I think this is one of the most idiotic songs I've EVER heard.
But, like typical Andy, his videos make it enjoyable to watch. A number of people play "Jizz in my Pants" at The Spot, and when I listen to the song I think, "This is dumb" - but whenever I watch the video, I laugh and laugh.
I don't think I'll ever buy the CD, but I will always gladly watch his videos, because the visuals he puts along to his moronic lyrics always make me laugh.
i would argue that the song is no more or less idiotic than the typical rap song that the video spoofs. hip hop lately has become increasingly driven by two things, product placement(i.e. boat) and bragging about one having these products(i.e. i'm on a boat)
again samberg and crew are showing off a true understanding of exactly what it is they are making fun of...and that is what makes it funny.
as opposed to the typical notion of comedy that is all about the content of a joke, the lonely island have taken a more nuanced(as well as post-modern) approach and decided to use both the form and content to create a portrait for the image of their mockery. while the lyrics may be facile, bordering on infantile, perhaps you should understand the context and realize that that, in essence, is the point.
