to well-known songs. Ok, not always “_dirty_” but _naughty_. It wouldn’t be a problem, except it seems whenever I do it, I forget the original lyrics. An example:

> [@](#):
>
> Frosty the snowman  
> Was the biggest dealer in town  
> He had lots of dope and lots of coke  
> And a joint for everyone  
> Frosty the snowman  
> Is serving twenty years  
> He was caught with a gram  
> And his favourite madam  
> While pimping off some queers  
> There must have been some cocaine  
> In that little glass tube he found  
> For when he shoved it up his nose  
> He began to dance around…

Am I the only person who does this?

No, I do this a lot, especially if other people are singing a song I don’t know (which happens often, since I’m a pretentious ass and stopped listening to any non-NPR radio a long time ago). Just did this at my sister’s New Year’s party. Helped that I was drunk, and I will neither confirm nor deny I was stoned.

I do this almost non stop. Every single song has a part that something vulgar can be inserted into it and my brain loves this game. Loves it.

All the time. I love to change a line or two and make a song vulgar.

For instance, [Things that never cross a man’s mind](http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/kelliepickler/thingsthatnevercrossamansmind.html) by Kelly Pickler:

> [@](#):
>
> That joke is too dirty  
> This steak is too thick  
> Ain’t no way in the world I have a 10 inch dick

Maybe I will do my version of _Before She Cheats_ later.

I do this to music I dislike.  
My wife listens to country music which I just loathe so I always change the lyrics.  
A recent one I remember changed the lyrics from:  
“She left the suds in the bucket and the clothes hanging on the line”  
to:  
“She left some crud in the bucket which came out of her behind”

The last one made me laugh. It’s not limited to Christmas carols for me either, just with another thread titled about Frosty, that one is stuck in my head. Honestly, I feel badly, because my kids don’t know the lyrics to that song – I cannot remember the real lyrics!

Of course, there’s always:

> My vagina has a second name  
> It’s P U S S Y

> Cuz my vagina tastes so good

and:

That reminds me of how me and my brother used to sing a classic:

He knows when your awake,  
He knows when you’ve been bad or good

I enjoy this game, but even better is using extant lyrics and making them dirty with a nudge and a wink. My favorite Beltaine song\* is “Joy to the World”

Joy to the world, the Lord is come! 😉  
Let earth receive her King;  
Let every heart prepare Him room,  
And heaven and nature sing,  
And heaven and nature sing,  
And heaven, and heaven, and nature sing.

And, for a close second, “Oh Come, All Ye Faithful”, of course.

The only drawback is that it’s really, really hard to sit through Christmas Mass with my mother-in-law and not gigglesnort my way straight to hell.

\*Beltaine is a ribald nature “fertility” festival in my neck of the woods, when we celebrate spring and bunnies and fucking your brains out, and suppose that the gods and the goddesses are ruttin’ right along with us

Have you noticed that you can’t make AC/DC songs any dirtier? Just more explicit.

And I’ve tried.

Might I suggest for your perusal, the Battle Hymn of the Republic, Tea-style? 😃 (Why yes, the lyrics _are_ changed, but I am proud of the driver’s seat on the bus I’m getting for this one…)  
Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord!  
He hath trampled out the vintage in his “grapes of wrath” was stored  
He hath loosed the fateful lightning of his terrible swift sword  
The Lord hath come too soon!  
Premature ejaculation  
Premature ejaculation  
Premature ejaculation  
The Lord hath come too soon!

ETA: Just don’t ask me what happens to Jesus Loves Me - 'cause I’m pretty sure you already know.

Very often. Sometimes it’s just a line or two, as with the 80s remake of ‘Puttin on the Ritz’, in which that line became:  
_suckin’ on her tits.  
Dressed up like a million dollar trouper,  
hoping he can slip it in her pooper,  
Super Duper!_

Wait, you can _understand_ their lyrics?!? :dubious:

You know, I have noticed that it is mostly songs that I find annoying that I do this to, hmmm. Of course, in our house, it is commonplace to hear “read a book” in the middle of a song – that is the standard “I don’t know the lyrics, so I’ma just make shit up” line at our house.

Oh, and for your consideration, Rudolph the Small-Dicked Porn Star:

I do this all the time, but pretty much only for the hook or title lines to songs.

For example:

Elton John: “Don’t let your son go down on me.”

Backstreet Boys: “I want a three way.”

Led Zeppelin: “Your wife is gonna come.”

Some of these are HI-larious.

And AC/DC’s (well, Bon Scott’s) lyrics are simply divine:
