  • The bigger the cushion, the sweeter the pushin'
    That's what I said
    The looser the waistband, the deeper the quicksand
    Or, so I've read.
    My baby fits me like a flesh tuxedo
    I love to sink her with my pink torpedo.

    Big bottom
    Big bottom
    Talk about bum cakes
    My gal's got 'em.
    Big bottom
    Drive me out of my mind.
    How can I leave this behind?

    I saw her on Monday, twas my lucky bun day
    You know what I mean.
    I love her each weekday, each velvety cheek day
    You know what I mean.
    My love gun's loaded and she's in my sights
    Big game's waiting there inside her tights.

    Big bottom
    Big bottom
    Talk about mud flaps
    My gal's got 'em.
    Big bottom
    Drive me out of my mind.
    How can I leave this behind? Writer/s: CHRISTOPHER GUEST, HARRY SHEARER, MICHAEL MC KEAN, ROB REINER

    What a great line!
  • Axeman from Melbourne, AustraliaThe riff is probably ripped off Cold Gin by KISS also!
  • Thomas from Somerville, AlThis song turned me on to Spinal Tap. I remember being at a friends house and just happened to catch the lyric "talk about mud flaps, my girls gottem" and had him to shut up and start the song over. I played it the next day at the radio station where I worked and got a butt chewing from the program director.
  • Robert from San Francisco, Ca 'This is Spinal Tap' is included in Roger Ebert's '100 Greatest Movies'.

  • Jen from Ontario, Canadai love is spinal tap its soooo... funni
  • Jay from Atlanta, GaThis was written on the glove box of Nigel Tufnel's Astin-Martin. They recorded it with Dolby Monosynthetic rhythms. It was originaly released as a b-side to Flower People, but Tufnel convinced the band to re-tool it and release it as a single. 9 Inch Nails did a cover version on their '97 tour. I saw them at the Kennedy arena in Warsaw. Rockin' show.
  • James from Enid, Okthe cold sores are because of a cut scene where they all find out they have slept with the same groupie and have herpes.
