Ben Folds mounting a surprisingly strong challenge there with the Dre cover!
I came here to post “In the Summertime”, I see it’s already been done.
Some amazing lines there. My mother used to love it, until she heard me singing the lyrics she’d not figured-out
“If her daddy’s rich take her out for a meal
If her daddy’s poor just do what you feel” etc etc.
Bonus points are also awarded to Jerry for slipping this in:
“Have a drink, have a drive
Go out and see what you can find”
😯 It’s pretty unbelieveable really!
Oh – I’m pretty sure Silibil n Brainz produced some good material in that area too.
RHCP hit a bit of a home run with “Sir Psycho Sexy” although I’d just say Filthy, rather than sexist. Depends how you read it:
“I got stopped by a lady cop in my automobile
She said, “Get out and spread your legs”
And then she tried to cop a feel
That cop she was all dressed in blue
Was she pretty? Boy I’m tellin’ you
She stuck my butt with her big black stick
I said, “What’s up? Now suck my ****”
Like a ram getting ready to jam the lamb
She whimpered just a little when she felt my hand”
