Comedian Gabi Shiner Releases Viral Song Parodying Lana Del Rey
Brooklyn-based comedian Gabi Shiner released a comedy single yesterday, “Oh, Shit (It’s The Kids I Babysit),” which has quickly gained attention for its remarkably accurate imitation of Lana Del Rey’s musical style.
The song opens with a detailed and provocative list of intimate acts before abruptly shifting focus to the realization that the narrator is late picking up children from soccer practice. The lyrics detail a series of escalating events, including a trip to a local mall to steal liquid eyeliner and a plan to run away from home with the children, who are described as surprisingly sophisticated for the offspring of OB-GYNs. The setting is specifically placed in the Greater Boston suburbs.
This release arrives as fans continue to await Lana Del Rey’s long-anticipated project, initially titled Lasso and later Stove, which has faced multiple delays. Del Rey told W Magazine in a recent interview that the album is now tentatively slated for a possible debut at the end of January 2026, though its ultimate release remains uncertain. The ongoing wait has fueled speculation and a dedicated online following, as detailed on Billboard.
Shiner’s parody offers a humorous alternative for fans eager for new music in the style of Del Rey, and highlights the artist’s enduring influence on contemporary pop culture. Representatives for both Shiner and Del Rey have not yet commented on the song.
