Comedy (from the Greek: κωμῳδία, kōmōidía), as a popular meaning, is any humorous discourse or work generally intended to amuse by creating laughter, especially in television, film, and stand-up comedy. This must be carefully distinguished from its academic definition, namely the comic theatre, whose Western origins are found in Ancient Greece. In the Athenian democracy, the public opinion of voters was remarkably influenced by the political satire performed by the comic poets at the theaters. The theatrical genre can be simply described as a dramatic performance which pits two societies against each other in an amusing agon or conflict. Northrop Frye famously depicted these two opposing sides as a "Society of Youth" and a "Society of the Old", but this dichotomy is seldom described as an entirely satisfactory explanation. A later view characterizes the essential agon of comedy as a struggle between a relatively powerless youth and the societal conventions that pose obstacles to his hopes; in this sense, the youth is understood to be constrained by his lack of social authority, and is left with little choice but to take recourse to ruses which engender very dramatic irony which provokes laughter.

Rock was born in Andrews, South Carolina. Shortly after his birth, his parents moved to Crown Heights, Brooklyn, New York. A few years later, they relocated and settled in the working-class area of Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. His mother, Rosalie (née Tingman), was a teacher and social worker for the mentally handicapped; his father, Julius Rock, was a former truck driver and newspaper deliveryman. Julius died in 1988 after ulcer surgery. His younger brothers Tony, Kenny and Jordan are also in the entertainment business. His older half-brother, Charles, died in 2006 after a long struggle with alcoholism. Rock has said that he was influenced by the performing style of his paternal grandfather, Allen Rock, a preacher.

Here's looking at you kid
You got the German measles
It's a comedy
Ich brech' es auseinander wenn's von sich aus nicht mehr hält
Und schaff' den alten Plunder um die Ecke
Bleibst du in der Stadt so hau' ich von dir ab
Auch wenn ich mich im Dunkeln nach dir strecke
Durch die Eingangstür gesegelt kommt mein linker Schuh in Schwung
Der rechte würde so was niemals machen
Billig war das Leder und die Schritte noch sehr jung
Unerfahren in komplizierten Sachen
Die Comedy auf deinen Lippen verlangt eine von meinen Rippen
Für die Königin!
Leise hab' ich mir gedacht will ich dich verzaubern
Schnell und laut das wär' zu offensichtlich
Doch dann aus Versehen abgerutscht glitt ich dir zu Füßen
Unterm Tisch da war das alles nicht mehr wichtig
Pausenlos weggeguckt alles übersehen
Der Startschuß hängt noch klitschnaß auf der Leine
Ein Katzenjammer aussichtslos bettelt um sein Glück
Und erinnert mich ganz deutlich an das meine...
Die Comedy auf deinen Lippen verlangt eine von meinen Rippen
Für die Königin!
Für den Allmächtigen!
