I just figured this lyric out this week. fresh jar of skippy. I had no idea what he was saying for the longest time. I even thought the word could be “hippie.”

Since Bruno Mars makes the comments ” Stop and then pouring alcohol into his glass in the song it only makes sense that he is referring to a drink. The drink known as a “Skippy” fits since it is made with fresh Lemons and then Ice then blend it and add the Vodka and last the Beer. So that explains the “Fresh drawn Skippy” comment in the song. “Smoother than a fresh drawn Skippy.” Especially since there are references to how “Hot” it is……So it is definitely the drink and not the peanut butter!! End of story.

It’s fresh “drawn” Skippy made with fresh drawn kegger beer and fresh lemonade along with the vodka or gin makes a smooth and palatable refreshing summer beach/barbecue drink made with readily available summer party ingredients. If you look closely at Bruno’s mouth when he sings this part of the lyrics, he’s almost surely saying the word “drawn” instead of “dry”.

Isn’t ‘jar’ urban slang for cup? So it could literally be a jar of peanut butter or it could be a drink in a cup! Clever lyric whatever the answer.

The CD sleeve of the official CD clearly states – smoother than a fresh jar of Skippy. The capitalisation of Skippy would suggest the brand of peanut butter.

The idea of Skippy PB made sense … until I realized that “skippy” was a drink. Remember the context. In the 2nd verse, he starts:
Stop
Wait a minute
Fill my cup put some liquor in it
Take a sip, sign a check
Julio! Get the stretch!
To then reference “skippy” fits, since he’s already talking about pouring a drink. I’ve seen it both ways. I think others nailed it, they’re just having fun with this!

Just bought the sheet music. According to Sony Music Publishing, it’s “fresh dry skippy.” Maybe they originally meant the drink mentioned above. But with all the chatter about a jar of Skippy and Bruno posting the photo, guess they’re having fun with us. In any event, it’s a catchy lyric!

I agree it’s hard to argue with that! I like the idea of the peanut better better, especially since my kids sing it all the time. Ha ha! It’s become slang at our house for something that’s really awesome. 😄

I may just be hard-headed but I still think it’s “jar of Skippy.” I listened to it again today over and over and it sounds like he’s saying “ah” instead of “eye” (“jar” vs “dry”). So I say let your kids keep singing about peanut butter!! It’s smooth!

I thought it was “fresh dry skippy”. Skippy is a cheap drink made with beer, vodka, and lemonade.
Though I can totally see the skippy creamy peanut butter thing too.
Also if you search lyrics it says fresh dry skippy. I guess I am confused.
