Explanation

This comic is a take on the 90s TV series "Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" and its much parodied and repeated theme song. Consequently, the song coming out of Cueball's TV right now is a take on that song. Doggerel is a derogatory term for verse considered of little literary value or a comic verse of irregular measure. And obviously, the song is updated with an Adele reference who is a very popular singer over the last year or so.

Doggerel verse? Mixed with rap? What is this blasphemy? Davidy22[talk] 13:46, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

It seems that the 'click' was precisely timed so that Cueball could avoid hearing 'philadelphia' rhyme with 'adele for you'. I strongly support this decision. 108.162.219.223 06:10, 23 January 2014 (UTC)

Agreed, added to explanation. --Someone Else 37 (talk) 03:29, 24 April 2014 (UTC)

So kick back, relax, lemme put on some Adele for ya, while I tell you why I'm running for mayor of Philaphiu? I used Google News BEFORE it was clickbait (talk) 20:29, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
