词源 | Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini. A 1960 hit song written by Paul Vance and his songwriting partner Lee Pockriss. The song was about a girl with a new kind of bathing suit, one so different and skimpy that she was afraid to come out of her locker wearing it. The bashful girl was based on Mr. Vance’s wife Rose, who was thinking of buying a bikini and ner- vous about it. |
