Burger King has a hilarious new commercial for the new 99 cent kid’s meals with Spongebob Squarepants toys. The BK king mascot sings a Spongebob Squarepants version of Sir Mix-a-lot’s Baby Got Back. Sir Mix-a-lot even appears in the ad!
Watch the video:
Lyrics:
I like square butts and I cannot lie
Squid and Sea Star can’t deny
When a sponge walks in, four corners and his pen
Like he got phone book implants, the crowd shouts
All the ladies stare
Dang those pants are square!
Swimming through the seaweed tangle
Is a butt with sharp right angles
Now Sponge Bob, I wanna get witch-ya
‘Cuz you’re making me rich-ah
Underwater, we keep it grungy
‘Cuz everybody knows that ‘He so spongey!’
Ooh, Rumplespongeskin
You dance, but your hips don’t bend
So groove it and move it
If you got caboose, then prove it
Sponge Bob is dancing
And Squidward is glancing
He’s hatin’… wet
He’s got Sponge Bob runnin’ his set
I’m tired of all these chairs
They don’t accommodate these squares
Take the average ???? tell him that
You gotta have square back
Mr. Krab! (yeah)
Patrick! (yeah)
Has Sponge Bob got the butt? (oh yeah)
Then shake it (shake it)
Shake it (shake it)
Shake that cubicle butt
Sponge Bob got back
(Naw, dude, I said cubicle, not booty-ful. Don’t trip. Yeah baby, when it comes to sea life, curves ain’t got nothin’ to do with Bob’s selection. 2 x 2 x 2 square trousers, working that black belt, looking like dotted lines. That’s how Sponge Bob like to rock them threads baby.)
A word to the DC sponges who wanna get wit it
And watch Sponge Bob kick it
I gotta be straight when I say you gotta scrub ’til the break of dawn
Bob got it goin’ on, been known to rock him a thong
Them round butts won’t admit it
But they’d wear that gear if they could fit it
You can draw his body on paper
His waistline really don’t taper
Your girlfriend wants to squeeze him
Wanna push his pores and tease him
But Sponge Bob ain’t gonna have too much of that squeezin’
You other sponges don’t want none unless you rock square buns!
To the new sponges in the magazines, you ain’t it Miss Thang
We rock them cubes, gals and dudes
Put it down at the goo lagoon
Some other box must get jealous
At the moves that come from square fellas
See Bob and they wanna get him
But Sandy Cheeks he won’t let ‘em
If you happen to wander on land
And you wanna be a square butt fan
And drive the crew right to Burger King
And give that sponge a ring
Sponge Bob got back!

Yes, just what we all want to teach preschoolers, to be flaunting and staring at butts. If we want to teach girls to dance like strippers and boys to be perverts, we need to start young – like pre-k. And all thanks to Burger King and Nickelodeon for their sexualization of preschoolers.
Re: Burger King/Sponge Bob commercial
This commercial is sickening. Any commercial or program calling attention to young girls butts on public TV is not acceptable by any standards and should be removed immediately. It’s bad enough we already have to filter immoral programs and garbage shows presented on most channels today, from the eyes of our young children. Now, an all American food chain is stooping to this level to sell burgers. It’s just another example of the deterioration in standards of modern day media and we the people are getting fed up. Where has good programing decision making gone? Where have those who used commonsense, morals, intelligence and good clean humor in the decision making of what is considered appropriate standards, gone?
I guess everyone is just sitting back and letting the evil, that has infiltrated all forms the media business, take over. Well, I’ll tell you what, this kind of trash may sell crap music to our teens, who think it’s cool because they aren’t offered much by way of better alternatives but, it isn’t going to sell burgers to families or people fed up with this sort of thing being used in promotions. Who ever the moron was that allowed this commercial to be released may have just doomed Burger King or at leased drastically hurt sales especially if America decides to boycott them because of it. This just might be the straw that pushes people to their limit. Our whole family as well as most people we know have already decided to no longer support Burger King.
Someone ought to wake up and pull it off the air now, if it isn’t already to late.
PS
Those of you who don’t find this commercial unacceptable, support it or have to make rude comments will just show your imaturity, imorality or just plain ignorance. Hopefully when you are a few years older and have children of your own to protect, you’ll understand. So, until then, just try to listen and learn.
We don’t have enough issues with sexual attacks on woman, now child will learn from BK that it’s cool to go up to a woman and measure her ass. Even more fun if you are in a costume.
Whoppers must destroy brain cells, because that is the only explanation for the BK decision to put this junk on the air.
Call them and let them know!

you are over reacting BIG time it’s a freakin’ commecial to sell k meals…..dont tell me that when u 1st saw this u didnt laugh[giggles count too]
Anti-mom:
No, I didn’t laugh. I thought of my own daughters and how this glamorized the sexualization of women was targetting a young audience. The problem is people are so numb to this garbage that they can’t even recognize it when it’s right in front of their faces.
All of you parents who thought this was funny should be ashamed. Your children have horrible examples of parents and I can only imagine what they’re going to turn out like. I hope you like having grandchildren when your children are 15. I for one am horrified by it. I think we should start something to get this dirt off of daytime TV. Antimom you should be ashamed and have your children taken away (if it hasnt been done already)
It is both funny and sick at the same time. I’m just wondering, at the board meeting where this concept was introduced, did no one present see the inappropriateness of it? How is that possible?
Your website is so great that i love it very much. Welcome to visit our website at anytime!
Oh, come on! It was a joke! A parody! It was FUNNY! It’s not Burger King’s fault, and they weren’t talking about girls’ butts, It was about Spongebob’s. And it’s not Sir-Mix-a-Lot’s fault your children listen to him and if they’re old enough to get it, and they let themself act like perverts or hookers, it’s the parent’s fault. I’m 11, and when I saw this, I laughed. I didn’t buy short-shorts and halter tops. Despite popular belief, children aren’t nearly as impressionable as adults say. Sure, there are exceptions to every rule, but overall, we do what our parents do. They act like pimps, we act like pimps. Most likely, the reason I’m talking like this is because my mother does. You’re just placing blame on people who are keeping up with the time. Jeez, take a pill.
