Edit: Jesus, this one really didn't land. My bad? Too late for a "jk?"

ickplant@lemmy.world · 22 pts · 326d (3 replies)

It’s from a song by Def Leppard and later by Offspring.

Kolanaki@pawb.social · 16 pts · 326d (2 replies)

Wait wait wait...

Pretty Fly For a White Guy was originally by Def Leppard?! 😮

I need to hear that version right now.

Edit: Oh... You just mean the lyrics in the meme are sampled from Rock of Ages. Now I'm sad... 😥

ickplant@lemmy.world · 14 pts · 326d (1 reply)

Yeah, sorry to disappoint you! I should have been more clear in my comment, lol.

Kolanaki@pawb.social · 11 pts · 326d

It would have been gnarly since the lyrics would have been way ahead of their time 🤣
