Gotye Gets The Bad Lip Reading Treatment, Will Unapologetically Kick Your Monkey

Gotye’s ubiquitous “Somebody That I Used To Know” finally cracked the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 following his appearance on SNL a couple weeks ago (although we like to believe his mad trivia skills had something to do with it). Now Bad Lip Reading took a break from hilariously dubbing political ads to add new lyrics and music to the video for the song in the same way they’ve remixed Michael Bublé, Bruno Mars, Lady Gaga, and Jay-Z.

BLR’s version of Gotye likes to kick monkeys and use your goat without asking, as well as gluing tiny mustaches to cats (but only on Wednesdays). We’re not down with kicking monkeys, but the cat mustache idea is intriguing. He’d fit right in at the UPROXX office as long as he can reduce his monkey assaults and up his cat mustache output. The previous sentence is my official performance review for most employees. I should get it printed on a rubber stamp to save time.

Continue below for the lyrics and to hear harrowing threats against your monkey and your goat.

LYRICS:

Kicked Your Monkey

That was yet another way of working with the Sith
They’re greasy little freaks who hide pickles in the sky
And I know my selfish cuckoo otter fooled me
Miss Fisher don’t think that I’m pretty
But I would stuff a sixty cent nacho in my book

Lines, lines, intersecting
Oh, lines, lines, lines
Intersecting now with paint

I can’t hear when you talk, I got cheese candy
I’d like to glue a tiny mustache on your cat on Wednesdays
If a woman fails to squeal then I’ll smell her jeans
I hate the crazy seagulls we won in those stupid frames
And all the bloody mittens that were lying under the harlequin’s sofa

And the genie never got me off
Am I glad I keyed that van
It’ll make me fly when you’re rubbing that thing
I’m fighting with ninja gloves
Been dreaming I could strangle you and it felt so wonderful
No the genie never dumped her load
I’m body snatching you and then I’ma change your diaper
I kiss down really low
I kicked your monkey then I used your goat!
I kicked your monkey then I used your goat

I kicked your monkey then I used your goat

Ghetto lady thinks your froggy’s name is Lou McGopher
A piggy baby leaving Arizona slipped and fell last night
A banana wanted in that crack
Who really thinks you have a Waldo sack?
Stuff is shooting out of this hole
Wookie snatcher, eat a bunch of pie and then just close the door!

But the genie never got me off
Am I glad I keyed that van
It’ll make me fly when you’re rubbing that thing
I’m fighting with ninja gloves
Been dreaming I could strangle you and it felt so wonderful
No the genie never dumped her load
I’m body snatching you and then I’ma change your diaper
I kiss down really low
I kicked your monkey then I used your goat! (Monkey!)
I kicked your monkey then I used your goat (Monkey!)

I used your goat (Monkey!)
I kicked your monkey then I used your goat

I used your goat
Yeah, I used your goat
I used your goat
Monkey
(Monkey!)
