LOL! When I worked at Building #19 in Weymouth I found a 12 inch single of this song, I've been searching Ebay for years trying to find it. I think I gave it away, kind of wish I hadn't |

The man goes to the bar and meets a girl. The girl takes a liking to him. They start to get closer and when he gets to the close dancing stage of the night, he gets a nasty fright. Apparently he has picked up a transvestite. By then it is too late, and the transvestite is dominant and aggressive and won't let him go. The subject tries to make excuses to get out of having to go. The video shows a number transvestites in the bar used body language to convey threats of physical violence should he try to reject the offer of sex. The subject then tried to make excuses and evade the transvestite, but he does end up (submissively) going off in a car with the transvestite. The Spacial Verb/ Channel Z version of the video and song exclude gang mentality, and show only the one transvestite as being aggressive and violent, but in this version the bar is exclusively full of transvestites (apart from staff and band). (making the humour more obvious .. its absurd that a man would mistake that place as good place to meet normal females ). Its dark humour, with a similar (but not exactly the same) situation used for comedy in various movies such as Police Academy. [edit] Explanation of the song The chorus is the 8 words of the title. The chorus is repeated many times, including during verses. There are three verses. The first verse is the most like a song, but its close to being spoken word. This the attempt to clarify the meaning of title, which is about the phases in meeting someone at a dance club with the view for initiating passionate dancing (if not sex). Well the Shoop Shoop stands for the mood you're in And the Diddy Wop means let the fun begin It's a feeling gonna set your senses reeling and you can't sit still Cumma Cumma mean what you thought, That's right And the Wang Dang gonna get you through the night time Baby there's a right time if you wanna lose control The definitions as provided by the video (which may be approximate to the authors original meanings) seem to be * Shoop Shoop—singing and dancing at a distance * Diddy Wop—drinking together * Cumma Cumma—dancing together, with some touching... * Wang Dang—close dancing The second verse relates an actual experience meeting a girl .. and reverts to spoken word. describing the 4 phases as it happened with this girl. It transpires that the he was shocked by the Cumma Cumma and couldn't describe the Wang Dang, and the video explains that this is because the subject has unknowingly met a transvestite. The third verse is spoken word and are the words of the subject that match the actions of the people shown in the video. The subject changes from trying to outright reject his partner, to trying to delay, distract , and then trying excuses to make the transvestite feel bad about being pushy. ("What sort of girl do you think I am ?") .. with the video showing them going off together, as if they were going somewhere private to have sex. The use of the word "girl" in the third verse is the only element in the lyrics that tells you the girl he approached and danced with must be a transvestite." |
