i thought it was old not cold - am i wrong???
whats the use of cold spunk??? mind u anything old would be cold i spose!!!
wild thing always reminds me of marky mark wahlbergs version of walk on the wildside. u know the old version - cant remember who it was by - the cherry pie bloke i think. no american pie...that was it.
well marky marks version was much better plus we got to watch his abs on MTV

Lou Reed has looked dead for much longer than Keith Richards, while Don McLean always looked like he should be teaching geography.
Come to think of it, Lou Reed looks like the zombi Michael Jackson in Thriller.

A Flock of Seagulls did release a cover version of this song - as did ZZ Top - but the original was by Tone Loc.
Here are the lyrics if anyone's interested:
And here are the chords for guitar if anyone wants to practice up their chops and get their mojo ready for the next BGAFD get-together:
And for those who are somewhat baffled by Mr Loc's lyrics here is "An Analytical Perspective of Post-Industrial Revolution Sexual Politics":
And here is a recipe for a cocktail named a Funky Cold Medina
Tone Loc's Wild Thing is not a cover of The Troggs' song.
Here are the lyrics for Mr Loc's song:
Tone Loc was also the voice of the character Tek in the animated movie "Titan A.E." (2000) as well as appearing in various movies and TV shows.

Thank you.
