That Funky Musicology
Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Panthelogy? What's that? Sismology? Beats me.
Rheumatology? Radiology? Musicology? Musicology!

Chorus:
Play the funky, funky, musicology!
Play it on your radi-adi-adiology.
How I love it, love it, love it!
Gosh and golly gee!
Gotta, gotta, gotta, have that funky musicology!
Yeow!

Now when I wear a pair of panthelogy,
I like that extra large seismology.
Which leaves a lotta, lotta rheumatology,
For when I'm dancing. To that funky musicology!

Chorus

Greek mythology? Now that I understand.
Genealogy? Poof! Your wish is my command.
What's this? Phonology? Something about the phone?
Ichthyology? Leave it alone.
Pharmacology, (uh-huh) Etiology? (Okay)
Meteorology? (I like) Ideology? (Do tell).

Down on old McDonald's pharmacology,
They grow food that we etiology.
Even the meat? You mean meteorology?
Frankly, I don't have the slightest ideology.
Fancy phraseology rings my bell.
Tricky, tricky, tricky, terminology, sounds so swell.

She drove off in her lexicology.
Her fancy souped up autobiography.
But then she ran out of gastronentrology.
Had to buy a tank full with her Visa cardiology.
Then she drove her lexicology right into the oceanography,
So she had to hail a taxonomy to take her homeopathy.

Chorus

Ology, ology, ology, ology, ology.




Hep, hep, hep!
Funky musicology, yeow! Yeow!

The chorus centers around the idea of playing "funky musicology" on any instrument or technology available, and the sisters express their love for it with adoring urges like "Gotta, gotta, gotta, have that funky musicology!"


Throughout the song, the Olsen twins mention additional "ologies" while also incorporating tongue-twisting wordplay, for example: "Pharmacology, (uh-huh) Etiology? (Okay)/ Meteorology? (I like) Ideology? (Do tell)." As the song unfolds, they switch from talking about different fields of study to a lighthearted story about a woman driving around in her "lexicology" and "autobiography," but running out of gas and needing to get it filled up with her "Visa cardiology."


Overall, "That Funky Musicology" is a fun and playful tune that celebrates the world of academia while also recognizing the power of music as a unifying, grooving force that has the ability to bring people together regardless of their respective fields of study or interests.
