The Lyrics
There she was just a-standin' in the street
I said "Hey, there, biddy! Biddy dumb! Biddy move!"
Blockin' the road and shufflin' her feet
I said "Hey, there, biddy! Biddy dumb! Biddy move!"
She looked old (looked old)
She looked slow (looked slow)
She looked old, she looked slow
And I knew she had to go
Before I knew it I was gettin' out the car
Sayin' "Hey, there, biddy! Biddy dumb! Biddy move!"
Gonna run you over if you stay right where you are
Sayin' "Hey, there, biddy! Biddy dumb! Biddy move!"
She walked on (walked on)
She walked slow (walked slow)
She walked on, walked slow
Then my temper starts to go...
Oh, and soon I was starting to shove
Yes I did, and
So I told her the worst curses I was thinking of
I got so mad that I pushed out the way
Sayin' "Hey, there, biddy! Biddy dumb! Biddy move!"
She's in the gutter and that's where she's gonna stay
Sayin' "Hey, there, biddy! Biddy dumb! Biddy move!"
I'm mad (I'm mad)
She's down (she's down)
I'm mad, she's down
And the P'lice are comin' round
Oh, they asked me did I have to shove
I said "Yes I did"
So they read me my rights, and then they took me off
Now she comes to visit nearly every single day
I say "Hey, there, biddy! Biddy dumb! Biddy move!"
'Cause I'm in prison and that's where I'm gonna stay
Sayin' "Hey, there, biddy! Biddy dumb! Biddy move!"
I'm young (I'm young)
I'm caged (I'm caged)
I'm young, I'm caged
It was all caused by road rage
Sayin' "Hey, there, biddy! Biddy dumb! Biddy move!"
"Hey, there, biddy! Biddy dumb! Biddy move!"
"Hey, there, biddy! Biddy dumb! Biddy move!"
I said "Hey, there, biddy! Biddy dumb! Biddy move!"
Blockin' the road and shufflin' her feet
I said "Hey, there, biddy! Biddy dumb! Biddy move!"
She looked old (looked old)
She looked slow (looked slow)
She looked old, she looked slow
And I knew she had to go
Before I knew it I was gettin' out the car
Sayin' "Hey, there, biddy! Biddy dumb! Biddy move!"
Gonna run you over if you stay right where you are
Sayin' "Hey, there, biddy! Biddy dumb! Biddy move!"
She walked on (walked on)
She walked slow (walked slow)
She walked on, walked slow
Then my temper starts to go...
Oh, and soon I was starting to shove
Yes I did, and
So I told her the worst curses I was thinking of
I got so mad that I pushed out the way
Sayin' "Hey, there, biddy! Biddy dumb! Biddy move!"
She's in the gutter and that's where she's gonna stay
Sayin' "Hey, there, biddy! Biddy dumb! Biddy move!"
I'm mad (I'm mad)
She's down (she's down)
I'm mad, she's down
And the P'lice are comin' round
Oh, they asked me did I have to shove
I said "Yes I did"
So they read me my rights, and then they took me off
Now she comes to visit nearly every single day
I say "Hey, there, biddy! Biddy dumb! Biddy move!"
'Cause I'm in prison and that's where I'm gonna stay
Sayin' "Hey, there, biddy! Biddy dumb! Biddy move!"

"Hey, there, biddy! Biddy dumb! Biddy move!"
"Hey, there, biddy! Biddy dumb! Biddy move!"

Phil, you have outdone yourself...I'll be singing this one for weeks. Excellent (555)
Now I can't say I have read every "Doo Wah Diddy" parody, but I have read many, and this is THE FUNNIEST I HAVE READ. I am wiping tears of laughter off of my face as I type these comments. This was totally ROTFLMAO...555
I didn't find it too funny, although the pacing was good. 5-4-4 is what I vote.
I'm not going to vote, seeing as I am not sure what this song is about. "Biddy - adult female chicken" says dictionary. ???? I thought about it, and it is still unclear, besides that this song could be perverted.
Bashing the elderly is a topic near and dear to my heart and this was done quite well; very funny. Note to YWM: what does your dictionary say about the word "context"?
Claude, the initials of the person you were responding to are YWN, not YWM. Nightmare doesn't start with an M.
Claude Prez - I am just assuming that by biddy, he means an old woman.
acronym checker - Yeah, once somebody called me IYWN.

From dictionary.com: biddy n. Slang: A woman, especially a garrulous old one
I thought it was quite a salutory tale... this one's been kind of odd: most times I get a song in my head, and it takes a parody to get the tune out again; but I've been humming and whistling this tune since writing this parody.

Another one that's seemingly tailor made for my funny-bone! Hilarious, Phil!
Very smooth; and the sentiment is right on.. ( And what about those oblivious old people in the supermarket who jam up the aisles by spontaneously darting out at 45-degree angles to the shelves when you're bearing down on them with your cart?)
Maybe one has to be older to be used to the term Biddy, because for me, the term fits perfectly with the song's intent. This particular biddy had obviously just come out of the bank where she had delayed me at lunchtime! Good one Phil!
(May SOTM) Philbo's ditty, ditty fun did he do!
I know I already mentioned that I like this one a lot, but it can't be said enough. (SOTM)
(May SOTM) It was funny, but the original song didn't give much room to show your writing skill. 5-5-4
Ooh yeah Philbo Philbo fun Philbo dude
(SOTM) Heh heh - I know one 80 year old who would have pulverized you with her handbag, and THEn called the police... ;-)
(SOTM) Good one! Hehe
I think you just got my vote. 5'd.
Very good title, very good parody.
Greatness. I seriously can't help but smile when I read the first stanza. And I learned the text-book definition of 'biddy' too. Fun and educational going hand in hand, who knew?
Great song!!!
