Subject: Collaborative Challenge: Lyrics to Frankie Smith's Double Dutch Bus.
Written By: Foo Bar on 03/31/05 at 12:30 am
I last made an attempt to decipher the rap portion of this song about 3 years ago. Spent some google time, and the best *anybody* had come up with in 25 years was woefully incomplete.
Now it's your turn. Starts about 3:00ish in the 5:30 mixes of the track. Your mixage may vary. But you *ALL* know what I'm talking about. If you've got the album, there's a track called "Slizang Thizang" that gives you the right idea. There are real words in the rap to Double Dutch Bus, bzut izza lizzotta trizzouble fizziguring thizam izzout.
You can start deciphering it from "Plizay Dizouble Dizzutch == Play Double Dutch"
From "Double Dutch" (subtly different mix from "Double Dutch Bus", features female singer singing how "children will be children if you let them", and that "everybody's doin' it". Lyrics are entirely about the rope game.)
(lead) ?Nizzo? ?pliz?za ?wtf? plizay-DIZouble-DIZzutch ?lizzay? my-GIZzirl!
(female) ?ahsawizza?
repeat 2x.
From "Double Dutch Bus" (the one everyone's heard, with the talk about the bus fare, trans-pass, and that's the way his money's past)
Hizzey Gizzirls!

Iz okizza?

Iz okizza?
Iz alrizight nizzow, wizze, wilz??(AAAAAAAAUGH! My brain melts around here.!)
)Then we're back to English for a bit, and then a list of names.)
Bip, Bop, Bam,
Allakazham,
But only if you're grovvin' with a double dutch man.
Put on your skates,
Don't forget your rope,
'Cause I know I'm gonna see you at my double dutch ?show?
Rebecca, Lolita, ?Fashawn? and Dawn,
Every time you do the Double Dutch you really turn it on!
Bilzarbra, Milzary, Bilzetty, ??ilzam, (Barbara, Mary, Betty, who?! :)
Tilzommy, Tilzerrance, Bilzobby that's my man! (Tommy, Terrance, Bobby)
C'mon - get on - the double dutch bus... (The double dutch bus!)
