The Offspring - Pretty Fly (For A White Guy) - With Lyrics

[@lusitanus6504]

I was in highschool when I heard this song. I am 42 and only now with the lyrics do I understand a lot of the words!

[@katiebea9258]

TODAY is, at 67 yrs old, the first time I ever heard this (evidently a) CLASSIC. My kid is using this as his "walk-in" for his first boxing match.

[@flexyco]

I'm happy for you!

[@Boating2025]

Hey, old man , Can we get an update?

[@katiebea9258]

@Welcome-To-Sin-City HE tore the kid from Spokane Boxing to pieces and ref ended it 12 seconds to go in 3rd. Kid looked like it was bare knuckle vs amateur 12? OUNCE. The opponent was tough, game, pugilist that wouldn't quit. Was hammered so bad, he was turning his back to avoid the punches by end of 2nd though. Took horrendous punishment and their corner ought to have thrown the towel.

[@Boating2025]

@@katiebea9258 Nice. Sounds like it was an awesome and fun gig!

[@katiebea9258]

@Welcome-To-Sin-City lot of good gloved fights and one bare-knuckle, between what looked an old school Viking and a tat-covered, wannabe Gangsta. The Viking took him apart and the ending technical, standing knockout sounded like a sledge hitting a pumpkin. Could hear it squish five rows up and 20 yards back in the County Fair conference building.

[@sundaetheguitar]

I thought it was "you can always go and regulate" which kinda fits with the song

[@river9289]

TBH I like “grow up and get paid” way more then “go on Ricki lake” so much so that ever since I read this comment I’ve started singing it that way…

[@FistandFootMartialArts]

"... but in his mind he's the latest trip..." I always thought it was "latest sh* t". lol BIG THANKS!!!!!

So don't debate player straight you know he doesn't get it anyway gonna play the field, and keep it real For you no way for you no way So if you don't rate, just overcompensate At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lake

[@xSwirLY13x]

I believe in the beginning he is saying, "Montag, lieben, lachen, loben." That should mean "Monday, laugh, love, praise." if I recall my horrific German correctly....

[@SaintAdjacent]

It means nothing as it was made up by Def Leppard its "Gunter Glieben Glouten Globen"

[@cannibalisticrequiem]

@@SaintAdjacent Yeah, it's pretty obvious that he's not saying "Montag", as that sounds way different from "Gunter". Like, I only ever took German for one semester at my local community college and I can tell the voice isn't saying "Montag". Even my German professor who was born and raised in the country confirmed that the chant used at the beginning of 'Rock of Ages' the song, was nonsensical gibberish. On an unrelated, but equally funny note- My German professor was a child when he heard the broadcast of JFK's infamous "Ich bin ein Berliner" speech and confirmed that the then president *did* in fact say what translates to "I am a jelly doughnut/pastry", because of his thick Boston accent. He explained that what people still get hung up on is the "ein", whether it could've been left out or not, but it's the pronunciation of the word Berliner that caused that slip up. JFK pronounced it "Ber-LINE-r" which is "jelly doughnut in many parts of Germany, but the proper pronunciation of "Berlin citizen" is "Ber-LIN-er", basically how you would say "Berlin". But the Germans didn't care since JFK was so beloved by everyone at the time, and like so many countries where English is not the primary language, they were happy that the American actually bothered to try speaking the native tongue rather than demanding everyone bend to him and accommodate him by speaking fluent English. There's similar confusion, at least among foreigners with "Vien"/"Vein", where many assume "Vien" means "citizen of Vienna", but "Vien" is actually "Wine" as in the drink. (Unless I got those backwards, which I may have since it's been ten years since I last looked at a German textbook. 😥) My point is that there are many words in German that are considered to have two meanings just based on pronunciation. (Like how the spelling of "Four" in Japanese Kanji, is similar to the spelling of "Death" in Kanji.)

[@isa1992m]

the german part means love, laugh, praise ....

God (the real one) is singing this song to my best friend, in the next room.

[@VEHICLEFAN5500]

is a satirical song about a white teenage boy who desperately tries to adopt stereotypes associated with being a "cool" young person. The narrator makes fun of the boy's attempts to fit in by buying Vanilla Ice albums instead of Ice Cube, getting multiple piercings and tattoos, and trying to speak Spanish. The song's chorus is an ironic acknowledgement that despite the boy's efforts, he will never be considered 'cool' by the people he idolizes. The song serves as an amusing commentary on the absurd nature of trying to keep up with trends in order to seem cool, as well as the limitations of only being able to identify with one's own culture.
