| Facts: |
| This arrangement was used, note for note, in an episode of Glee aired Jan 24, 2013 and released by Glee on iTunes, without any credit or compensation given to Coulton. It is also highly likely that the audio from Coulton's backing track was also used. (karlap) |
| This was one of the Jonathan Coulton songs featured in the Coverville 500th podcast put up on August 26, 2008. The live show, done in Los Nevas was held on August 15, 2008. (Tim P. Ryan) |

| Song Lyrics: |
L.A. face with the Oakland booty
I like big butts and I cannot lie
You other brothers can't deny
When a girl walks in with an itty-bitty waist
And a round thing in your face
You get sprung, wanna pull up tough
You notice that butt was stuffed
Deep in the jeans she's wearing
I'm hooked and I can't stop staring
Ooh babe, I wanna get wit'cha
And take your pretty picture
My homeboys tried to warn me
But that butt you got makes me so horny
Ooh, Rumplesmoothskin
You say you wanna get in my Benz?
Well, use me, use me
'Cause you ain't that average groupie
I've seen them dancin'
To hell with romancin'
She's sweat, wet,
Got it goin' like a turbo 'Vette
I'm tired of magazines
Sayin' flat butts are the thing
Take the average black man and ask him that
She gotta pack much back
So, fellas (yeah) fellas (yeah)
Has your girlfriend got the butt? (yeah)
Tell her to shake it, shake it
Shake that healthy butt
(L.A. face with the Oakland booty)
Baby got back
(Little in the middle)
Baby got back
(L.A. face with the Oakland booty)
Baby got back
(Little in the middle)
Baby got back
I like 'em round and big
And when I'm throwin' a gig
I just can't help myself, I'm actin' like an animal
Now here's my scandal
I wanna get you home
And whoa, double-up, whoa whoa
I ain't talkin' 'bout Playboy
'Cause silicone parts are made for toys
I want 'em real thick and juicy
So find that juicy double
Jonny C's in trouble
Beggin' for a piece of that bubble
So I'm lookin' at rock videos
Knock-kneed bimbos walkin' like hos
You can have them bimbos
I'll keep my women like Flo Jo
A word to the thick soul sisters, I wanna get with ya
I won't cuss or hit ya
But I gotta be straight when I say I wanna
Till the break of dawn
Baby got it goin' on
A lot of simps won't like this song
'Cause them punks like to hit it and quit it
And I'd rather stay and play
'Cause I'm long, and I'm strong
And I'm down to get the friction on
So, ladies (yeah) ladies (yeah)
If you wanna roll in my Mercedes (yeah)
Then turn around, stick it out
Even white boys got to shout
Baby got back
(L.A. face with the Oakland booty)
Baby got back
(Little in the middle)
Baby got back
(L.A. face with the Oakland booty)
Baby got back
(Little in the middle)
Baby got back
(spoken:)
Actually, when it comes to females,
Cosmo does not have very much to do at all with my selection.
I mean, 36-24-36?
Maybe if she's 5-3
So your girlfriend rolls a Honda,
Playin' workout tapes by Fonda
But Fonda ain't got a motor in the back of her Honda
My anaconda don't want none
Unless you have got buns, hon
You can do side bends or sit-ups,
But please don't lose that butt
Some brothers wanna play that "hard" role
And tell you that the butt ain't gold
So they toss it and they leave it
And I pull up quick to retrieve it
So Cosmo says you're fat
Well, I ain't down with that
'Cause your waist is small and your curves are kickin'
And I'm thinkin' bout stickin'
To the beanpole dames in the magazines:
You ain't it, Miss Thing
Give me a sister; I can't resist her
Red beans and rice didn't miss her
Some knucklehead tried to dis
'Cause his girls are on my list
He had game but he chose to hit 'em
And I pull up quick to get wit 'em
So ladies (yeah) if the butt is round (yeah)
And you want a triple-X throw down
Dial 1-900-JONNYC
And kick them nasty thoughts
(L.A. face with the Oakland booty)
Baby got back
(Little in the middle)
Baby got back
(L.A. face with the Oakland booty)
Baby got back
(Little in the middle)
Baby got back

fiogf49gjkf0d I knew JoCo put it to different music when I filled out the page. But it's still a parody. I could never decide who to credit. In the old days, Coulton would be credited with a 'unique arrangement' of an existing song (arrangement in this case meaning 'rewriting'), but there's no 'arranged by' on the page so I added one in this instance. Hopefully this will satisfy everyone.
I actually didn't ask for an 'arrangement' credit when the song pages were redone thinking I would rarely use it. This is one of those rare times.

fiogf49gjkf0d Kahn Man is right. It should read music by Jonathan Coulton.

The Kahn Man:
Music By: Jonathan Coulton
Sir Mix A Lot Did not Write The Music It Was Jonathan Coulton Who Did It. He Just Kept The Lyrics To It.
