The Lyrics

We all know what being in a (male) band really is about, don't we?
Trash looks, that's true
But we sure know what we do wanna do
Crap car, flat tire
We don't have enough to hire
But we're hangin' 'round those girls with a tan
Cos every babe's crazy for our poontang band

Late night, rusty truck
And our credit's; not a single buck
At-ti-tude, we got
When we're on tour we're gonna get a lot
Girls come driving in from Azerbaijan
And all of them crazy for our poontang band

Can you, dig that
we don't worry cos our rep is phat
Beach shades, flip flops
Togas on, while flippin' the cops
We're so high up that we might never land
But every babe's fallin' for our poontang band
© Peter Andersson. Much cleaner than you expected, huh? :-)

Ok, I feel really silly for asking this, but what does poontang mean?

Yep, much cleaner (and less hairy) than I was expecting ;-)

Ashkicksass: I learned the word poontang from one of Malcolm Higgins parodies about the time when whatfreaks was reopened, that information alone should give you an idea. ;-)

BTW, here's the URL to that song for those who wanna get in deeper on the subject:

Much adored porn flick (that I haven't seen, but have heard of, thanks to perverted boyfriends) "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Poon."

A, A, SM and JD: Thanx.

Arwen: "Perverted boyfriends", is there any other kind worth having? As for the "Indiana Jones" film I'm not sure such a movie exists. Maybe it does, but making up poontang typ parody titles for big hit movies is kind of a kin hobby to what we are doing here. I stumbled across a site listing once and I especially remember "Forest Hump" and "Shaving Ryan's privates".

K1...I don't know how I feel about you being such an expert on porn flicks that you'd feel comfortable questioning a specific title's existance. I'm a movie FREAK...but if someone said, "I love the movie 'White Daisies, Red Roses,' I wouldn't assume that it didn't exist just because I hadn't heard of it.

Anyway...the guy who told me about it...swore that he had seen it...so...if you don't trust him...I guess you don't have to. I don't care enough about his porn habit, or the porn industry to defend his claim.

Arwen: LOL! You don't really think that of me, do you?

WHAT!?! You DO? Then let me clarify: I used Google for a quick search to see if "Indiana Jones and the temple of Poon" really existed but didn't find anything exsept what I said above. It's not like that industry is bad at advertising their goods so I draw the conclusion that it didn't. Though I might be wrong, had I spent more time on searching I might have found that it was real.

Could have swore I'd commented on this on before. Stu already picked out the "Azerbaijan" part. Never heard of those movies you mentioned either, and yes, you kept it clean.~

Red Ant: I've done this song three times, you might have commented on one of the other two, probably "Undead Man" which is an old SOTM entry. (The third one is called "Baseball Fans").
