Snow on The Ground
I knew it would only be a matter of time until some lame cracker(s) “Elvis’d” General Larry Platts’ song “Pants on the Ground” – but I didn’t think the culprits would be of the meterological variety. As a sidebar, see how many examples of sterotypical “goofy white guy” you can count in this video:

The examples I have spotted thus far:
-
“We’re hip” – No one who actually is, or has ever been ”hip” has ever uttered this phrase in their entire life.
-
“This is like, the next thing to Common right here” – Reference to the only rapper they have ever heard of, usually a street conscious, socially acceptable Grammy winner.
-
The guys “breaking down” before the song begins; this is to prepare themselves for dance mode, and starts the step count in their heads – the countdown itself is a dead giveaway too.
-
The use of “giddy up” in a rap song is almost unprecendented, as are most Southern phrases that were probably coined before the Civil War; the closest I can think of was that Nelly song that seem to be inspired by his love of Speedy Gonzalez & Old McDonald.
-
Most of it doesn’t rhyme, and the lyrics read just like a public service announcement.
-
The near miss high five is classic uncoordinated white guy – even though Tiger Woods took that over too.
