The "Bad Lip Reader" behind the channel is an anonymous Texas-based music and video producer. The first Bad Lip Reading video released was a spoof of Rebecca Black's song "Friday", titled "Gang Fight". New music and lyrics were matched to Black's video to make it appear as though she were singing about gang warfare. The "Gang Fight" YouTube video, released in March 2011, earned BLR a million hits and thousands of subscribers.
More spoof videos followed, including interpretations of The Black Eyed Peas' "Boom Boom Pow" (a viral video called "Everybody Poops"), Taylor Swift's "Our Song" and Michael Bublé's "Haven't Met You Yet". The latter was transformed into the "electronica inspired" "Russian Unicorn", which Bublé himself praised as his "new favorite song" and "one of the coolest things I've ever seen."
In a Rolling Stone interview, the producer behind the Bad Lip Reading videos said that he first encountered the technique of lip reading when his mother, then in her 40s, lost her hearing due to unknown causes. While she excelled at lip reading, he was unable to pick up the skill despite trying: "I was terrible at it."
Morning Dew
Bad Lip Reading Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now she's rolling like a pimp, yeah
Gonna send flowers to all my foes
Drive a Mexican cab to the store
Stink and sweat out the juice we got in there
I'm damp for the easy muffin
What it is, I'm a night trauma life guard
Chicken never hurt me I'm a good flavor top dog
Stop me at the club, I'm Han, you're Greedo
Keep wanting your morning dew
You're my pizza man, my pizza man
I like spastic golden toys
Keep wanting your morning dew
This huge pizza's made with
Cheese and broccoli
You got a trophy when you won that thing
Aunt Sharona hates a puppet
Don't freak if your XBOX ain't a pay phone
Don't ever make a sick child thick toast
Tonight after wine I'ma knock you in the head, and then
Grande taco
If I had a furry pet monkey right here
Then I'd take him out to Shady Pine and get a cold beer
Keep wanting your morning dew
You're my pizza man, my pizza man
I like spastic golden toys
Keep wanting your morning dew
This huge pizza's made with cheese and broccoli
One time I drew a pink ice castle with a
Green hot dog and three light snacks
I'ma teach y'all how to scrape out the sink drain
A midget said speak with an accent
So I did just so I could steal his
Porsche while he was tied to a stake in the rain
Stop the drama
Before I get the sniffles
Making happy on my floor,
Got a stiffle
Boom
Bring me my shovel and make one wish
Yeah, who wants to see me give a rock to a fish?
Whoopsie daisy
Someone's in my backseat
Eatin' orange slices
Think they took my coffee
Went to the club
Got a jawbreaker
We about to party balls
Cuz I'm a rainmaker
Ay o, girl, you should try them chicken fingers instead of that pizza
Mirror, mirror, on my floor
Am I the prettiest at the store?
Keep wanting your morning dew
You're my pizza man, my pizza man
I like spastic golden toys
Keep wanting your morning dew
This huge pizza's made with cheese and broccoli
Keep wanting your morning dew
The world's fastest girl might be wrong
We popped the cork, now it's time to go away
Keep wanting your morning dew
I got that crown, I'll knock you out
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
I got ten pounds of peanut brittle
And a little poodle got it's coat on
Mirror, mirror, on my floor
Am I the prettiest at the store?
Is this Idaho? Because I will NOT limbo in Idaho.
The lyrics to Bad Lip Reading's song Morning Dew are a perfect example of the art of nonsensical wordplay. The track is composed of a series of completely unrelated phrases and sentences that intersect to produce a haphazard stream of consciousness. The artist weaves together seemingly random observations about pizza, furry pets, trophy wins, and tacos to create a chaotic world of absurdity.
The lyrics do not follow any particular structure or form but are a collection of bizarre and funny musings. Lines like "Keep wanting your morning dew, You're my pizza man" and "I'm damp for the easy muffin" sound completely nonsensical on their own but create a unique and catchy rhythm when put together. The song celebrates the joy of the absurd and the bizarre, a spirit captured perfectly in the line "Is this Idaho? Because I will NOT limbo in Idaho."
In conclusion, Bad Lip Reading's Morning Dew is a song that defies easy explanation. The lyrics are a dizzying array of irreverence and humor that elevate the mundane and the strange into something wholly unique.
