Can a Nigga Get a Table Dance?

Heh. This is actually a real song. It is probably most famous for being the focus of a most excellent Chris Rock sketch on HBO's Chris Rock Show. The sketch is a spoof of HBO's Taxicab Confessions series, and stars Rock as a taxi driver who goes out of his way to make his passengers uncomfortable and then film their reactions. In this one, a little old (white) lady gets in the cab. After starting out, Rock asks her if she minds if he puts on some music, to which she replies something along the lines of "oh my, no."

So he does.

This is the song that blasts out; the title lyric first and repeatedly (and loud). Rock starts grooving in the driver's seat. At this point, the lady notes that she teaches poetry, and loves rap music, considering it modern poetry, and starts grooving too! Rock nearly loses it, especially when she gets out of the cab and tremulously asks the night "CAN A NIGGA GET A TABLE DANCE?!" in a little old lady voice.

The song is by, I believe, 2 Live Crew.
