Hey, everyone, and welcome to this week's episode of Plumbing the Death Star, where we ask the important questions like, if it wasn't Shaggy, who was it?

Jackson, let's do the opening part together. Okay, okay. Yo, man. Yo. Open up, man. Yeah, what do you want, man? My girl just caught me. You let her catch you?

I don't know how I let this happen. With who? The girl next door, you know. Man, I don't know what to do. Say it, what? Wait. Wait, that's you. We've cooked it already.

We've cooked it already. All right. That's two lines. You got to do it. Go from the girl next door, you know. The girl next door, you know. No, then you you gotta say, man, I don't know what to do Man, I don't know what to do Say it wasn't you

Alright He kind of says, alright Alright Obviously, it seems like from the opening lyrics To reggae artist Shaggy's Song, It Wasn't Me That Shaggy did song, It Wasn't Me, that Shaggy did it. But that's not correct.

It's hearsay. We're interpreting the lyrics wrong if that's the conclusion we come to. So the first important thing to note on this song from 1999, hit song, everyone, it was top of the charts. Yeah, of course. And rightfully so. Only credited is Shaggy, but the bulk of the singing and, in fact, the bulk of the describing the things that were or weren't done is the featured artist Rick Rock. Okay, so.

So we have a name, Rick Rock. But who is Rick Rock? Who is Rick Rock? No one can answer that. That's not a real name. Rick Rock? I found his Wikipedia page. Yeah, me too. Rick Rock, real name rick rock i found his wikipedia page yeah me too

rick rock real name rick no hang on is rick rock his real name rick rock real name ricardo thomas ricardo george dukent is what i've got over here he's a founding member of former rap group the cosmic slop shop and the federation and which he started with fellow rapper Dooney Baby. He's regarded as a pioneer of the hip-hop genre, heefy, or a hyphy? I don't know. Hyphy, hyphy, hyphy. Well, there you go.

That is weird. No, you know what? You're describing the hyphy producer. He's a beatmaker called Rick Rock. Lucky you had me on for this topic, or you guys would have been lost. Thank goodness. Otherwise, I would have been giving some incorrect Rick Rock information. That's Rick Rock spelt r-i-c-k-r-o-c-k whereas the rickrock on shaggy's

it wasn't me is spelt r-i-k-r-o-k and uh excuse me this highlights a lot of problems before we even get into the song yeah if it's that easy to credit the wrong rick rock as the as the man who did it the man who in what he was trying to it wasn't me he's way out of a situation then is it not that much to extend that it may not have even been someone called rick rock and shaggy could simply be friends with someone else yeah absolutely we don't know that this is the correct rick rock this song is the king of misinformation because everyone always remembers honey came in and she caught me red-handed creeping with the girl next door and everyone's like shaggy you piece of shit but it's not even shaggy it's not even shaggy is it though because rick rock i guess that one of the i don't know is i guess the chorus is

but she caught me on the counter and then shaggy says it wasn't me and then rick rock says saw me banging on the sofa it wasn't me so and then Rick Rock says, saw me banging on the sofa. It wasn't me. And then that continues for eight more lines where Rick Rock describes scenarios that he did and then Shaggy said, well, I didn't do that. So in a way, this song is pointless because it's just one guy describing something he did and then Shaggy saying, you did that, not me.

It's crazy. That's like one of you coming to me and being like, hey, cheated on my wife and i'm like i didn't i didn't cheat on your wife you're like i yeah i know that's that's not why i wasn't even married to her she's not even my wife that's not why i came what are you talking about yeah i don't that's crazy and like i've heard this song a hundred times i can't tell you a single line that Shaggy says beyond the words, it wasn't and me. Well, let's explore the first verse. Honey came in and she caught me red-handed,

creeping with the girl next door. That's the fucking chorus. That's the chorus. That's Rick Rock. I thought we said the chorus was, but she caught me on the counter. That's the pre-chorus. Oh, my fucking Lord. So the verse is Shaggy.

And if you want to do it like Shaggy, a lot of his songs when he comes in, I feel like everyone just kind of goes like, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop, bop. But what he actually says is, how you can grant your woman access to your villa, trespass her in a witness while you cling to your pillow. You better watch your back

before she turned into a killer let's review the situation that you're caught up in her to be a true player you have to know how to play if she stay a night convince her to say a day she never admit to a word when she say and if she claims uh you tell her, baby, no way. Okay. Let's explore this. It's gaslighting. He's just like, gaslight your wife. Yeah. So is this song a conversation between Rick Rock and Shaggy? It is. Ultimately, the whole conversation.

Rick Rock is, in spite of being, I think, older than Shaggy, Rick Rock was born in 1972. Let's find out how old Shaggy is. Shaggy, four years older than Rick Rock. Let's find out how old Shaggy is. Shaggy was, oh, Shaggy four years, four years older than Rick Rock. So this checks out. He's going to his slightly older friend, Shaggy, for advice,

having allowed his wife to enter the room that he was cheating on her in. I would like to explore the chorus, the first chorus. Honey came in and she caught me red-handed, creeping with the girl next door. Picture this, we were both butt naked, banging on the bathroom floor. I just love that he's like, picture this, like not she was naked,

we were both butt naked, Shaggy. Picture me naked, Shaggy. Picture that, Shaggy, you're not going to believe this. We're both butt naked on the bathroom floor, a strange place to have sex. But not the only place that they have sex. Well, that's true. There's a lot to unpack because not only, and I think we're going to naturally get to this anyway,

but not only is he like, here's what happened, it's also describing a lot of events that if the wife just walked in once, why didn't they stop? Yeah, I'm confused by the final line. She never took her eyes off me. How long was she there for? Well, because she saw him banging on the counter. Oh, no, sorry.

She got me on the counter. She saw him banging on the sofa. It wasn't me. She even saw him have her in the shower. She even caught me on camera. Well, that's intense. That feels like that Rick Rock's wife or partner is trying to build up a case. Is there no fault divorce in america

is rick rock trying to build up a case his rick rock's wife sorry trying to build up a case so that she can eventually divorce rick rock which would be fair another thing about rick rock i just discovered is that there's a quote from him where he says one day i was listening to baby faces tender lover album and i remember thinking I could probably be a songwriter. And that's great. What a great beginning. Man, I could probably do that. Listen to a song.

Yeah, I could give it a go. He's also most famous for this appearance. So this was the height of Rick Rock's career. And I think that's pretty cool. I mean, this song is admittedly fucking enormous. Yeah, it's a good peak, but it's still his peak. He also was on the shaggy song bonafide girl seven years later seven years yeah a lot of time it's nice that they stayed friends

in that time through this terrible time in rick rock's life where he got caught on the sofa okay so where it wasn't me was a number one hit all across the world um bonafide girl in 2007 reached a peak position of 71 in germany we we could all be so lucky yeah they really captured that light eating a bottle let's explore these couple of lines she saw the marks on my shoulder wasn't me heard the words that i told her wasn't me heard the screams get louder it wasn't me she stayed until it was over i don't know what this is describing screams get louder and marks on my shoulder could be sex words that i told her is that is he talking about like talking dirty and stayed until it was over does that mean that rick rock's wife watched the entire lovemaking spectacular i think definitely Is that the takeaway here?

I feel like this also could... Feels pretty murdery. Yeah, I was thinking it's a little bit murdery. Mark's on my shoulder. Is that like scratches from the passionate lovemaking? Yeah, I'm confused. I'm intrigued. The first two lines of the chorus,

it sounds like he's doing, like, home renovations. She caught me on the counter. She saw me banging on the sofa. I even had a... Yeah. Very funny if we discover that it wasn't me by Shaggy, it's actually just about home renovation. Let's read it with that in mind.

The her that is in this, like they uh had her in the shower is it let's pretend it's a hammer okay yeah great caught me in the shower caught me on the counter with a hammer it wasn't yep yep saw me banging on the sofa with a hammer that makes sense i mean it doesn't because you would never do that that's not the function of a hammer but still i even had her in the shower the hammer fixing yeah yeah fixing plumbing yeah she even caught me on camera now why if if rick rock is talking about a hammer why is shaggy saying it wasn't him is he like i am not the hammer that is the topic or the feature of this verse i am not a a hammer. Is he just saying, like, this is what you should say to your wife,

but all he offers is the same thing eight times? Like, it wasn't me. It wasn't me. It wasn't me. Yeah, I didn't do it. You already said that, Shaggy. I renovated the house, and she hates what I've done with the place, and Shaggy's like, just say it wasn't you.

Well, maybe, like, she hates what's happened to the place, and Shaggy's like just say it wasn't you i well maybe like she hates what's happened to the place and shaggy is trying to get away from any responsibility like he helped he was sort of right it was a maze i was actually i wasn't even there when when rick rock was renovating the house i was elsewhere maybe we've misinterpreted this entirely and shaggy is talking to the wife of rick rock and rick rock is on the phone calling Shaggy and Shaggy's got him on speakerphone. And the wife is looking at Shaggy with all of these claims and Shaggy's saying, it wasn't me. It wasn't me. It wasn't me.

I don't know. Yeah, I'm not. Why is Shaggy hanging out with Rick Rock's wife? That's what I want to know. And who is Rick Rock in this situation? Because if Shaggy didn't do it who did we don't know who who did nor do we know what did they do well okay so the opening the opening piece of dialogue like the opening skit it doesn't ever explicitly say i cheated on my wife

open up my girl just caught me doesn't necessarily say what i don't know how i let this happen with who the girl next door but still there's nothing explicitly sexual happening i don't know what to do say it wasn't you all right all right so there's two a line well two lines in this that i feel are going to be hard to explain in a non-sexual fashion i'm listening picture this we were both butt naked banging on the bathroom floor. That's so easy. Okay. It's a renovation.

It gets dusty. And wet in the bathroom too. Yeah, exactly. Put those two things together, sludge. Yeah, exactly. You don't want that on your clothes. And I have to assume that Shaggy and Rick Rock and even Rick Rock's wife, they own a lot of nice clothes. Maybe not a lot of like painting overalls or whatever.

So as a way around that they got butt naked and it's it's like an amusing scenario which is why rick rock says picture this we were both butt naked banging on the bathroom floor like imagine that this is what we've come to wait my god yes that works but i think that our murder situation may actually come into play. The start of verse one from Shaggy. So I'm just going to turn this into not Shaggy speak. Oh, no, do the patois. Come on. Why did you give your woman access to your villa?

Trespass and a witness, all the hackling on the pillow. You better watch your back before she turned into a killer. Best review the situation that you caught up in her. Well, yeah, so maybe Shaggy is saying, Rick Rock, like, this woman, the girl next door that you've become involved with, she has a past and she will kill you. Also, presumably you can't cheat on your- Like, your wife will have access to your villa.

Yeah, that is true. Well, see- Like, your wife will have access to your villa. Yeah. That is true. Well, see- No, no, no, no. Because, no, you don't let your wife, like, even know about the villa. You know what I mean? Obviously, you guys aren't true players, as Shaggy suggests. You have your house, and your wife lives at the house. She lives comfortably.

But you put a little money aside. You get yourself a villa. So, you've got a main house and a villa she's got a main house and a side villa and a main wife and a side chick that's right and and maybe this is just the patois of shaggy but what if these are instructions on how you can grant your woman access to your villa so that's the title how you can grant your woman access to your villa you got a trespass and witness all the hackling on your pillow. What's with the hackling on the pillow?

While you cling to your pillow is what I've got. Trespasser and witness while you cling to your pillow. It depends. I'm on genius.com right now, and there's a few amazing suggestions of what some of Shaggy's lines mean. And they give him way more credit than I think your average you know your average person would give shaggy say for the line if she say a night convince her say a day shaggy suggests he not only deny everything but insist that it is the opposite of what she says or believes it to be possibly referencing william shakespeare's the taming of the shrew in which a man insists to

his wife that the sun is the moon in order to make her more obedient and soft-spoken. Yeah, somehow I suspect. I mean, look, hey, I don't want to make any claims, but somehow I suspect that's not what's going on here. Before you claim that Shaggy is not the thespian that this is suggesting he is, you should know that his most recent line of work is performing as Sebastian in a live version of The Little Mermaid. That rules.

in a live version of The Little Mermaid. That rules. And if you look at Disney World's Christmas celebrations from last year, you can see him and Sting perform a series of reggae-tinged Christmas classics in front of the castle at Disney World. It's on Disney+. Highly recommend it.

That's amazing. I would never have guessed that's where Shaggy ended up. I'm coming back around to the murder theory because of the next Shaggy verse. Oh, yeah. Rick Rock is gonna die. Makes you no say that you really no right for vex. Sorry, what?

Makes you no say that you really no right for vex. I never use she, see, see ya make the gigolo flex. A smaddy Elsa favor you in a decomplex. So smaddy means smaddy is patois for somebody. Okay. Okay, great. So basically that line, that line means like you should say that it was your evil twin fucking the girl. Because a smaddy.

I see. So, say somebody who looks like you in a decomplex. Oh, I see. Yeah, okay, fantastic. That's amazing. And then someone's commented on the description of that line. So, shouts to jrobking29. He just says, this is crazy, but it makes sense.

j-rob king 29 he just says this is crazy but it makes sense wait till they get a load of this episode quick pun your answer know how fair talk but if she pack a gun you know you better run fast so i think maybe actually shaggy's just warning rick rock that like like she will shoot you yeah she might she might shoot you i think he's, it's a risk. Just be careful. So, Anubis the Jackal, he comments here, the phrase, hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, comes to mind here. If she finds out that he's been cheating, there's no telling how she might react.

If she is packing heat, it's entirely possible that she'll quite literally shoot back at him. 11 upvotes. So, okay. So, the situation situation seems to be this is one interpretation i think this is the main interpretation rick rock has been caught red-handed sleeping with another woman shaggy is like your wife may kill you if she finds out that's what i'm nervous about let's lie to her i don't think that it's it's trying to protect a fellow player i think he's worried about rick rock's well-being he's he's lost he's lost friends to similar situations in the past yeah yeah he wants to protect his current best friend that's how the other rick

rock died and shaggy's like i've been reading taming of the shrew recently so i've got some great suggestions i but i it's funny because shaggy's suggestions are just not good pretend it was your evil twin just say you didn't do it well but you know who else thinks shaggy's um suggestions are no good rick rock himself because if you keep scrolling down to the bridge when rick rock says wanna tell her that i'm sorry for the pain i've caused i've been listening to your reason it makes no sense at all people tell her that i'm sorry for the pain of course you may think that you're a player but you're completely lost that's why he sings that's why i sing but but then you do the chorus again maybe he just wants to reiterate to shaggy like the situation to try to be like this

is the reality of a shaggy honey came in and caught me red-handed creeping with the girl next door i have a wild theory that i think lines up okay what if rick rock and shaggy are in fact the evil twin that shaggy was describing but shaggy is the evil twin of rick rock oh my god it's like what if it's a me myself and irene situation shaggy's been me myself and irene so the opening conversation it's not say between me and levens it's yo man and then like he turns to the left yo and then he turns to the right open up man oh no shaggy's in trouble well no so rick rock is the good version and shaggy's in trouble. Well, no. So Rick Rock is the good version and Shaggy's the bad version. Okay.

Yeah, sure. Sure. So, but so when Shaggy says, say it was your evil twin. He's like, say it was me. Yeah. No, but that can't make sense. That can't make sense because Shaggy the whole time is saying it wasn't him. If it's not Shaggy, who is it?

Here's an interesting line though. Gonna tell her that i'm sorry for all the pain i've caused i've been listening to your reasoning it makes no sense at all we should tell her that i'm sorry why is rickrock including shaggy in the apology i don't understand shaggy's involvement is baffling in this narrative well what if when he says say it was like an evil twin or whatever he isn't actually talking about a split personality, which is what they may have. But instead Shaggy's like, blame someone else. And Rick Rock's like, no, it was you.

And he's like, wasn't me. Wasn't me. Wasn't me. But Shaggy, it was you. So you're saying that if it wasn't Shaggy, who was it? It was Shaggy. Yeah. So, because people are often like, it wasn't Shaggy.

It's Rick Rock. Listen to the song properly. But no, listen to the like, it wasn't Shaggy, it's Rick Rock, listen to the song properly. But no, listen to the song properly. It was Shaggy. It was Shaggy Theory from Dooja. Guys, I found some incredible insight on Genius.com that I have to share. So, on the bridge that we just described, this is from Despair and Knuckles, possibly the saddest Sonic fan in the world. Rick Rock ultimately rejects Shaggy's advice, opting to tell his wife the truth and apologize instead of constantly denying everything despite mounting evidence. Which is fair enough.

I guess you understand the final context of the song. Then later we have this has 66 upvotes. So, you know, this is a very informed opinion. On the final instance of the lines, picture this, we were both butt naked, banging on the bathroom floor, we have from Duke London, very difficult to do as your knees are in extreme danger.

You need to at least have a rug down on the floor or some knee pads, especially if it's ceramic tile. Although to be fair, clean up is extremely simple. This maniac wants to put a rug in a bathroom. Or, like, added lines in which Rick Rock details putting on knee pads. We're both butt naked, except for my knee pads fucking on the bathroom floor. Oh, bro. Clean up was easy.

Clean up was easy easy thanks for letting us know rick rock i'm still so confused by that we should tell her that i'm sorry that's like if i was like i don't know hey i want to get back at somebody and you were like you should shoot them and i was like no like it's just it's just, and then somehow I involved, just because you suggested something, I'm like, you're part of it now. It implies to me that Shaggy is not just like an outside person that Rick Rock's come to for help, that he is somehow implicitly involved in the scenario,

but how I can't imagine. Rick Rock fucked Shaggy. And now a quick word from our sponsors. Also, hey Plumbing is sweet as a summer breeze and all But did you know that we produce at least 8 other podcasts? Maybe you wish we'd stop talking about superheroes And Star Wars and dog dicks

And instead sort out which kind of frog is the superior frog Or what would be the best kind of metal to be crushed under If this sounds like you Then why not head to sanspantsradio.com And search for Shut Up A Second A nonsense podcast that's far better than it has any right to be If this sounds like you, then why not head to sanspantsradio.com and search for Shut Up A Second, a nonsense podcast that's far better than it has any right to be. Well, what if we interpret the we in We Were Both Butt Naked Banging on the Bathroom Floor to be referring not to Rick Rock and the Girl Next Door, but to Rick Rock and Shaggy?

Oh my god, new theory. So I've got the It Was Shaggy theory and now jackson's got it was shaggy and rick rocker that were lovers well i don't even know if they were lovers necessarily i've got to find out every instance of the girl next door and try to know who this woman is he was creeping with a girl next door yeah so that's it that's all i'm sure we can get another line there's more lines than that okay creeping with the girl next door and then at the start he says i let this happen with the girl next door. And then at the start, he says, I let this happen with the girl next door, you know, in the intro. What if it's the girl?

What if? Well, you know how he describes a lot of situations about how she saw like eight different positions. What if the girl next door wasn't just another witness? Or. She was creeping. Or. No. Okay.

Honey came in and she caught me red handed creeping with the girl next door. So, so we are interpreting that line as caught me red handed with the girl next door. But I think we can interpret this as honey creeping with the girl next door came in and caught me red handed. Oh, yeah. Yes. It's just about how you pass that sentence grammatically. And I reckon we can, I think the other way makes sense as well.

Picture this, we were both butt naked, perhaps referring to Shaggy and Rick Rock, banging on the bathroom floor. Now they could be having sex, sure. But I think that it's sort of like a Tyler Durden situation. Banging on the bathroom floor refers to them wrestling and fighting in the bathroom. Likewise, banging on the sofa. Yeah, well, there In the bathroom Likewise banging on the sofa

Yeah well there we go Banging on the sofa and it wasn't me cause Shaggy's saying No I'm not real I am a creation Of Rick Rock Rick Rock's Tyler Durden I know they make soap in Flight Club But does that link to the line Had her in the shower? I think so

Oh yeah her damn who's the her Hmm even had her in the shower i think so oh yeah her damn who's the her even had her in the shower oh no i know he's just set up that's what he was working on or home renovations he's put a tv in his bathroom and he's watching the movie her in the shower that makes sense i even had her in the shower he's talking about how nice i mean life used to be yeah also access to a time machine because that movie hadn't come out for about a decade and a half when this movie did but i think i think this makes total total sense she even caught me on camera it wasn't me you caught rick rock not me the the tyler durden of shaggy of rick rock shaggy marks on my shoulder from fighting the words that I told her

But that just makes sense The screams get louder as Rick Rock slowly goes insane Stayed until it was over I don't know what it is but I think we're getting somewhere guys What's a classic quote from Fight Club Because maybe that's the words that he told her Oh that's true

Let's get the most classic Fight Club The most classic line from Fight Club is You've met me at a Yeah a strange time in my life or it's um you know first world fight club oh yeah that's maybe a bit more famous well you met me at a strange time in my life it's pretty funny to tell someone tell someone as you're as you're struggling with your shaggy personality right okay i love this so this is this is the precursor to fight club in which rick rock has created his tyler durden aka shaggy who doesn't

exist by the end of this song because he realizes i want to tell her that i'm sorry for all the pain i've caused i've been listening to your reason and it makes no sense at all so this is the part where he realizes shaggy is a figment of my imagination it was me but i think he knows as well rick rick knows that he'll never truly escape shaggy and that's where the line we should tell her that i'm sorry like he knows that now shaggy is a part of who he is he's just learned to control it like ven and you've also got the you may think that you're a player but you're completely lost that's why i sing and that's yeah that's also why this song ends with the entirety of where is my mind by the pixies yeah absolutely and i think that's why as well at the end we get that last the chorus

again honey came in and caught me red-handed he's just he's just reiterating it's it's like the closing line of a play he's like here it was and now we've overcome it you know when i stepped out of the theater i had two things on my mind paul newman and a ride home outsider starts and ends with the same fucking line sodas it wasn't me it's it's poetry that's what this song is oh my god actually no new answer it's actually eddie murphy uh which is alarming to you i'm excited to find out how this could possibly be the case shaggy wrote shaggy wrote the whole song because he was inspired by something that eddie murphy said that's the real answer okay oh well we had fun didn't we Well, we had fun, didn't we, boys? Yeah, we had fun joking around,

but it's too sure he hit the nail on the head. If it was not Shaggy, then it was Eddie Murphy. Case closed. Well, hang on. Eddie Murphy has multiple personas, so maybe Eddie Murphy is just also Shaggy. Which of the clumps did it? So Fight Club is just the narrator and Tyler Durdenden but it's just the clumps you're right it's just not the clumps that's what i said the moment i came out of the theater seeing that movie

in 1999 or whatever it's like yeah it was fine but like i've seen nutty professor 2 like i knew what was gonna happen when jackson stepped out of the movie theater, he had two things on his mind. Wow. Wow. I'm glad I had that fake ID to see this film. Also, it was just the clumps. Well,

yeah, we've done it. We've solved the case. there's Norbit. Wasn't me. Caught me in the shower. Norbit. Wasn't me.

Actually, I love that. I love that i love this is yeah this is actually a song of eddie murphy trying to say that that wasn't him in the movie norbert shaggy was inspired not by a story where he was like yeah i was caught red-handed having an affair and i just lied about it he's like shaggy once told me he denied being in norbert norbert wasn't me i think i think the whole it's ghost written by eddie murphy and the whole thing is a metaphor about him and his experience with the film norbert honey came in and caught me red-handed the audience came into the theater and caught eddie murphy red-handed making a terrible film creeping with the girl next door norbert's wife picture this we're both butt naked there's a lot of nudity in in norbert famously oh dude and also in norbert eddie murphy

plays norbert and norbert's wife yeah so he literally fucks himself in that movie yeah that's the magic in norbert eddie murphy fucks himself and i think in that film he is in love with the girl next door and I think at the very end, you know, we should tell her sorry is Eddie Murphy. He's like, we should apologize to the people for making the film Norbert. And we refers to him and Norbert

and Norbert's wife and every character. The clumps? Every Eddie Murphy character. Pluto Nash? Yeah. This is Eddie Murphy's apology song. Dr. Dillill he's in there too yeah yeah he's not he's not as sorry about that one no that was quite sorry that it resulted in the uh robert de niro robert de niro robert dunny jr version yeah he regrets that but otherwise wow i think we've come up with a lot of very interesting interpretations of shaggy's It Wasn't Me.

Personally, I think my favourite is still the Fight Club It Wasn't Me narrative. I think to me that makes the most sense. To me, the one that makes the most sense is the fact that it wasn't Shaggy, it was in fact Eddie Murphy. And this is an apology to us, the audience, for his cinematic releases. Yeah. Yeah, I think that's bang on. Yeah. I think we did eddie murphy i forgive you we've cracked the case and then just post the lyrics to it wasn't me by shaggy

and rick rock please yeah and tweet rick rock and be like we know you were in it wasn't me even though you're not cracking it what if we just start tweeting tweeting lines from the intro of it wasn't me um to eddie murphy and see if he responds with the next line? Almost certain Eddie Murphy isn't on Twitter. People kept tweeting him lines from this song. Eddie Murphy responds. We retweet it. Eddie Murphy deletes his Twitter account.

Goes into hiding. I don't know why he's ashamed of apologizing. Holy shit, he is on Twitter. There you go. What the fuck? It's doable. Oh, no, it's not official. Edward R. Murphy, not the actual Eddie Murphy that you think.

Maybe ask Edward R. Murphy if he, too, would like to apologize for the film Norbit. Do you want to know what his last tweet was? Yes, please. September 26, 2012. to apologize for the film nor but do you want to know what his last tweet was yes september 26 2012 whenever i delete an app on my iphone i see the app shaking and i think they're all panicking over who's getting deleted first haha indeed and then it makes you think that every other tweet he's done is trying to give away a fake iphone 4 one of my lucky followers can win this as long as you mention me in your status and say your best

eddie murphy movie wow reply hey would we like to to just to just to to wrap this up um explore if anything changes when we replace the the lyrics of this the song with the clean lyrics because obviously right now it's quite pornographic so instead of picture this we were both butt naked banging on the bathroom floor picture this we were both butt naked banging on the bathroom floor. Picture this, we were both caught making love on the bathroom floor, which doesn't have the same cadence at all. And then instead of saw me banging on the sofa, it saw me kissing on the sofa. I don't know if that changes anything. Just thought I'd put it out there. Yeah, that changes the whole thing.

Because picture this, we were both butt naked banging on the bathroom floor. Less intense than we were making love on the bathroom floor. Yeah, that's true. Interestingly, making love on the bathroom floor makes me feel like maybe Rick Rock should leave his wife for this brand new person. Because he's in love. Yeah, it's love.

It's not pure smut. It's not just raw fucking. It's something special. And kissing on the sofa, that's nice. They're just cuddling. A tender song now yeah absolutely it's just about a love a love affair that unfortunately like it's about a love that sometimes like it's faded and it's been replaced with a new love and rick rock is trying to come to terms with that or maybe it's just about eddie murphy starting a fire club it's hard to say um speaking of g-rated it

wasn't me's um when i went to go see my sister's primary school play when i was like a few years into high school they did like a big mash-up of a bunch of fairy tales and they did the queen of hearts like the queen of hearts who has like lost her tarts or whatever it is and like someone eats the tarts and they had you know the it was like we're pretty like suburban like i don't know 200 person primary school and uh you had someone playing like shitty piano along to all the songs and so it was like and then the kid was like the guy who had been accused of eating the Queen's tarts was taken to trial. And the guy who was like accusing him was like, you stole the tarts and you ate them. And then the kid said, it wasn't me. That's the only line I remember.

And then all the kids started going. And a bunch of kids came out and started break dancing. And one kid did the worm and that was that's amazing how good though is like is uh yeah like doing your own version of a song about fucking a girl on the couch in a primary school musical about fairy tales it's incredible we've unlocked a lot of new knowledge today and frankly it's dangerous the first rule The first rule of this episode is you're not allowed to talk about it. Yeah, delete it as soon as you listen to it and go make some soap. And on that note, I've been Joel.

I've been Jackson. And I've been Levins, Zabit's permanent replacement. Thanks, guys. Rest in peace, Zabit. In everything. We've actually fired Joel Zabit from the company. It turns out if enough employees gather together, they can fire their boss.

Yeah. We unlocked it. It's a trick. So, yeah, you can try that in your own workplace if you like. And if you want to hear me talk about inane pop culture and pop songs, you can do that on my podcast, Hey Fam, with Angus Truscott, which is now on the Sandspans Network,

plus three of my other podcasts, occasionally talk about music too, and they're on Sandspans as well. They're called Serious Issues, The Mitchin', and All The Small Games. And you should rate us according to who talks about Shaggy the most on those podcasts. I think if I was to rate it, it would probably go,

hey, fam, Serious Issues, All The Small Games, The Mitchin'. That's more than, I think this is the first time Plumbing the Death Star has even mentioned Shaggy. Well, I mean, this is only your fifth official episode, because as you know, only the ones that I appear on are official. And in fact, I would go as far to say only the ones that I appear on drunk out of my mind should be considered canon. We've done one official episode of Death Star. And what an episode, though. What an episode.

Go listen to that. What an episode, though. What an episode. Go listen to that. Thanks for listening. And if you want to follow us on Twitter, you can find us at Sandspants Radio, or you can find us individually.
