"Baby Got Nook"
(Lyrics by David Tyckoson, adapted from Sir Mix-a-Lot's "Baby Got Back")
[Intro]
Oh, my, god. Becky, look at her Nook.
It is so small.
She looks like,
one of those library users.
But, you know, who understands those lib’aries?
They only help her, because,
she looks like a total genius, 'kay?
I mean, her nook, is just so cute.
I can't believe it's just so thin, it's like,
right there, I mean - tiny. Look!
She's just so ... smart!
[Sir Reads-a-Lot]
I like e-books and I can not lie
You other brothers can't deny
That when a girl walks in with an e-book reader
Then you know you really need her.
You get sprung, wanna pull out your tough
'Cause you notice that nook is stuffed
Full of books she’s reading
I'm hooked and I can't stop pleading
Oh baby, I wanna get with you
And take your picture
My homeboys tried to warn me
But e-books make me so hot
Ooh, Kindle owner
You say you wanna get in my Benz?
Well, use me, use me
'Cause you ain't that average groupie
I've seen them readin'
To hell with romances'
She's smart, smart,
Got it goin' like a turbo 'Vette
I'm tired of magazines
Sayin' print books are the thing
Take a library man and ask him that
She gotta pack e-books
So, fellas! (Yeah!) Fellas! (Yeah!)
Has your girlfriend got e-books? (Hell yeah!)
Tell 'em to read it! (Read it!) Read it! (Read it!)
Read that Kindle Fire!
Baby got book!
(Nook interface with Kindle app)
Baby got book!
