Shamwow Song
Rhett And Link Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You'll be saying wow
Every time you use this towel.
It's like a chamois! It's like a towel!
It's like a sponge.
A regular towel doesn't work wet - this works wet or dry.
This is for the house, the car, the boat, the rv!
Shamwow holds twenty times it's weight in liquid. Look at this!
It just does the work!
Why do you want to work twice as hard?
Doesn't drip, doesn't make a mess.
Wring it out, you wash it in the washing machine.
Made in Germany, you know the Germans always make good stuff.
You can cut it in half, use one as a bath mat, drain your dishes with the other one.
Use one as a towel.
Olympic divers, they use it as a towel.
Look at that! Completely dry!
Put a wet sweater, roll it up, it dries your sweaters. Here's some cola, wine, coffee cola pet stains. Not only is the damage gonna be on top - there's your mildew. That is going to smell! [ See that? ]
The most absorbing We're gonna do this in real time! Look at this! Put it on the spill, turn it over! Without even putting pressure, fifty percent of the cola right there.
You followin me, camera guy?
The other fifty percent, the color starts to come up. No other towel's gonna do that!
It acts like a vacuum!
And look at this - virtually dry on the bottom!
See what I'm telling ya?
Shamwow! You'll be saying wow every time!
Rhett and Link's song, Shamwow Song, uses the actual infomercial's audio of Vince Offer advertising the Shamwow towel. The lyrics of the song are essentially just reciting the features that Vince described in the infomercial. The chorus encourages the listeners to try out the Shamwow towel and be impressed by how versatile it is.
Vince is a very enthusiastic salesman in the infomercial, touting the fact that the Shamwow towel can hold twenty times its weight in liquid. He also emphasizes how easy the towel is to use and how it doesn't make a mess or drip. He even demonstrates how to use it to dry out a wet sweater by rolling it up in the towel. The song mentions various uses for the Shamwow, including for the house, car, boat, and RV, and even suggests cutting it in half and using one portion as a bath mat.
Overall, the Shamwow Song is a lighthearted take on the infamous Shamwow infomercial. The lyrics effectively sum up the various features of the towel in a catchy and memorable way.
