i have never seen Disorderlies :(

― gershy, Sunday, 26 August 2007 02:57 (nineteen years ago)

Gershy needs to see Disorderlies (it even has a tittie scene, 5th grade me = multiple rewinds).

Best track they ever made: Can You Feel It?
Most underrated album: Coming Back Hard Again

"Double 0 Fat Boys" is one of our fave hooks around the house

granted this was like one million years ago

― Dimension 5ive, Sunday, 26 August 2007 04:04 (nineteen years ago)

Hahaha! Oh my god I was thinking the same thing! There used to be a Sbarro in the mall in my town, and it was strange to see that name again cause I've been thinking a lot about that mall lately, due to a movie I found that had a scene shot there.

― Bimble, Sunday, 26 August 2007 04:14 (nineteen years ago)

defend the indefensible: SBARRO

― gershy, Sunday, 26 August 2007 04:15 (nineteen years ago)

Anybody heard the Fat Boys' rap opera On and On featuring such songs as "Yoverture" and "After (Word!)"?

― Mr. Snrub, Sunday, 26 August 2007 04:16 (nineteen years ago)

Thanks for the link, gershy. That looks like a real good thread. Yeah, I don't remember their pizza being all that stellar, come to think of it.

― Bimble, Sunday, 26 August 2007 04:21 (nineteen years ago)

Sbarro was the cause of one of the messiest, nastiest public toilet shitting experiences of my whole entire life.
Let me elaborate.

It started out like any Sunday really, sun shining, birds singing, morning newspaper open on the kitchen table. Then I ate at a shopping mall Sbarro. Suddenly I was seized with the urge to explosively blow feces out my anus, covering the inside of some mens room toilet and my ass cheeks with brown, yucky poop. I satisfied the urge by doing just that. Flushing such a work of art seemed a crime, so I moved to the next stall to clean myself up. My (and Sbarro's!) creation may still be seen at the 3rd stall from the left, southwest wing mens room, Twelve Oaks Mall, Novi, MI from 9AM to 9PM S-S.

I remember being pleasantly surprised by how funny Disorderlies was (granted this was when I was probably 15 yrs. old or something, so take that with a grain of salt, I suppose).

I think it's funny that they were originally called The Disco 3.

― and what, Sunday, 26 August 2007 20:46 (nineteen years ago)

Now there was just one day
That I will never forget
I got jailed for something that
I'll always regret
It was twelve o'clock, midnight
And I wanted a snack
So I headed downstairs
Thought the fridge was packed
But when I opened the door
What did I see?
The back of the fridge staring right at me
I thought to myself
I could almost die
Then an immage appeared
A pizza pie
So I put on Adidas
Headed out the door
As I pictured myself
Eating more and more
But the store was closed
I busted into a rage
So I went to the crib
And got my twelve-gauge
Ran back to the shop
Busted won the door
And all I saw
Was pizza galore
So I stuffed my face
I couldn't even walk
I couldn't laugh, smile
Shake, giggle, wiggle, or talk
So I fell asleep with my face in my plate
And the next thing you know
I was headed upstate
In jail, in jail, without no bail
In jail, we're in jail because we failed
In jail, in jail, without no bail
In jail, we're in jail because we failed
Well, Kool Rock is my name
Last part is 'ski'
And I have the worst
Case of my M.C.
But listen to the story
'Cause it's kind of strange
When I had this sort of hunger pain
Walking down the strreet
With the bass of my box
With my stomach growling
Like a hungry fox

When I saw this scene
Or was it a dream?
A big restaurant sign
Called Burger King
So I went inside
Started stuffing my face
Didn't even think
About the things I ate
But when the bill came up
Boy, was i shocked
I said, 'I don't pay for nothing
I'm the King of the Slops!'
In jail, in jail, without no bail
In jail, we're in jail because we failed
In jail, in jail, without no bail
In jail, we're in jail because we failed
But when our time is through
We'll rock you and you
We turn parties out
Make you scream and shout
We're not demanding
Or very outstanding
We got something unique
And in the middle he's standing
On the microphone
He rocks and shocks
Homeboys and girls
It's the Human Beat Box
Break
Now I'm sitting here alone
Looking at the wall
Just thinking about
How I took the fall
I thought I was cool
I thought I was slick
And now Im writing
Letters of being homesick
I lost my freedom
When I heard the door slammer
And now I'm breaking rocks
With a big, heavy hammer
I used to drive the streets
With my big car
And now I look and all
I see are bars
I jail
Everyone's the same
You only survive
If you play the game
You don't have guns
And now you remember
You're your momma's son
You made her cry
And stay up all night
Coming home high
Just leaving a fight
You always made her feel
That you were better
But now you're a little boy
Just waiting for a letter

I posted in this in another thread but I love this video!

I think "Can You Feel It" is their best song tho.

― Saxby D. Elder, Monday, 27 August 2007 00:17 (nineteen years ago)

When I finally discovered the Fat Boys in '88 (age 8), they were in that stage where they just did classic rock songs. I remember seeing "The Twist" on the first episode of Yo! MTV Raps.

I also remember The Disorderlies had partial nudity!

I always heard the line in "Fat Boys" that goes "you know they're down by law" as "you know they are quite large". bitterly disappointed now
