The Dirty Lyrics: She bop--he bop--a--we bop
I bop--you bop--a--they bop Be bop--be bop--a--lu--she bop, I hope he will understand She bop--he bop--a--we bop I bop--you bop--a--they bop Be bop--be bop--a--lu--she bop, Oo--oo--she--do--she bop--she bop Why They're Dirty: It's no wonder this song is at the bottom of the Parent's Music Rresource Center's Filthy Fifteen. It's pretty obivous that this song is about masturbation. The chorus makes it that obvious.
