Band Name Origins:

  • Many people confuse this for an acronym or a reference to beastiality. It said in the book that came with The Sounds of Science that they wanted a stupid name that sounded like the Angry Samoans. They also didn't expect the band to last more than a couple of gigs so named it the Beastie Boys. Submitted by: home depot
  • Acronym : Boys Entering Anarchistic States Toward Internal Excellence Submitted by: Bobo

"Time to Get Ill"
The Boasting Lyrics:
I got more rhymes than Phyllis Diller!
Comments:
I never knew Phyllis Diller had anything to do with rhyming, in particular, just that she did stand-up. This is obviously just a nonsense line, which was common in much of 80's rap music.
