    notorious big translated!
    This paper was turned in by an Oakland High school student who received the highest honors at the school district's ebonics translation competition.

    Assignment:
    Please translate the following song lyrics from ebonics to standard English.

    Artist: The Notorious B.I.G.
    Album: Ready to Die
    Song: "One More Chance (Remix)"

    First things first, I poppa, freaks all the honeys
    Dummies - playboy bunnies, those wantin' money
    Those the ones I like 'cause they don't get nathan'
    But penetration, unless it smells like sanitation
    Garbage, I turn like doorknobs
    Heart throb, never, black and ugly as ever
    However, I stay coochied down to the socks
    Rings and watch filled with rocks

    As a general rule, I perform deviant sexual acts with women of all kinds, including but not limited to those with limited intellect, nude magazine models, and whores. I particularly enjoy sexual encounters with the latter group as they are generally disappointed in the fact that they only receive penile intercourse and nothing more, unless of course, they douche on a consistent basis. Although I am extremely unattractive, I am able to engage in these types of sexual acts with some regularity. Perhaps my sexuality is somehow related to my fancy and expensive jewelery.

    And my jam knock in the Mitsubishi
    Girls pee pee when they see me, Nava-hoes creep me in they tee pee
    As I lay down laws like I lay carpet
    Stop it - if you think your gonna make a profit

    I enjoy playing my music loudly on my car stereo. Apparently, women enjoy this also because they become sexually aroused when they see me driving. Oddly enough, when I visit the Native American reservations, some of the more sexually promiscuous Indian women attempt to seduce me in their homes. Their intent is to divest me of my earnings. Such actions are unacceptable.

    Don't see my ones, don't see my guns - get it
    Now tell ya friends Poppa hit it then split it
    In two as I flow with the Junior Mafia
    I don't know what the hell's stoppin' ya
    I'm clockin' ya - Versace shades watchin' ya
    Once ya grin, I'm in game, begin

    Understand this fact: you can have neither my money, nor my weapons. I suggest that you inform your peers that we engaged in violent sexual acts. Currently, I am rapping with my associates, the Junior Mafia. I'm having some difficulty understanding why you refuse to approach me. I am attempting to make eye contact with you through my expensives glasses, and as soon as you respond with a smile, I will approach you.

    First I talk about how I dress and this
    And diamond necklesses - stretch Lexuses
    The sex is just immaculate from the back I get
    Deeper and deeper - help ya reach the
    Climax that your man can't make
    Call and tell him you'll be home real late
    Let's sing the break

    I prefer to open the conversation with light banter about my wardrobe and jewelery, then I like to discuss my collection of expensive cars. This is more than enough to convince you to have sexual intercourse with me. I am able to insert my penis further into you when I enter you from behind. Furthermore, you will be able to reach orgasm. I understand this to be a problem with your current sexual partner. He needn't be concerned about your whereabouts. Please phone him and inform him that you won't be home for a while. By the way, please sing the chorus of the song for me also.

    She's sick of that song on how it's so long
    Thought he worked his until I handled my biz
    There I is - major pain like Damon Wayans
    Low down dirty even like his brother Keenan
    Schemin' - don't bring your girl 'round me
    True player for real, ask Puff Daddy

    Your current love interest no longer wishes to hear your fabrications about the length of your member. After I had sexual intercourse with your woman, she became enlightened as to the proper way it is supposed to be performed; violently and immorally. It would be in your best interest to keep your woman away from me as my sexual prowess is very strong. If you are unconvinced, ask Puff Daddy.

    You - ringin' bells with bags from Chanel
    Baby Benz, traded in your Hyundai Excel
    Fully equipped, CD changer with the cell
    She beeped me, meet me at twelve

    Despite the fact that you attempted to win her at her doorstep with bags full of expensive clothes and a car (the lower end model Mercedes Benz which you financed by signing over your current vehicle) containing an expensive stereo and a cellular phone, your woman has contacted me through my pager indicating that we should rendezvous at midnight.

    Where you at? Flippin' jobs, playin' car notes?
    While I'm swimmin' in ya women like the breast stroke
    Right stroke, left stroke what's the best stroke
    Death stroke - tongue all down her throat
    Nuthin' left to do but send her home to you
    I'm through - can ya sing the song for me, boo?

    You, on the other hand, jump from job to job, barely able to maintain payments on the Mercedes Benz you purchased for your woman. Meanwhile, I continue to engage in sexual intercourse and commit lewd osculatory acts with your women. My only remaining option is to request that they leave my home and return to you because I have reached orgasm and no longer have a need for their presence.

    So, what's it gonna be? Him or me?
    We can cruise the world with pearls
    Gator boots for girls
    The envy of all women, crushed linen
    Cartier wrist-wear with diamonds in 'em
    The finest women I love with a passion
    Ya man's a wimp, I give that ass a good thrashin'

    The ultimate decision rests with you. Whom do you choose as your sexual partner. I can take you on cruises around the world. I will dress you in the finest jewelery and footwear. You will be envied by women worldwide in your fine clothes and jewelery. There is a special place in my heart for beautiful women. I will defeat your man in an altercation because he is effeminate.

    High fashion - flyin' into all states
    Sexin' me while your man masturbates
    Isn't this great? Your flight leaves at eight
    Her flight lands at nine, my game just rewinds
    Lyrically I'm supposed to represent
    I'm not only the client, I'm the player president

    You will be dressed in finest clothes on the runways of Paris. I will fly you to every state to shop for fine clothes and jewelery. You will enjoy sexual intercourse with me and your man will be forced to pleasure himself through manual stimulation. What a life! I'll return you to LaGuardia in time to catch your 8 o'clock flight. The timing is perfect becuase I have scheduled a date with a second woman who arrives at the same gate at 9 o'clock. I'll seduce her in the same way that I seduced you. I rap well and I am a positive reflection of my hometown. Not only am I a sexually deviant, misogynistic, immoral, wealthy, male prostitute, but I also sit on the board of directors of the organization that governs others of my kind.

    hehehe, in a similar vein
    Sir Mix-a-lot in Latin
    from http://www.livejournal.com/users/quislibet/164084.html
    De clunibus magnis amandis oratio
    Mixaloti equitis

    mehercle!
    (By Hercules!)
    Rebecca, ecce! tantae clunes isti sunt!
    (Rebecca, behold! Such large buttocks she has!)

    amica esse videtur istorum hominum rhythmicorum.
    (She appears to be a girlfriend of one of those rhythmic-oration people.)
    sed, ut scis,
    (But, as you know)
    quis homines huiusmodi intellegere potest?
    (Who can understand persons of this sort?)
    colloquuntur equidem cum ista eo tantum, quod scortum perfectum esse videtur.
    (Verily, they converse with her for this reason only, namely, that she appears to be a complete whore.)
    clunes, aio, maiores esse!
    (Her buttocks, I say, are rather large!)
    nec possum credere quam rotondae sint.
    (Nor am I able to believe how round they are.)
    en! quam exstant! nonne piget te earum?
    (Lo! How they stand forth! Do they not disgust you?)
    ecce mulier Aethiops!
    (Behold the black woman!)

    magnae clunes mihi placent, nec possum de hac re mentiri.
    (Large buttocks are pleasing to me, nor am I able to lie concerning this matter.)
    quis enim, consortes mei, non fateatur,
    (For who, colleagues, would not admit,)
    cum puella incedit minore medio corpore
    (Whenever a girl comes by with a rather small middle part of the body)
    sub quo manifestus globus, inflammare animos
    (Beneath which is an obvious spherical mass, that it inflames the spirits)
    virtute praestare ut velitis, notantes bracas eius
    (So that you want to be conspicuous for manly virtue, noticing her breeches)
    clunibus profunde fartas(*1) esse
    (Have been deeply stuffed with buttock?)
    a! captus sum, nec desinere intueri possum.
    (Alas! I am captured, nor am I able to desist from gazing.)
    o dominola mea, volo tecum congredi
    (My dear lady, I want to come together with you)
    pingereque picturam tui.
    (And make a picture of you.)
    familiares mei me monebant
    (My companions were trying to warn me)
    sed clunes istae libidinem in me concitant.
    (But those buttocks of yours arouse lust in me.)
    o! cutis rugosa glabraque! (*2)
    (O skin wrinkled and smooth!)
    dixistine te in meum vehiculum intrare velle?
    (Did you say you wish to enter my vehicle?)
    in arbitrio tuo totus veni
    (I am entirely at your disposal)
    quia non es mediocris adsecula.
    (Because you are not an average hanger-on.)
    vidi illam saltantem.(*3)
    (I have seen her dancing.)
    obliviscere igitur blanditiarum! (*3a)
    (Forget, therefore, about blandishments!)
    tantus sudor! tantus umor!
    (Such sweat! Such moisture!)
    vehor quasi in curru quadrigarum! (*4)
    (I am borne along as if by a four-horse chariot!)
    taedet me in diurnis legendi
    (I am tired of reading in the gazettes)
    planas clunes gratiores iudicari.
    (That flat buttocks are judged more pleasing.)
    rogate quoslibet Aethiopes: responsum erit
    (Ask any black men you wish: the answer will be)
    se libentius expletiores (*5) anteponere.
    (Rather that they prefer fuller ones.)
    o consortes (quid est?) o consortes (quid est?)
    (O colleagues [What is it?] O colleagues [What is it?])
    habent amicae vestrae magnas clunes? (certe habent!)
    (Do your girlfriends have large buttocks? [They certainly have!])
    hortamini igitur ut eas quatiant (ut quatiant!)
    (Encourage them therefore to shake them! [To shake them!])
    ut quatiant! (ut quatiant!)
    (To shake them! [To shake them!)
    ut quatiant illas clunes sanas!
    (To shake those healthy buttocks!)
    domina mea exstat a tergo! (*6)
    (My mistress stands out behind!)

    [Etc.]

    _______
    (*1) Any apparent connection with flatulence, even in this context, is purely coincidental.
    (*2) The original doesn't make much sense either. Is it a cellulite reference? -- ADDENDUM 10/24/2003: The reading of the text here is a problem which has much exercised the scholarly community, with attempts to explain "rumpled smooth skin," or to suggest that it is a pun (a lame one, if you ask me) on Rumplestiltskin. But today steelneko confirms that the line should be "Ooh, rub all of that smooth skin" (o! cutem glabram totam tere [or terere volo]) according to the official site sirmixalot.info.
    (*3) Or saltare?
    (*3a) I can find no obvious Latin expression that implies "romantic courtship." -- ADDENDUM 10/14/03: Amores has been suggested, but that can also be used for purely sexual liaisons, which is clearly the goal here, and so not to be thus dismissed.
    (*4)All right, how would you say "got it goin' like a Turbo 'Vette"? And what exactly is "goin'" here? I have chosen to understand that the unnamed woman's extraordinary callipygy has inspired a primal response in the narrator, rather than that she "has got it goin' on," i.e., that she "is all that" -- although the later lines (not included here) concerning Fonda's Honda and the speaker's anaconda can, ultimately, be invoked in support of either interpretation. -- ADDENDUM 10/24/03: I have heard from several readers that the music video suggests that this line should rather be interpreted along the lines of "she shakes her posterior most vigorously."
    (*5) Or uberiores? Although that's perhaps better reserved for a different fetish.
    (*6) This line is not as succinct as the original, to be sure. -- ADDENDUM 10/24/03: I wish I'd said puella here, as domina suggests a power relationship different from the English original.
