Lyrics:
All my lazy teenage boasts are now high precision ghosts
And they're coming round the track to haunt me.
When she looks at me and laughs I remind her of the facts
I'm the king of rock 'n' roll completely
Up from suede shoes to my baby blues
Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque
Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque
The dream helps you forget you ain't never danced a step
You were never fleet of foot, hippy.
All the pathos you can keep for the children in the street
For the vision I have had is sweeping
New broom, this room, sweep it clean
Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque
Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque
High kickin' dandy, fine figure fine cut a fine figure fine oh yeah ;
Long legged candy, fine figure fine cut a fine figure fine oh yeah ; - Hudba
Who in 2024 is listening to this classic ?😉😉
Saul Goodman does
❤❤
me for sure. classic shit
sshit meaning good stuff...I had a few drinks
Me x
Yo!!!! Desde Mar del Plata Argentina!
Can you imagine that I never heard this song until 2020? My life is changed for the better.
So fun 🥴
Same here
GreasyFilms2016 WHAT ?! you are just now hearing this song, wow :) I should send you my playlist I grew up with these songs
Im just listening to it thanks to Im not okay with this... 😭😂
Soundtrack of i am not okay with this and the end of f***ing world are the best!!
Prefab Sprout. Still a great and talented band in 2024.
Und wer traut sich das als Mann 😂. Ja der Text ist bekannt . Mfg aus Helvetia GS
I lived in London and met a guy from Albuquerque. Imagine my joy when he invited me to his motherland and I finally got to sing "hot dog, jumping frog , Albuquerque" to some bewildered New Mexicans on a Saturday night in the city centre.
On Karaoke?
No, it was outside a gay bar called Sidewinders, I think. Nobody had a clue about the song. The good people of Albuquerque hadn't a clue! @@user-wo6bx1ln1f
😂
Best pop song ever made...when I was 20 I worked in a petrol station in Suffolk, UK.....I had a Prefab Sprout album playing in the back-office......in walks Martin.....I asked him for his autograph and he said "Nobody's ever asked me for that before..."...we both laughed....lovely man....I've kept it in my bedside draw , tucked in the CD case, all my life...right by me now.
That’s so cool. He seems a down to earth fella. I’ve loved this song since it came out in 88 I was a kid and loved singing Hot dog jumping frog Albuquerque again and again.
Still do tbh
What petrol station dude ?
Thetford lad here, well I live in Bangkok. Hi t the enemy.
I moved from Glasgow to Cheshire back then 88 great times the Moose
Lovely story to know. Thanks dude.
(*Stan dancing happily*)
Santino Jann aww 👉👈
That's so adorable
Lol
When she looks at me and laughs 🤣🤣 I reminded her of the facts 👁👁
The more I hear it, the more I am convinced this is one of the great pop masterpieces of the 80's. It just gets better.
Funny how after 35 years and doing 1000s of different things in 1000s of different locations in my life this 1 song can take me to that exact moment in time back in 1988 when this song was playing on the car radio! The roof was fully open and the sun was beaming down, which has left me with a wonderful memory ....The rest of that day I have no idea what went on
CZcams is closest thing we get to a time machine, brings back memories i had forgotten
Here From "I AM NOT OKAY WITH THIS" First Time I've Heard This Song! Searched It On CZcams As Soon As It Played. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I was watching the show, Shazamed the song, now I'm here!
I am NOT ok with this! Having to wait (probably) a year for the next season. That's one bad thing about streaming services if it's a brand new show, and they release one season every year. Or the show doesn't get renewed. Oh, I'm not here from the show, I'm here from the late 80s (I think) when the song was released. Sounds as good now as it did then. Great music on the programme as well.
I looooooove this song 😂😂🥰
Watched it and remembered, I bought this when it came out....
I'm so happy that I found I AM NOT OKAY WITH THIS. It's such a good show and I was not expecting the ending. And I found my new favourite song.
My uncle was one of the dancing hot dogs
comment of the week. laughed out loud. and if that's true, it's still funny as fuck.
@@MitchelGant hahaha his comment is epic..I want to believe it. Can't stop laughing when i see them dancing. He must be so proud
A hero.
My uncle was the frog...😬
For real?
Just recently discovered Prefab Sprout and I think they are awesome! I missed them the first time around and wondered just what was I listening to back then?! I’m 71.
Paddy McAloon is such a great wordsmith:
'All my lazy teenage boasts are now high precision ghosts, and they're coming round the track, to haunt me.'
I mean, c'mon, that's genius!
💯 Hits hard!
It must be torture to be a one hit wonder and to have had it at a young age lol
@@MadDannyWest they had a few hits, including cars and girls
@@alexhiggins4life I was talking about the character they're singing as in the king of rock n roll
then it follows with a food, a species of anphibian and a town new mexico
"hey syd, i know homecoming can be lame but i was thinking that we could be lame together."
'go to homecoming with m- uoh that was forcefull' *giggle*
I can hear this
syd, go to homecomin- ee that was *forceful*
*its not a fuckin clearance sale* lol i really laugh at that lmao
No that’s f ing stupid
Always and forever, thank you to Great Britain and the British people whose creativity, since the 1960s, has given the rest of the World hundreds of unique bands such as the Prefab Sprout and music of unparalleled beauty, quirkiness and atmosphere. What would our lives have been without British bands? Thank you from Sicily.
Aw, thanks from the UK...
You are most welcome.. Xx
that means alot we have some good music even though dean martin was american thats amore was a classic
Here, here!! As an American you all knock the socks off us musically, not just in creativity, and fun catchy pieces like this, but British song writers have unparalleled depth in their music. British songs have so much variety, they can invoke feelings to the point of tears, or make you want to tear up the dance floor.... I love you guys, I live in the UK now and I'm just discovering more brilliant music we never got in the States....
@Castlegrad Off the Wall and Thriller were both written by a British bloke, Rob Temperton. He died last year actually. Massive loss to music everywhere.
@Castlegrad Yes my friend, I agree. The UK could never have produced a James Brown and thanks for the heads up regarding Fela Kuti. All the best.
Possibly the finest pop song yet.
One of a number....
Driving in the car in the 80's..
Listening in 2022.. Still totally
"Hot dog 🌭 Jumping frog 🐸 Albuquerque"
Awesome!! ❤🎶
Agreed!
I adored this band and loved all their tracks, clever/quirky lyrics great melody and cool voices! We were truly blessed to enjoy these bands as they emerged, I loved my youth!
We were young ( 8 or 9) and always thought he was singing " I love cookies" :D
@@Groovieglitter That is so sweet! There are many songs that I really laugh at now when I hear them, as I still sing the words that I thought I was hearing , it is so funny how we just accepted it without worrying about what the lyrics really were! Thanks for sharing it was a lovely comment:)
Legend lyrics
Who’s here after watching Stanley dance to this in I AM NOT OKAY WITH THIS!💛
Joseph McCarthy So adorable
I like your picture
I haven’t listened to this song in a very long time, thank you stanley🥺
Exactly this lol!
Yeah, me too, but I knew this song from my youth.
Surreal hearing this. Immediately invokes strong memories of waking up with this track playing in the background on a warm summers day years ago as a teenager, an endless day ahead going out to the beach with mates. Mum and dad were still alive, they were downstairs, watching a bit of telly, everything ok, nothing to worry about. Great memories.
Such a beautifully painted memory. Can honestly picture it. Thanks for sharing!
Great coment, cheers from Portugal.
And great music.
Those were the days mate !!!
You've just summed up everything!
Unfortunately that's life, but you will see mum and dad again x
que suerte haber tenido 25 años en 1988 y bailar este tema que ahora en 2024 es leyenda ❤
Old enough to remember when this was originally released. Who's with me?
I was 9 when this was released. When Loves Breaks Down is even better in my opinion.
I was 10 when this came out
“I Am Not Okay With This” brought me here.
Same
same
Same
Same hahah
Like everybody starting now...
I'm not here for "I am not okay with this". I'm proud my dad showed me this type of music but I admit Wyatt's lipsync was awesome!
it was such a vibe!
same :))
cool
My dad played this for me when I was a kid and I thought it was the coolest song ever. Needless to say it made no sense to me as a kid and listening to it again as an adult has not cleared anything up
"fortunately" lmao why is being introduced to good music by ashow a bad thing?? let people live.
I’m a metal head and this is an absolutely sensational song
As a Black Metal fan, I would have to say that this is the greatest song ever written.....love it
As an extreme lover of heavy metal and black rock this song is a shot of pure adrenaline happiness into the veins hah!
Metal heads are like the vegans of music.
I love this tune and I really Do love Heavy Metal since 1990🤘🤘🤘🤘
I love this endorsement.
@@mercian9425 How do you know someone is a metal fan/vegan? They never fucking shut up about it.
I'm second hand from I'm Not Okay... love all these cool soundtracks in shows these days
we can thank vinyl coming back and vintage style into trend for all the awesome music we're being introduced to
i can relate
Singing this in the shower before asking a girl to homecoming really hits different.
ShurikenHavoc too bad she’s a lesbian
Lillie The Lynx Gachas and she’s in love with her best friend
and she can blow off people's heads if her emotions get too out of hand
hmm shame
Best comment
I was 10 years old back in 1988, this is 1 of the songs that stick out more from that year, so many great hits....those of our generation we were blessed to live out our childhood back in the 80s
Was 4 when you were 10.
15
Paddy, Morrissey, Paul Buchanan & Lloyd Cole. All the great stories have been written... not in short stories but pop songs. So thankful that I lived in that era.
I'm a huge 80's fan and I can't believe I've never run into this gem before!
Good for you
Same!!

Was 111 likes at time of this cement,now 127 ....
i’m gonna miss ‘i’m not okay with this’ :(
Me too :(
me too
I'm 26. I have to say, you guys who grew up with this had it damned good. Excellent sound. Keep on keeping on you glorious bastards.
Okay i just got in to this band and i can't believe I've missed out on them all these years. This is top tier songwriting and musicianship
Yes, though this isn't really their best song , just their biggest hit.... :) (very ironic, seeing that the character in the lyrics *is* a one-hit wonder guy from the 1950s)
Correct. Paddy is possibly one of the best writers of his generation. The Thomas Dolby-produced trilogy of Steve McQueen/From Langley Park to Memphis/Jordan the Comeback is unsurpassed in pop rock imho. What a band
Everytime i listen to this, 10 years are added to my life span
Must be the thought of hot dogs
here from I AM NOT OKAY WITH THIS, i heard this song 1st time and its so goooood
This is a masterpiece of pop music. I remember hopping around the garden to this in 1989! It’s an incredible song even today. Timeless and sound funky
Hoppin' about like a frawwwwg? 🙂
One of the finest songs ever made.
I cannot believe the CZcams algorithm blessed me like this, this song is off the chain
Prefab Sprout is one of my favorite bands and one of the most underrated in history.
When I was school one of the teachers was the main singers wife
Our teenage music was so pure and innocent compared to today's pop music. Love it !!
‘Relax’ -Frankie Goes Goes To Hollywood 1984 ……just saying 😂
Went to school with my old man did Holly Johnson, but yeah if it comes on one of the classic music channels while the kids are around have to dive for the remote.
It took me 36 years to get he says “Albuquerque” 😂
I want cookie. Right? 😂
I still think he's singing something about "fun kinda funky funkified, oh yeah!" in that middle-eight before the third verse 😃
I was 18 when it was on the radio for the 1st time. One of the best 80s summer memories. True songs never die !
Cool I was 8. Good memories.
My baby blues 💙

It’s in the description 🔫
F
Now tell me what it's all about?
I THOUGHT IF WAS I WANT COOKIE NOT ALBUQUERQUE, my life has been a lie.
Indeed
Some observations after coming across this for my first time moments ago:
1. Where has this been my whole life?
2. This is just the right amount of kooky.
3. I want to live inside this music video.
4. I think this song just saved my life.
5. There is the exact right amount of Albuquerque in this video.
6. I freaking LOVE everything about all of this.
7. I seriously thought I was hallucinating when I first watched it.
8. I am so glad these wonderful people had the audacity to make this fine art.
9. This song/video is sheer genius.
10. A novelty song about a fictional novelty song performer that doesn't sound like a novelty song. Brilliant.
11. This seems like someones fever dream that magically got caught on camera.
12. I really wish I'd seen this back in the day so I could have gone years without knowing anything further and just enjoyed the mystery because I'm about to go down the rabbit hole deep on this.
i loved to hate this when i was 13 when this came out but now, as an adult , it is a guilty pleasure... the song was definitly a worm that burrowed deep!
Friday night 87, packed pub, on she comes, lived it live, epic time
Love your observations. I've been in love with Prefab songs for 30 years
@@Toshackeegan1nil Thank you!
Enjoy the rabbit hole! The Thomas Dolby-produced trilogy of Steve McQueen/From Langley Park to Memphis/Jordan: the Comeback ranks among the best all-time pop rock imho. The right combination of great musicianship, complex, often jazz-inflected arrangements, catchy choruses and brilliant lyrics that few bands manage to achieve (Steely Dan come to mind as another example).
1:34: Whenever I listen to this classic, I'm always in anticipation of that tasty offbeat snare Neil Conti plays in this section.
Yeah, the drums seem to be setting up a different beat/pulse than the main tune through most of the song - Paddy's vocals follow the pulse of the keyboards and guitar, not really the drums - and I think that's an essential part of what makes the song special. The drums are like they wandered in from a different version of the song, and this creates a fluid tension between two different rhythmic layers in the track (most easily heard in the second verse I think).
I am not okay with this squad
yeees
Eyy
"Hot dog 🌭 jumping frog 🐸 Albuquerque".... without a doubt one of the best and catchiest choruses in the history of pop music.
Paddy McAloon.... What a great talent!
Can't believe this entire time I thought it was hot dog, jumping frog, I want cookie
I used to think it was Alba Cookie when I was a little kid. 😂
It’s so weird because that chorus shouldn’t even work in theory at all….and yet it’s just lodged in your brain forever! 😊
Oh wow, I thought it was have a cookie
Incomparable . .. genius
It's Old Skool Time
The godfathers of Blur, Pulp and Suede.
Definitely

Albuquerque
I travelled in the U.S. last week and visited Albuquerque. This song started to play in my head. Finally came hear to listen to it and watch video. Possibly first time in 30 years to hear it. Fond memories from 1988 like MTV, first car, first girlfriend.
2022. still loving this song
Great hit. I remember this when it came out. 1987 ? It was from the album From Langley park to Memphis, I remember buying it. 👍❤️🇬🇧 Good old Paddy McAloon
May 1988
was that the bite of 87?@
I was so surprised and just filled with joy when I heard this playing in that new Netflix show haha, such a fun song
Which show?
@@blackmalcolmthehomeofhomer442" i am not okay with this" its on netflix
Stanley Barber is best boii❣️❣️
my great grandmother use to play this in the car all the time when i was little and it would always make me happy
Brits just owning all the best tunes as always.
Happy memories to my Eighties careless childhood
The new Boots ad brought me here. I haven't heard this song in about 10 years. Classic.
I agree and I had NO fucking idea what the name of the song was only i thought it was Hot Dog. Thanks Boots
me tooooo :)
Such an under-rated group. Pure magic, damn this makes me 16 again. Reminds me of my dear friend Stef who passed away this year. She loved this song too. She was crazy in high school, had already booted from two others, we were always there for each other. Rest in peace my dear misfit partner in friendship.
Pat O not underrated record exec wimps gutless
Yeah, Prefab Sprout were easily one of the best British pop groups of the 1980s, that didn't get a lot of recognition.
@@dw89music73 That's because there were Sooo many bands in 80s who were so good... too many to name... that's why thank fuck for youtube coz we can revisit! Thank You YOUTUBe (much as I hate you too).
RIP x
so sorry for your loss xxx
Listened today from a radio station that play only music of the 80's and the childhood memories just came back! I missed this song!!!!!
I remember them on Top of The Pops dancing around in costumes. I will always be grateful I got to grow up in the 80's and 90's. 🥰
I remember as a kid watching this video on tv. All this years having the tune in my head but didn't know the name of it or the band. Until a few months ago it was being play on the radio. I started laughing and crying at the same time. It was so surreal. I couldn't believe it. It's been 32 years since i last heard it. Now we sing it with my 3 years old son. Albuquerque!!!
Flashbacks to 8 year old me singing
"hot dog
jumping frog
have a cookie"
That's exactly what my dad said when I showed him this
I hear that as well 🍪
Same. Makes me feel old. 😂
i thought it was im for cookin lmao and i still sing that
lol, I thought me said he loved turkey 😁.
80s pop-rock new wave mystique the fantasy, humour, creativity, romance done all at once as it was done back then!
one of the best alternative and smartest bands ever - vitriolic lyrics and a symbolistic hillarious video - the album is also brilliant . the '80s - indeed, a creative if not eccentric decade.
It remains me those days where we had a safe cities with beautiful people. No haters, no gunners, no bad 5v shows and movies...
This song was in uk tv show called Spaced too! I knew I recognised it when Stanley was singing it - it’s taken me 24 hours to remember what other show it was in! Jessica Hynes sings along to it in the ‘party’ episode.
Spaced was brilliant! Simon peggs masterpiece 👌
I have a crush on daisy from that show 🤣
We have the box set of Spaced and I decided to look this song up. Every time I've watched it I thought she was singing an ad song. I didn't know it was a real pop song. Lol
@@richardwellend3806 i think daisy sang "almond cookie" instead of albquerque..funny thing is is was in abq at the time i looked it up.
@@zaxus211 yes I think she did, she was sooooo cute!! I'm gonna hafta watch my spaced boxset and drool haha
THE BEST songs
Good god this song is still amazing all these years later.
The chorus of this track is an ear worm. It will never leave my head.
Brings back memories of the first summer dating my husband, he would borrow his Dads car every night that summer and we would drive for miles, it was a boiling hot summer and we would have tapes blaring out driving in the English country side,this was one of our favourites.
Paddy is one of the nicest guys you could meet as well as a great song writer
This song still holds it's own in the music world. Great band!!
Holy shit , I just looked it up , it has been 31 years since this tune was released, OMG I am getting old. But it go's without saying , I love love love love love love love this song!
This is the 80s for me. I have so many memories of the 1980s with this song play ing in the background. Can tell in the video the bloke doesn't want to jump in the water. Looking at the trees in the background it's the middle of winter 😂
I was 22 when this song came out and I don't remember ever hearing it. Just discovered it on "I'm Not Ok With This". Keeping it on loop. How did I miss this? It's AWESOME!!!!
I've been singing "I love Cookie" for so long...
I'm 50 now... And I remember when in my bedroom I watched on MTV this great song! Time goes by fast😔
I'm the King of Rock'n'Roll! Magnificent song of the 80's
I remember this song when it was in the charts. I remember the video, dancing hot dogs and that frog. Classic and a brilliant song.
My entire life I thought this song said “hotdog, jumping frog …have a cookie” 🍪😂
is it not?
Who also searched “hotdog jumping Frog”????
Me after watching the best Netflix series ever 😂
me lmaooo hahahahha
"...I am the king od rock'n'roll completely..." 🤣
I googled "Hot Dog, jumping frog, Half a cookie"... i'm french and that's what i hear in the song.. albuquerque WTF?
Me 😂
the King of Rock ’n’ Roll.❤
"Hot dog, jumping frog, Albuquerque" always hits me right there, y'know?
i thought my mum made up this song, she would always sing it to me when i was younger. turns out i’m just a fool 😂
You said it !
😂😂
Who’s here listening to this banger in 2023 !
It's a rainy Winter's day in Cape Town, South Africa and I am grinning ear to ear, listening to this ... Loved it since school days and my 9-year-old is loving it too. Such a great band!
My 9 yr old now loves it 🤗💜
@@BritWit1 😃😍🤩❤
Astonishing
The like twenty absolutely perfect songs these guys have
Agree😇
I remember this song on the radio as a kid, haven't heard for 15 years, nostalgia overload 🎶
The song and video feel like a jolly teenage anthem, much like the Happy Days tv series (which the band must have seen while growing up), but there's an undercurrent of sadness to the lyrics: "All the pretty birds have flown / Now I'm dancing on my own". The rift between glam illusion and sad realities, or between hope and betrayal, is a recurrrent theme in their songs.
This band must be one of the most underrated of all time
absolutely right!!!!!
True!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This song just has a summertime feel about it. Best enjoyed while enjoying life in the sunshine. When you hear this it’s impossible not to feel good.
Incrível essa banda
filmed in winter as you can see all the leaves off the trees
Yeah, you can tell this is a digital recording, there's no way they would have got it to sound like this the analog way (practically no natural reverb, all notes are basically start-stop and even Paddy's voice sounds a bit like a ghost, there are no low frequencies to it). I figure this too helps to create the feeling of a big, sunny landscape with no edges in space and time...
I miss the 80s. Music was so fun back then.
My friends listening this song:
Me: JuMPinG FrOoog aaaALBuuuUrQUeque
Who is here after watching I AM NOT OKAY WITH THIS😁
Yesssirrrr
Meeee
😂😂😂🙋🏻♂️
Oh,yes and hadn’t heard it for 3 decades!
damn... guess im not the only one
Amazing that this song only made it to number 7 in the British charts and didn’t have any significant commercial success outside the UK. And yet here it stands as one of the all time greats of the 80s ❤
It was huge in Republic of Ireland.
@@bazscott4633 i do know that but that’s why I said significant - Ireland’s population is pretty small.
And it was still their biggest hit in the UK! Oh my...But they were never really a singles band, definitely an album band. Paul McCartney knowingly later told Paddy McAloon, "That song is your "My Ding-a-Ling"" (referring to Chuck Berry's early 1970s cover hit) and that's kinda true. :)
Most underrated band ever.
My Childhood of '80s Bought me here. I'm quite Lucky and fortunate that I'm Kid of '80s 🙏
I AM NOT OKAY WITH THIS
Herine royal Guetse why? jk I came from it too
You know the 80s were amazing you will never get videos like this ever again, so retro yet so timeless. Abc etc you know looking back is so much better than looking forward.
The Irish nightclubs in North London..we had such fun dancing to this..very happy times
it's been like, four days and the IANOWT people have already claimed this song.
Yep
That's what happens when a song suits a certain character or show too much :/ like the toh fandom and little miss perfect
