HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — It seem as if everyone has a “Pants on the Ground” remix in them.
The catchy track has spawned remixes all over the Web after 62-year-old General Larry Platt captivated American Idol viewers Wednesday night with his performance of “Pants on the Ground.”
“Pants on the ground, pants on the ground, lookin’ like a fool with your pants on the ground,” go the veteran’s lyrics. “With the gold in your mouth, hat turned sideway, pants hit the ground / Call yourself a cool cat, looking like a fool, walkin’ downtown with your pants on the ground!”
“I have a horrible feeling that song could be a hit,” admitted judge Simon Cowell.
While Platt’s song may be the biggest hit of the season, he missed the cut since he is well over the show’s 28-year age limit.
Here’s one of the many “Pants on the Ground” remixes that have popped up on YouTube.
