Funkadelic - Cosmic Slop Lyrics
Ah hear my mother call
Ah hear my mother call
I was one of five born to my mother
An older sister and three young brothers
We seen it kinda rough
But always with a smile
She was sure to try to hide
The fact from us that life was really tough
I can hear my mother call
I can hear my mother call
And at night I hear her call
All the night I hear her call
"Father, Father it's for the kids
Any and everything I did.
Lord knows I meant no wrong...
Lord knows I meant no wrong."
Then the devil sang:
Would you like to dance with me?
We're doing the cosmic slop.
Would you like to dance with me?
We're doing the cosmic slop.
Would you like to dance with me?
We're doing the cosmic slop.
She was well known through the ghettos
Tricks would come and then they go
The neighbors would talk and call her Jezebel
But always with a smile
She was sure to try to hide
The fact from us that she was catching hell
Hey
Hear my mother call
I can hear my mother call
Late at night I hear her call
To the lord I hear her call
She says "Father, Father it's for the kids
Any and everything I did.
Please please don't judge me too strong.
Lord knows I meant no wrong..."
Lord
Oh ooh oh hear my mother call
Oh ooh oh hear my mother call
She said "Father, Father it's for the kids
Any and everything I did.
Please don't judge me too strong"
Hear my mother call
Hear my mother call
Hear my mother call
I can hear my mother call
Hey
I can hear my mother call
I can hear my mother call
Hey
Oh yeah all right yeah I hear her man
Hey hey hey hey heeeey
Hear my mother call
I can hear my mother
Mother
Mother
Mother
Hear my mother call
I can hear my mother call
I can hear my mother call
Late at night
Late at night
I hear her
Call on the Lord
Mother
I can hear my mother call
Hear that brother calling me
Ah hey
Mother mama mama mother
I hear my mother
Hear my mother call
Hear my mother call
Hear my mother call
I can hear my mother call
I hear my mother call
Yeah

My dad introduced me to Parliament and Funkadelic's music. They had PHENOMENAL music!!!! Way to go, George Clinton!!!!
I REMEMBER THE EPISODE OF THE COSBY SHOW WHEN ROBERT & VANESSA WAS LISTENING TO THIS SONG WHILE DOING HOMEWORK IN THE KITCHEN WHILE CLIFF WAS TRYING TO GET SOME PEACE & QUIET. CLASSIC FUNK.
FUNK DIGS DEEP

Man! Them Clean Ghost Notes On The Kit "Tyrone SpeedFeet Lampkin". From Blewfoot.

Omg! I was in HS when this came out. Hanging out in the local city park with some older dudes smoking weed & trying to act grown. 👍🏼😅
Love me some Cosmic Slop
This song came out when I was growing up this was the name I had been listening to this song for almost 50 years this is almost it is it was a dance called cosmic slop it came out in the summer but it took me almost 50 years to hear what he was saying it hit me like a ton of bricks. Wow life will bring about a change with maturity. Keep living.
Cosmic Slop hit's me in the spine every time!
What Kenny doing

facts lmao
I wish I could still smoke.
Wow the reaAL Deal
can it get any funkier?
Oshea Oshea Oshea
Father, Father its four lil kids hearing everything I did. Please, please don't judge me to strong. Lord knows I meant no wrong.
The D.O.C, She's Beautiful But Deadly....he sampled this.
Robert and Vanessa turned me on to this song 😉 (Cosby Show)
Guitar, and Bass are totally in the pocket !
This is a great song , Funkadelic could sing to . Listen to that tight harmony , thats fuzzy haskins , grady thomas ,calvin simon , and of course Mr . George Clinton . The band was funkadelic , the vocalist were Parliament . RIP Eddie Hazel , Glen Goins , Tiki Fullwood , Garry Shider .
I really like the live version much better......
and the devil sang........
Now gone Spectrum in Philly 1973 first concert 16 yo. With Mandrill Bloodstone and Osibisa the spectrum exploded won they did this not to mention came on stage with Big Joint lol many from my Neighborhood in Mount Airy went it was a Blast

cosmic love from italy
Styl Stylistics but you don't stop on the rain tonight
Pe Stylistics people make the world go round
The only reason this song wasn’t a top ten or number one hit was because of the subject matter.
Funkadelic was too funky for the world. MAKE MY FUNK THE P FUNK!
My mother went home in 2011, but I can still her call.
This song is almost too much for the mind. Every time I hear this song I appreciate it more. Just genius. Whoever says Bach, Beethoven, Chopin or any of those guys were greater musical geniuses than George Clinton is either stupid, biased, tasteless, or doing more drugs than the entire P-Funk mob.
What was I Doin? When my Mother called. I was Freeing my mind. And lettin my Asses Follow😁😳
This reminds me of early Funkadelic when they were on Westbound.
Rise In Power, mama, Mrs. Lona Mae Porter!!!!! I love you so much forever!!!!
"Father, it's for the kids."
So glad I have one of those moms.
She did it to make sure I lived.
It is so hard to try and thank her, because she don't wanna remember it.
Gospel funk !!
I personally like the original rather than the later ,the guitar work was carefully detailed and technical even the bass ,2nd& 3rd guitars were in sync & Garry's vocals before his voice was shot could rival any falsetto (can't stand the strain) this is Gary &Ron's best work on guitars
Totally agree! Ron and Garry were on fire here, and of course the intro was second to none.
L energie du Rock et du Funk dans un cocktail explosif. Killer cut
Forever loved one of the greatest group of my time
I heard ron bykowski passed in 2014
Denzel Washington brought me here.
In there interplanetary days CAN'T TOUCH THIS P-FUNK BABY 😎 😎❤️ RELAX
Excellent axe play by Eddie Hazel one of the best axe men of all time 🤘💀♒👁
Eddie did not play on guitar on this album. It was Ron Bykowski (lead) Garry (Rhythm) here. Sorry!
Garry sang and played this mother sail on Mr.Shider👍🏿
The saddest, funkiest song ever.
haha, the shoe shining scene in the Deuce has this song in the background!
The Cosby Show brought me here lol - Vanessa
& Robert listening to this on the radio
The words are deep
Eargasm
Truly blessed to have heard this masterpiece 👊👊💯
Father forgive us sinners...
Does anyone remember when this was playing in the kitchen on the Cosby Show while Vanessa and Robert were studying?? This is how I found out about this song #80sbaby
A Song, for my Grandmother, Gram. 🤩🎸🔥😎👵
sad and funky..childhood memories..
ICE CUBE Made me look for this.
Oh LAWDY!! P-FUNK BABY
hurts so good
every click
Already a masterpiece, and these guys (and gals) even performed it better live. With all of this musical complexity how is that possible? Greatest band of all time and Earth Wind and Fire is second, but not a close second. Doesn't matter what anybody says.
Fuck i miss being 18 and getting toasted to this.
Darkest childhood memories.
The baddest funk band ever. The true Masters of the funk
Just an incredible piece of art!
This is music
Sounds like curtis Mayfield
This song always make me cry...I can hear my mother call.
LOVE YOU Moma
"The Deuce" brought me here.
The Deuce
always come back to this.
Baseline is ferocious
We’re doing the cosmic slop, I’m here because of the movie Roman J. Israel
This is one of the out standing song that heard in the day.That why it always good to Liston to the word you get the picture he'll of a song Johnnie 😎 from LosAngles and Pittsburgh Comic met Slop
Badass song. Too cold. I can hear my mother call.
Thats the first time i heard this. Or maybe its the first time i really listened. Hmm
( ))========THUMP=======D
The most heartbraking and simultaneously funky song ever. You cannot top this.
Best Soul Rock group ever..George Clinton, Buddy Miles, Jimi Hendrix, Mandrill, Osibisa, War, and yes James Brown had the students ear at most campuses Back in the Day.
I always found it interesting that they used/bought the rights to use this song on the Cosby Show Season 2 Episode 19 "Full House"
Vanessa and her boyfriend Robert were listening to it in the kitchen while doing homework together.
Then later in the living room Denise and her Reggae guy friend are 'watching/singing' along to 'Sponji Reggae' by Black Uhuru.
Cosmic Slop and Sponji Reggae? Two of my favorites songs......lol love it
Greatest. Funk. Song. EVER.
sounds like Diamond in the back. great song
MY FAVORITE FROM FUNKADELIC
Gospel for the Ghetto. Both achingly beautiful, and terrifying at the same time, and perhaps George and Bernie's single greatest track.
TRUE STORY.
F U N K Y
shaolin shuffle baby
Isso que é funk,porra.
Timeless Funk!!!!!
I feel safer here.
Free your mind your assess will foll
Low. Now
She said: "Father, Father its for the kids, any and everything I did, please, please don't judge me too strong! Lord knows I meant no wrong. LORD KNOWS I MEANT NO WRONG." Then in comes the Devil with his" Would you like to dance with me, we're doing the Cosmic Slop." That's just like him to come right behind you right after you get off your knees praying.
To show how pro black Bill Cosby is he highlighted this song on the Cosby Show and people unawared let it slip by unnoticed.
awesome
At the same time, one of the most beautiful and scariest songs ever written, and one of the definitive moments in the history of funk.
