I've decided the world is insane

I was listening to Benny Goodman play Sing Sing Sing. In the comments it explained that while Goodman played it as an instrumental, Louis Prima wrote it with lyrics.

 

I went looking for the lyrics.

 

I found this on metrolyrics.

 

Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:

Sing, sing, sing, sing
Everybody start to sing
La dee da, ho, ho, ho
Now you're singing with a swing

Sing, sing, sing, sing
Everybody start to sing
La dee da, ho, ho, ho
Now you're singing with a swing

And when the music goes around
Everybody's goes to town
But here's something you should know
Ho ho baby ho ho ho

Sing, sing, sing, sing
Everybody start to sing
La dee da, ho, ho, ho
Now you're singing with a swing

And when the music goes around
Everybody's goes to town
But here's something you should know
Ho ho baby ho ho ho

 

 

The best that I can figure out, the EXPLICIT LYRICS is HO HO HO.

 

You know - like Santa Claus - ho ho ho.1336875898_DroopyDawg.jpg.bb372421c1cc5c0e7495f904c7ca470d.jpg

The word "explicit" is an adjective typically used in conjunction with words such as "gore", "violence", "sex", etc. to relay specificity.

In this case, it would mean that the language in the lyrics has been "stated clearly...leaving no room for confusion or doubt." ;)

You can't go by the dictionary anymore.

People have decided that explicit means the same as adult.

 

Adult used to mean no longer a child.

 

Now it means dirty, obscene, pornographic. "Adult movie". "Adult literature".

Which is pretty ironic because the young kids across the street have potty mouths that would make an adult blush.

I was talking to some younger relatives, teens and twenties, at a reunion.  I mentioned I had shot my wad at the racetrack and got some giggles and embarrassed looks in return.  I had to explain it was a firearm term for spending all my money.

 

Indeed.
