The Doo-wop code is a secret form of communication in which every letter of the alphabet is replaced by a cryptic syllable. The alphabet would be coded as:
Dop
Nah
Dep
Ding
Ah
Hop
Scoo
Doh
Yeh
Me
Shop
Bom
Be
She
Doo
Shoo
Mmm
Dook
Boop
Pop
Bop
Hey
Wop
Dow
How
Oh
To communicate
using the Doo-wop code, you spell out your message by singing the syllables in down-tempo swing-time. Anyone listening will think that you're practicing the bass part for an a cappella doo-wop group, and not even realize that you're sending a coded message.
Here's an example:
Pop doh yeh boop
Yeh boop
Dop
Boop ah dep dook ah pop
Be ah boop boop dop scoo ah

Mr. Bass Man, you've got that certain somethin'
Mr. Bass Man, you set that music thumpin'
To you it's easy when you go 1-2-3, d-d-b-bop-a-bop
|
|
| |
Mr. Bass Man, you're on all the songs
B-did-did-a-boom-boom, B-dit-dit-a-boom-boom-bom)
Hey Mr. Bass Man, you're the hidden King of
Rock 'n' Roll, d-d-b-bop-a-bop
(Bass voice: No no, b-b-BOP-p-p-bop bop bop...) |
|
| |
It don't mean a thing when the lead is singin'
Or when he goes "Hi-yi-yi-yi-yi-yah"
Mr. Bass Man, I'm askin' just one thing: |
|
| |
Will you teach me? Yeah, the way you sing?
'Cause Mr. Bass Man, I wanna be a bass man too
d-d-b-bop-a-bop |

"This is Big Jay McNeely, do you copy; Over."
"Buddy Bailey, this is Big Jay McNeely, do you copy, over." |
|
| |
But if you're requested to spell out your sectret message on a bad connection: |
|
| |
Pop doh yeh boop, etc. becomes shoo-doo-shoo ah-doo-doh how-ah-doh nah-doo-doo-shoo, etc. |
|
| |
And if you're then asked to even spell that out: |
|
| |
shoo-doo-shoo, etc. becomes boop-doh-doo-doo - ding-doo-doo - boop-doh-doo-doo, etc. |
|
| |
I alway hoped that 'A wop bop a loo bop A lop bam boo' might mean something, though. |
|
| |
it does! someone enlighten him! |
|
| |
This rather reminds me of Mickey The Fish's idea for revising the phonetic alphabet (see link). Just replace each letter with an awoop boop coop doop etc. |
|
| |
So who DID put the bop in the bop shoo-wop shoo-wop? |
|
| |
Same dude what put the ram in the ram-a-lam-a-ding-dong, presumably. |
