Rocko is the eponymous fictional character of the cartoon Rocko's Modern Life and the comic book series of the same name. Rocko was born in Australia and emigrated to America in High School. He was pitched to Nickelodeon executives as having the personality of a young wallaby Woody Allen. Carlos Alazraqui provided the voice of Rocko in the television series.
Rocko first appeared in a never-released comic, where he has the name "Travis".Joe Murray, creator of Rocko's Modern Life, believed that the personality of a wallaby suited Rocko after observing a zoo wallaby "minding his own business" while elephants and monkeys "screamed for attention." After the event, Murray said that "[i]t kind of clicked. Rocko would be at the center of the hurricane of everything swirling around him. He'd be like the everyman who's affected by the dramatic personalities around him."
Murray wanted to get his comic into syndication. Afterwards Murray made substantial changes to Rocko. Murray added that the personality of a wallaby mirrored Rocko's humbleness and his tendency to keep his frustrations to himself instead of publicly complaining about them.

Genres: Thriller,[Speaking: Rocko]
Aye, my name is Rocko, and I'm a addict
I'm addicted to money, I love fast cars,
I love jewelry, I love pussy, but I don't love these women
I don't know what it is about me, I don't know
That's just somethin' that I just, I just can't do it
I just can't help it, know what I mean?
I refuse to be in a committed relationship
Because I just, I, I just don't like, I don't like that shit, know what I mean?
I'm sorry... I need help
[Verse 1:]
Ayyyyeee
We ain't goin' steady, we just be fuckin' 'round
Yeah the sex great but damn babe we fuckin' 'round
Girl you got me hot, poppin' up at my spot,
You out yo got damn mind, what the fuck is you thinkin' 'bout?
You've been misinformed, sorry if you read me wrong
I told you what you wanted to hear, sorry if I lead you on
Yeah that pussy good, girl I ain't gon' lie
But if you are lookin' for a dude, girl I ain't yo guy
I'm not gon' come over every day, I'm not gon' talk to you
On the phone all the time, you fuckin' stalker you
Look I ain't tryin' to be rude, but I ain't tryin' to eat your food
I'm gon' keep it funky with you, girl we ain't that cool
[Chorus:]
We just be coolin' it, we ain't goin' steady
Just hit my phone when you wanna play, girl you know I'm ready
We just be fuckin' 'round, girl you know better
You ain't my main squeeze, it ain't like we go together
You just my lil' buddy, we ain't goin' steady
Girl we just be fuckin', we ain't goin' steady
You just my fun girl, and me and you know better
We just be kickin' it, it ain't like we go together
[Verse 2:]
I'll chill for a few; I'll stay for a second
Time is of the essence, no time like the present
Do a lil' score or you could do a lil' chore
We can make a movie, then I'm a keep it movin'
It ain't you baby it's me, me, me, central
After we get through just leave me alone
Aye, she textin' me like crazy, sendin' me them smiley faces
I'm yo Boyfriend #2, just here to Pleasure you
I need a naughty girl, fun girl that like to play,
A real party girl, just to cool it with
Whenever you ready to play just hit my phone, I'm ready
But don't be catchin' feelings baby, we ain't goin' steady,
[Chorus:]
We just be coolin' it, we ain't goin' steady,
Just hit my phone when you wanna play, girl you know I'm ready
We just be fuckin' 'round, girl you know better,
You ain't my main squeeze; it ain't like we go together
You just my lil' buddy, we ain't goin' steady
Girl we just be fuckin', we ain't goin' steady
You just my fun girl, and me and you know better
We just be kickin' it, it ain't like we go together
