about

Parody of Uptown Funk by Mark Ronson & Bruno Mars. It's about the only cartoon skunk you've probably heard of. Lyrics by Ethan Mawyer with anonymous guest vocals.

lyrics

He thinks he’s Don Juan
The pied piper of love songs
Smooth words,
But got no grace
He’s always
One track mind thinking

Wining, dining
Skipping all that, straight to kissing
Got no hope
And no clue, nope
And of course he don’t have permission

Thinks he’s suave (Le Pew)
But he does things creepy stalkers do
When he farts (Le Pew)
You will say ooh blech like Bartholomew
He’s a nut (Le Pew)
Makes you say E then W
And his butt… (Le Pew)
He’s the bad sort of funky

No shame and zero honor
No shame and zero honor
No shame and zero honor

The cartoon skunk is always hitting on her
The cartoon skunk is always hitting on her
The cartoon skunk is always hitting on her

Run for your life if you see this skunk

Don’t be near when he farts
Don’t be near when he talks
Don’t be near if you’re smart
Don’t be near him at all
Don’t be near him at all
Don’t be near him at all

Cops…why you oughta
See if he’s got restraining orders
Take his prints, grab his tail
Why is he not in jail?
Out in Paris, Avignon,
And the whole French country
If he sees you, you should watch out
Since this guy is just so skunky

Thinks he’s suave (Pepe)
He’s as high-class as a Chik-Fil-A
When he farts (Pepe)
Then your sinuses want to run away
Thinks he’s smart (Pepe)
He does not have intellibrains
He tries hard (Pepe)
Hard is how she’ll be running

No shame and zero honor
No shame and zero honor
No shame and zero honor

This cartoon skunk is always hitting on her
This cartoon skunk is always hitting on her
This cartoon skunk is always hitting on her

Run for your life if you see this skunk
Don’t be near when he farts
Don’t be near when he talks
Don’t be near if you’re smart
Don’t be near him at all
Don’t be near him at all
Don’t be near him at all

You’ll wanna sneeze
That won’t help you much though

Upwind skunk is yuck
Upwind skunk is yuck
Also downwind skunk is yuck
Skunk is always yuck

Upwind skunk is yuck
Upwind skunk is yuck
Also downwind skunk is yuck
Skunk is always yuck

They call France romantic
But what he does, well that’s sick
They are creepy weird antics
More maddening than mass transit
There’s no chance she’ll like him
It’s expected she’s frightened
Well now he is a skunk and she is a cat
That’s not why this is wrong
All about it is wrong
It’s completely just wrong
This is weird and just wrong
It is really so wrong
That’s the point of this song

Cartoon skunk is yuck
Cartoon skunk is yuck
Cartoon skunk is yuck
Cartoon skunk is yuck
Cartoon skunk is yuck
Cartoon skunk is yuck
Cartoon skunk is yuck
Cartoon skunk is yuck
Cartoon skunk is yuck
Cartoon skunk is yuck
Cartoon skunk is yuck
Cartoon skunk is yuck
Cartoon skunk is yuck
Cartoon skunk is yuck
Cartoon skunk is yuck
