What does 'swass' mean?

I keep seeing people post, "Don't you wish your boyfried was swass like me?", but I can't figure out what the hell 'swass' means. Went to www.dictionary.com to try and look for the word but couldn't find it. Only thing I saw was that it meant 'sweaty ass' in the acronym finder. That doesn't make much sense if you used that definition in the saying, so I can only suspect that its some made-up Internet lingo. I wanna know and wanna know now? So somebody better tell me. k. Thx. Bye. :D

Get busy!

Sir Mix-A-Lot bread the ultimate freak
So cute in a suit, my beats can see
Intelligent freak, wardrobe complete
You can fold my robe, if you be my freak
I got a big Cadillac with the bass in the back
Try to take my freak, boy you must be whack
Bicep's flex, so kiss my neck
Buying pounds of gold with royalty checks
And I'm Swass ...

Don't you wish your boyfriend was swass like me (swass)
Don't you wish your boyfriend was swass like me (swass)
Don't you wish your boyfriend was swass like me (swass)
Don't you wish your boyfriend was swass like me

Gold gettin live in a fresh fruit vest
I'm the king of the beat in the great northwest
Packin more dollars than chase Manhattan
A, after eaten sure my bill for fatten
Yep, my phone be ringin like you wish yours would
But my girl stays cool cause she looks so good
Punk motherfucker called me weak
Just turn up the bass and feel this beat
Feel my bass drum ...

("Stop it, get silly, swass") - 4X

("Stop it, get silly, swass") - backwards - 4X

Now the ground be shakin, when my bass drum's breakin
("Stop it, get silly, swass")
Suckers in the crowd think the boy be fakin
("Stop it, get silly, swass" - backwards)
Now put this beat in your Nissan truck
("Stop it, get silly, swass")
But don't start cryin when your woofers get stuck
("Stop it, get silly, swass" - backwards)
Check it out ...

(*solo of the beat*)
Hit bigger!

I done 23 points when I count my bank
All imitators I will spank
I'm a freak and I know it, so why not show it
I design my rhymes like a worldwide poet
NEW freaks every week in my contract
So cold with the rap you'll get contact
Innovative beats with a brand new twist
Don't you wish your man could rock like this
Break it down ...

Eighty dollar slippers to wash my car
It attracts more freaks than a beach lifeguard
Ah, imitate me and you'll bring about pain
Better wear dark shades when you look at my chain
Swass, point, no introduction
I come complete with freak instructions
I work for myself don't have no boss
Boy you gotta have brains if you wanna be swass
And I'm swass ...

[Interlude - Female talking]
Oh Mix-A-Lot you know I want to, like you, you know I like you - 4X

swass

noun. A contraction of the words sweat and ass. A non gender-specific term used to describe the sweat found in and around a person's ass crack.

Related to swit, swut, swunt and swall.

The warm weather was nice, until those rollerblading shorts gave her a scary case of swass.

While we're at it, does anyone want to tell me what the fuck "Oh snap!" means? I can't even get a general meaning one someone says it, it doesn't seem to follow any pattern in what they're responding to case to case.

I get the feeling it might be some sort of US pop culture reference I've missed.

That could work, but then the picture of BuddyC with the quote wouldn't make sense. "Dont' you wish your boyfriend was sweaty ass like me?" It's used as an adjective there! Not to mention the fact that most straight women/gay men probably wouldn't want a boyfriend with a sweatier ass. Unless it's not supposed to make sense in that quote, then that'd be fine. I'm so confused!

Oh snap... say it after you've snapped/clicked your fingers, while jerking outwards with your elbow.

It's like 'oh dayyuumm'. But white. I think.
 
Swass was one of Sir Mix Alots songs from the late 80's circa 88-90

Oh Snap they have been using that since at least 87. That has been around at least 4 or 5 pop culture iterations.
 
ahhhhh SWASS. I really think it has to be in all caps for full effect. My iPod played this song on random this morning on my way to work.


my iPod is SWASS:p

God, I'd never have guessed that. Maybe I should just ask straight away next time instead of trying to work it out.

Thats not how I would have pronounced it if I ever used it in a sentence. Good thing I don't just use random slang I hear on the internet in conversation.


Haha, "Oh snap!" I've been using that for years. If something is a really good one then I have a friend who will make a snapping motion with his hands as if he were snapping celery, then I have other friends who will go "Oh snap! That is FRESH!" when he does that. I think we all use that at opportune times, though we always use these terms purely for comedic affect after a good zing, so if you think it is corny that is the point! haha

Around here, we flat out don't use "swass" at all. I don't know if I've ever heard somebody actually say it in regular speech. It just sounds dumb.

We do, however, use the phrase "swamp ass" to describe the state of having a sweaty ass. Now that's a funny phrase.

I second this. A friend and I used to say it in class a lot early in high school because we could say that, while shouting Oh Shit would get us in trouble.
