"Ralph Wiggum" is the seventh track of The Bloodhound Gang's 2005 album Hefty Fine.
It is composed almost entirely of quotes from the character Ralph Wiggum from the animated show The Simpsons, except for the chorus "Ralphie, get off the stage sweetheart" which is spoken by Ralph's father Chief Wiggum in the episode "Homer's Enemy", and the bridge "Yvan eht nioj", which was an subliminal message ("join the navy" backwards).
This was placed in an song by the short-lived band that Bart, Milhouse, Nelson and Ralph were involved in the episode "New Kids on the Blecch". Acknowledging the fact that it is found poetry, the song is credited to many Simpsons writers. While most reviewers slated Hefty Fine as a whole, "Ralph Wiggum" has been singled out as a positive highlight of the album.[1][2]
