The Lyrics
Vanilla Ice aka Rob Van Winkle has made a name for himself in the business. Here is a tribute to him.
(Sfx: bowling ball knocking over pins)
wow-wee, ha ha ha haaaa, a strike
boom-boom-boom, boom-a-boom-boom
Boom boom-boom, boom-a-boom-boom, boom
Rob Van Winkle, Rob Van WInkle
Rap, rap, rap, ha ha ha haaaaaa
Rob Van WInkle, Rob Van WInkle
rap, rap, rap
boom-boom-boom, boom-a-boom-boom
boom-boom-boom, boom-a-boom-boom
He wrote a rap song at 16 one day
Spent many weeks on the charts this way
Boom-boom-boom, boom-a-boom boom
Boom-boom-boom, boom-a-boom-boom, boom
Rob Van Winkle, Rob Van WInkle
Rap, rap, rap
His own rap song earned him more than plenty coins
The proudest white rapper in the 90s to join
While MC Hammer's career is just making that green
Vanila Ice justs wants his hip-hop dream, dream, dream
Just look what happened now
It's been 14 years
This is why we call the end
of Winkle's career
This is where Rob Van is now
He's racing motorcross from there to here
His movie "Cool as Ice" became a Gigli one day
Had a CD that sold tons away
He's got 2 children and even a wife
Now he joins the washed-up people on The Surreal Life
Rob Van Winkle, Rob Van Winkle
Doo doo doo, doo da-doo
Boom boom boom, boom-a-boom-boom
boom boom boom, boom-a-boom-boom, boom
Rob Van WInkle, Rob Van WInkle
rap, rap, rap
Rob Van Winkle, RobVan Winkle
rap, rap, rap
Rob Van Winkle, Rob Van Winkle
word to your mother
Rob Van Winkle, Rob Van Winkle
word to your mother
boom boom boom, boom-a-boom-boom
boom boom boom, boom-a-boom-boom
Vanilla Ice says, "word to your mother."
(sfx: snoring)
(sfx: bowling ball knocking down pins) Wow-wee!
wow-wee, ha ha ha haaaa, a strike
boom-boom-boom, boom-a-boom-boom
Boom boom-boom, boom-a-boom-boom, boom
Rob Van Winkle, Rob Van WInkle
Rap, rap, rap, ha ha ha haaaaaa
Rob Van WInkle, Rob Van WInkle
rap, rap, rap
boom-boom-boom, boom-a-boom-boom
boom-boom-boom, boom-a-boom-boom
He wrote a rap song at 16 one day
Spent many weeks on the charts this way
Boom-boom-boom, boom-a-boom boom
Boom-boom-boom, boom-a-boom-boom, boom

Cool!
Give me a break. You suck. Rob didn't.
This song sucks major ass. It's right up there with William Hung's singing.
Why don't we make a parody about you. Leave people alone.
