In December 2007, to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the founding of Delicious Vinyl, electroclash queen Peaches created a remix of Wild Thing by LA musician Tone Loc.
[Verse 1: Tone Loc]
Workin' all week, 9 to 5 for my money
So when the weekend comes, I go get live with the honey
Rollin' down the street, I saw this girl and she was pumpin'
I winked my eye, she got into the ride, went to a club was jumpin'
Introduce myself as Loc she said, "You're a liar"
I said, "I got it goin' on baby doll and I'm on fire"
Took her to the hotel she said, "You're the king"
I said, "Be my queen if you know what I mean and let's do the wild thing"
[Hook: Tone Loc]
Wild thing
[Verse 2: Peaches]
At a co-ed sauna, sweatin' out the toxins
With outdoor booths and nakedness, I couldn't help my gawkin'
The steam began to rise, and so did little Ricky
He slid on over, touched himself, and told me he was sticky
I sprayed him down with water, his skin was all aglow
He flexed his 'ceps and arched the rest and claimed to be my hoe
I said, "Let's meet here weekly, and be my sauna fling,"
The hotter it gets, I get all wet and go crazy for the wild thing
[Hook: Tone Loc & Peaches, Tone Loc, Peaches]
Wild thing
Wild thing
Wild thing
Wild thing
Wild thing
Wild thing
[Verse 3: Tone Loc, Peaches]
Shoppin' at the mall, looking for some gear to buy
I saw this girl, she cool rocked my world, and I had to adjust my fly
He said he liked to roleplay, I looked down and he looked up
He was on the floor, got on all fours and licked me like a pup
She looked at me and smiled and said, "You have plans for the night?"
I said, "Hopefully if things go well, I'll be with you tonight"
Then he acted Muhammad Ali, and said like a bee, he'd sting
He jumped all around and screamed real loud, "I'm the greatest at the wild thing"
Hey, hey
[Hook: Tone Loc & Peaches]
Wild thing
Wild thing
Wild thing
Wild thing
Wild thing
[Break: Tone Loc & Peaches]
W-w-w-wild
[Hook: Tone Loc & Peaches]
Wild thing
Wild thing
Wild thing
