about

From Episode 39 of the Don't Be An Idiom podcast, "Down In The Goop" draws inspiration from one of the events that helped bring the idiom "boondocks" into the English language.

lyrics

I spent a long day in the military
With a bull frog
A bull frog baby
I'm standing near the kitchen
With a sweet tooth
Jiggling the doorknob
Knocking on the door

The chef was out of town
So we started chowing down
On that ice cream
That sweet cream baby
Just then I turned around
'Cause I heard that awful sound
Of the sergeant stomping on the floor

"Well what do we have here
A couple of pigs?
You can't sit around all day
eating clown food!

You're going down in the goop
For a couple of scoops!
Down in the goop, couple of scoops"
