Shock G says that George Clinton walked out of the studio once he found out Zapp was in cahoots with Warners (George's parent label) and moved on, never mentioning it again ... but Zapp's Wikipedia page says that George, Roger Troutman and Warners were involved in a lawsuit that ended up with George & Funkadelic leaving Warners.

At least 5 sides to this story - George's, Bootsy's, Zapp's, Mo Ostin's and the truth. smoker

He is a whiny jealous bitch and all that bull about G.Clinton and the FBI is just fucking crazy.

George and Funkadelic/Parliment were about 10 years a head of everybody else music wise and they never changed their music to cross over and if Bob thinks young people in the 70s would have moved toward Miles Davis electric music instead of P-Funk he is smoking crack and he is much too hard on George's drug issues since Sly and Miles were both fucked up as well and disappered for years. Drugs or no drugs George is still out on the road doing his thing. If white rock stars can get a pass and credit why can't George

"Dr Funkenstein here
Preoccupied and dedicated
To the preservation of the motion of hips"

"To my song I can relate and I don't got to syncopate
Every word is in time, on time, at all times"

Now the kid was kick-back, lining the cut
Eatin' some fish and chips
And this freaky little groupie
>From the funky side of town
Begin to give him some lip
She was babblin' about how bad, ah
She could do the bump
The kid said on the real side of things
Bertha, you got too much rump to bump!

"Eat this for me" and from a tiny tree
She plucked a fruit and placed it on her navel
I was no freak, but I was gettin' weak
I took the quickest way into her womanhood.

Cheaper than discount family therapy
We bring you funk on a couch
From the doctor

Oh! That fuss was us
He's got a bug, she's got a bug
Debugging, baby
That fuss was us
They bug you, they bug your friends
Until they bug you out
That fuss was us
Yeah, call us the pest control

... and Icka Prick

lke John Henry the steel drivin' man
Who with a hammer and spike in his hand
Said it's what's up front that cunt
Lifting weights with his tits (icka prick and iron pussy)
Doing pushups with his clit (yucka fuck and muscle cunt)
Disgusting!

"Suck my mind"

This is equal-opportunity nasty

(without humps there will be no gettin' over)

Oh, yeah, you'll get knocked up listening to this (ahhh-ahhh-ahhh)
You'd better put some protection on your ears
This is graffilthy! (ahhhh-ahhh-ahh!)

Icka prick
You're sick!
Who you gonna stick? (can you imagine this?)
That's a counterfeit dick
The shape of things to come
Can you dig it
Can you imagine this?

This ain't about penetration
It's about tenderness and concentration
Friction what gets you off
Oh, you ain't seen obscene yet

Follow me to the men's room
Watch me write on the wall
I'll tell it all
Flush you before I go
Wash out my mouth with soap
And shit-talk some mo'!
Let's discuss disgusting
You ain't seen obscene yet

Elmo MacNasty, mental masturbation
Psychological perversion

Favourite throwaway P-Funk lines

This is why I love P-Funk and George. Sure the band is unbelievable and the production is fantastic, but it is the lyrical content that always gets me off. So silly, so fun, yet really introspective. I dare anyone to read that and not crack a smile while thinking "damn thats deep".

I once read an article that dissected the lyrical content of Bootsy tracks like "Rubber Duckie" that was equally hilarious/deep. To dismiss George or P-Funk as puppets is blasphemy. The only funk puppets I know of are Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem.

Shock G is a brilliant fella, isn't he? I don't know if anyone could have said it better.
