The Lyrics

For the Brits here, this is the song from the "Yop" advert... written after being emailed a super parody to the same OS, which I hope the author will post here soon, all about the demise of the previous pope.
Well, yo' mama she made you ang-er-y
You do not like de way dat she has fon
She make a few little people happy, oh
But I can see dat she upset her son

She's got a website for de pervies
Wid all de pictures of de t'ings she don
But can you not see dat it was not me
In dat on-line publica-shee-un,

Noooo...

[chorus:]
Didn't grope yo' mama
Nope, yo' mama
Didn't grope yo' mama
'Cause I ain't dat dumb
Didn't grope yo' mama, I'm no
Dope, yo' mama
See de pix at grope-a-gran.com

I hear she make all de golden money
It quite som bus-i-ness dat she begun
While all de odder modder are stony broke
Dis is paying her de penshee-un

Now you ask me 'bout de pic-tu-wers
If I know who dat man in dem be
An' I know it true dat it don't look like you
But it do look a bit like me... Ooooh

Didn't grope yo' mama
Nope, yo' mama
Didn't grope yo' mama
What I do dat for?
Didn't grope yo' mama, she's needs
Soap, yo' mama
And yo' mama she is ninety-four

She wearing suspenders and de fishnet tights
And de t'igh-high steeletto boot
If it wasn't for de inch-deep wrinkles
Dey might say yo' mama radder cute

If she went to de trendy night-club
I t'ink it probable dat she would pull
But I tell you why dat man he is not I
It physi-logicl'y impossible, hoooo

Didn't grope yo' mama
Nope, yo' mama
Didn't grope yo' mama
She is not my type
Didn't grope yo' mama, not a
Hope, yo' mama
And yo' mama little "over-ripe"

Even de preacher who work for Jesus
De Archbishop's in a picture too
It beyond good taste, de t'ing is a disgrace
An' I cannot repeat de t'ing dey do

You tellin' her you so annoyed wid yo' mama
You sayin' you want her to stop
But dis might amuse: de joke it is on youse
Because de pictures is all Photoshops, oh!

Didn't grope yo' mama
Nope, yo' mama
Didn't grope yo' mama
She is not my pal
Didn't grope yo' mama, who's de
Dope, yo' mama
'Cause yo' mama not dat kind o' gal

I found the first minute of TOS and realised I've heard it before. Perfect pacing that far so I'll trust you on the rest too. But I'm not even gonna "telescope yo' mama" from 555 meters away!

Did it sound like Ahhnold, JD? It's supposed to be Jamayyycon, mon...

The subject matter just reminded me of Der Gropenator, that's all. ;-)

Interesting, naughty. DKTOS, as far as I can remember, still, is good.

This is pants wettingly funny, Phil....I'll be singing this for a week or more. The Jamaican accent was spot on throughout and only added to de mirth, mon. 555+++

Nice, funny jammin; parody. 5's
Phil Alexander - February 17, 2006 - Report this comment
JD - now don't that make a great mental image: Ahnold as a rasta..
Doug - the only bit of that one I can remember is "Motor bikin'" being rhymed with "lightnin'"... why not do this one yourself?
K - you've got Doug and his "Pope's a goner" parody to thank for giving me the idea
Stephen - Naughty? But nice?
Larry - thanks.

How did this one even get approved? DKTOS, sorry. Based on hilarity, this song could have been a SOTM contender on my list. But it would be easier for me to cut it down to the songs I know. You did a pretty good, if naughty, job. 333

Chris B., you are quite a hard judge...reminds me of me from some time ago. DKTOS, but that don't matter. I didn't even have to know about the commercial you mention in the intro to enjoy it (although the stanza about the archbishop is puzzling). Funny all by itself, and that's a good thing.

(AFTER LISTENING TO THE HANDYDANDY MP3) Some pacing issues here and there, matey.

The Yo Mama of all Yo Mama jokes!!! DKTOS, but don't matter this is great!!! 5-5-5 Moms That I Didn't Grope!!!
Phil Alexander - March 10, 2006 - Report this comment
Ag - you're listening to the wrong MP3.. ;-) The stanza about the preacher/archbishop would be obvious if you were listening to the OS, I'm afraid:
Even the preacher who works for Jesus
The Archbishop who's a peaceful man
Together say that the freedom fighters
Will overcome the very strong

(and somehow he *does* manage to rhyme "strong" with "man".. the archbishop in question is presumably Desmond Tutu)
Chris - so let me get this straight: you don't know the original, so you're giving me 3 on pacing; you think it's hilarious, so it's 3 for humour... and only going for songs you know in the SOTM is a bit blinkered, and IMO against the spirit of the thing.

(SOTM) Photoshop-ed or not, at least she wasn't making out with a drawing of Mohammad, that would have been really offensive. Or so I hear...

(SOTM) excellent, and bonus points for not groping my mom

(SOTM) Alvin already pinched my favorite line, though there are many good ones throughout. You nailed the accent too. 94 years old? Would that be a GGILF? Nevermind, don't answer that. The Photoshop ending was very clever too.
