General Larry Platt is too old to be competing in American Idol as he is almost 63, but as Simon said:

"I have a horrible feeling that song could be a hit," is all Simon could muster by the end of it, adding, "I don't think this is the last we'll hear from you."

Pants On The Ground has some truly inspriring lyrics as well such as:

Pants on the ground
Pants on the ground
Lookin' like a fool with your pants on the ground

With the gold in your mouth
Hat turned sideways
Pants hit the ground
Call yourself a cool cat
Lookin' like a fool
Walkin' downtown with your pants on the ground

Get it up, hey!
Get your pants off the ground
Lookin' like a fool
Walkin' talkin' with your pants on the ground.

Get it up, hey!
Get your pants off the ground
Lookin' like a fool with your pants on the ground


(Repeat second verse)

Simon stops him at this point... too bad.

I found this hilarious!!  I enjoyed it so much and couldn't get enough.  It made me laugh so much.  After American Idol, I went to the internet and brought up the song and any News items about Pants on the Ground.  I was surprised how quickly there was so much information on the internet and Utube so quickly.  Last night I phoned my sister long distance and started singing the song to her, because I know she loves American Idol.  She started laughing when I was singing the song.  Then we were talking about it.  I watched it again today, and it still makes me laugh.  Greatest song, ever!!!!

Edited my add to the lyrics ... Pants on the ground.Pants on the ground.Lookin’ like a fool with your pants on the ground.   Call yourself a cool cat.Lookin' like a fool rat.Walkin' downtown with your pants on the ground.   Cap turned sideways, Where you try’ng to go? Shuffling back and forth makes you move real slow.   Pull you pants, Up! And put your cap on straight. It will help you walk faster so you won’t be late.   Get ‘em up, Now! Get ‘em up, Hey! Get your pants pulled up. Put on a belt today!   Pants on the ground.Pants on the ground.Lookin' like a fool with your pants on the ground.   Call yourself a cool cat.Lookin' like a fool rat.Walkin' downtown with your pants on the ground.   Get ‘em up, Now! Get ‘em up, Hey! Get your pants pulled up. Put on a belt today!   Pants on the ground.Pants on the ground.STOP lookin' like a fool with your pants on the ground!

I was so horrible when hearing General Larry Platt "PANTS ON THE GROUND" but, with the sense of humor it is touchy to care enough the kids and old for the next  generation of his song ever imagined. I think General Larry Platt deserved his medal of Valor for his service in the future generation. I salute you General...your song will be famous ever. Please send ask some producer to the make movie for his greatness.
