.
Posted by: Tony.T | 02 February 2005 at 14:30
Never considered that. FITD = kewl!
FITD to become the new speed striping. Or fuzzy dice. FITD would make the driver look like a dead set HARD NUT.

You Mexicans are backward; I had the video linked two months ago; it's a hoot. As to rap lyrics, they're mere dillitantes compared to Root Boy Slim and the Sex Change Band- try Boogie 'Til You Puke and Heartbreak of Psoriasis for starters.
Posted by: PB | 03 February 2005 at 14:06
Dead set HARD NUT. Ha Ha. Dunno about that, Big. More like dead set nob head.
Sorry, Bicks, I probably read it at P&C, but must have forgot. Afterall, you ARE a Queenslander.
Classy stuff here ...
Put a quarter in the juke
And boogie 'til you puke
Pop that Locker Room
Let's really zoom
Shootin' and a-tootin'
All night long
The party lasts
'Til your brain cells gone
Get on down and boogie tonight
Don't know nothin' but
You know it's alright
Whaaa, whaaa- somebody help me
Whaaa, got to boogie
Really got to boogie
I start with port
Drink two or three quarts
I drank Pernod
Then boogie some more
Speeding two weeks
On Wyamine
Don't mix too good
With ice box wine
Get on down and do it right
Really got to boogie
Got to boogie tonight
Whaaa, got to boogie, whaaa, got to boogie
Whaaa, got to boogie, whaaa, whaaa, whaaa
Somebody got to boogie
Everybody gots to boogie
Put a quarter in the juke
Boogie 'til you puke
Form a big boss line
It's puking time
Cleaning woman
Found me on the floor
Can't wait 'til tomorrow
To boogie some more
You may have seen it on your TV
In your private home
You may have even seen it on the scoreboard In the Astrodome
Gets you in the elbows
Back of the neck
Who knows where the heartbreak's
Going next
Heartbreak of psoriasis
Heartbreak of psoriasis
With that flaky, flaky skin
When I come to your town
Looks like snow outside
So much flaky skin in my Cadillac
Can't even see to drive
Elbows started shrinking
Just about flaked away
Even with the Tegrin I'm taking
Looks like the heartbreales here to stay
Heartbreak of psoriasis
Heartbreak of psoriasis
With that flaky, flaky skin
I used to be from D.C.
But they don't want no more of me
People said my head
Was the worst dust bowl they had ever seen
I'm gonna join Hare Krishna
Become a Buddhist monk
Sell flowers in the airports
With all the other pimply punks
Heartbreak of psoriasis
Heartbreak of psoriasis
Got that flaky, flaky skin
Got that flaky, flaky skin
So much flaky skin in my Cadillac, can't even see to drive
Beep, beep flaky skin

Very excellent work, Biggy Big. You're a brick.

And you're drowning slowly?

Huh? Whazzat? Whozzits?

Huh? Whazzat? Whozzits?
Can't you see?
It's not me you're dying for
Now she's feeling more alone
Than she ever has before
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly
Off the coast and I'm headed nowhere
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly

Not familiar with their work, Biggy. And I won't take them seriously until there are five of them.
