This song was one of a string of singles released by The Coasters between 1957 and 1959 that dominated the charts, one of the biggest performing acts of the rock and roll era . </P> <P> The song is a "playlet," a word Stoller used for the glimpses into teenage life that characterized the songs Leiber and Stoller wrote and produced . The lyrics describe the listing of household chores to a kid, presumably a teenager, the teenager's response ("yakety yak") and the parents' retort ("don't talk back")--an experience very familiar to a middle - class teenager of the day . Leiber has said the Coasters portrayed "a white kid's view of a black person's conception of white society ." The serio - comic street - smart "playlets" etched out by the songwriters were sung by the Coasters with a sly clowning humor, while the saxophone of King Curtis filled in, in the up - tempo doo - wop style . The group was openly "theatrical" in style--they were not pretending to be expressing their own experience . </P>
