It probably refers to a sexual practice. But doesn't everything. : : : : And I think you mean Eminem. : : : The Eminem lyric is a reworking of a Malcolm McLaren single - yes, he of the Sex Pistols fame - from the early 80's called "Buffalo Gals", which features the acutely insightful lines:- : : : "Three buffalo gals go 'round the outside : : : It was an appalling song from memory, trying as it did to combine proto-hiphop with country, but I'll bet the Eminem version is no better. However, I think ESC's suspicions of carnality are a tad misfounded here though, with square-dancing being the original theme. : : : As a typical idle side note, what is it with buffalo and 80's music? I quite distinctly remember Neneh Cherry alleging that she hung "in a buffalo stance" in a far more catchy song from roughly the same era. I have no clue what this means either, but it sounds a heap more risqué to me - though quite possibly because Ms. Cherry was a tad more visually pleasing than Mr. McLaren. : : I am so ashamed of my suspicions of carnality. Innocent square dancing and I think the worst. : And I'm from Kentucky where our 65-year-old governor is embroiled in a sex scandal. So you can understand why my thoughts turn in that direction.
